Potteries GPR Xmas Fair Nov 18th 2023

All set for tomorrow!

Chocolate balls, Austrian vanilla and almond shortbread crescents, Christmas shortbread with a layer of mincemeat,
gingerbread guinea pigs, vegan/gluten-free chocolate and orange biscuits (still pack a punch in terms of flavour) for sale.

Chocolate/choc chip cake and a lemon and poppy seed cake for those who like to celebrate my birthday with me - you have to be nice to me, though! :D

See you!

Gosh you have been busy! 😋

I am bringing some apple flapjacks for anyone who'd like one, and 3 jars of gooseberry jam for sale for the Potteries' stall...

Hello all !
Not long now please make sure you seek me out on the day and say hello !
We have lots of lovely items again this year including a piggie fleece stall and lots of Guinea Pig theme items on our stalls.
I really can’t believe it’s been 12 months already.
Travel safe on the day.

This is absolutely gorgeous!
 
I’ve had a fabulous day catching up with you lot & helping out at the fair. I sadly failed to get photos of Wiebke’s cakes 🤦🏼‍♀️ but believe me, they tasted great! I did get photos of lots of stalls and will post photos. Thank you to everyone who came. And donated. And bought. And supported.

Well all the knitted piggies were safely adopted 😊
But there were a few beautiful hand painted Guinea Pig decorations left at the end of the fair. So I’ve brought them home and will create a thread to sell them on behalf of @The Potteries Guinea Pig Rescue

These are gorgeous BTW.

Had a lovely evening on Friday staying with @VickiA and helping set up for the fair.
I got to meet the beautiful Iris and 2 gorgeous babies 🥰

The fair was great fun.
It was lovely to meet up with forum friends & raise money for the rescue.
My husband is delighted with his box of @Wiebke ’s cookies and @Qualcast&Flymo ’s jam.

I bought myself a useful book too.

Thank you so much for coming and for all your donations. There were only a few items left at the end of the afternoon. We donated them to Pebbles Legacy Dog rescue who brought a couple of beautiful bulldog pups in to the fair this afternoon.

Hello All
Firstly a HUGE thank you to all forum members who visited our event today and to those who sent good wishes. Special thanks to Wiebke and Merabs slave ( Heather) for raising funds on their stall.
It totally worked folks because our total for today is …….£1200 🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳
That’s an amazing amount and secures care and rescue work right through the winter.
It was so lovely to meet you all today and as always I didn’t get as much time as I would have liked to chat as I’m so busy on event day.
I’m truly blessed with such a good team around me and supporters like yourselves.
I do hope there’s a meet up I can attend next year and hopefully see you all next November !!
Helen x
