                      Today was a lot quieter than yesterday but still busy. It was exceptionally hot with almost no breeze and was rather uncomfortable to be sitting in the sun (it was pretty warm sitting in the shade).

                      We've more or less cleared up now. Marquee dismantled and folded and I need to arrange for us to get it back to them. Tables and chairs cleaned, folded and stack in the van and on the way back to the charity. Garden furniture put back in it's place. Sound system packed and gone. I've still got to take the other tables back to the village hall together with the tea urns, teapots, jugs, trays etc

                      All the unsold books have been stored away in the loft - 21 boxes of them.

                      All the money needs checking and accounts done - should only take a few hours.

                      Tomorrow we'll draw the raffle ( lots of prizes) and contact the winners. That usually takes about three hours.

                      When I have all the info I'll let you know how we did.

                      We're all shattered and off to another restaurant to relax.

                      Thanks for all your encouragement.

                            FM, just to remind you it was me that sold the idea of the head massage to you and also to let you know me and Newey stashed Issy in the car so we can have her on tap! (sounds a bit wrong :th scifD36: I meant her wonderful head massages on tap)
                            The shiney garden you bought was the one I had my eye on and wondered who got it? Couldn't have gone to a lovelier couple and it was great to meet you both. I did buy some individual succulents and with Mrs S's expert advice I shall have my own GCQ garden (will post pics when done!)
                            Give our regards to the Black Country and we hope to be up sometime for a visit!
