River Cottage Autumn Fair Stall.

This weekend I was at River Cottage HQ

as a demonstrator, I wasn't holding a placard

and shouting Vegetables have feeling too!!

I took the small wheel and demonstrated

Pottery throwing 

to anyone that was interested.

 I took only pots that I felt would appeal to people who loved their cooking.

 Pancheons, Lipped bowls, Pie dishes & Ramekins

 It proved to be a great show, the weather on the Saturday

was brilliant, no wind and warm sunshine.

 We had decided that Marion would keep the workshop open

because we felt that was the right thing to do, so I manned the stall

myself on the Saturday which was hard work.

As it turned out sales in the workshop were very poor

so on the Sunday we decided to close the workshop

and Marion came to the show with me.

 I didn't see much of Marion as she was off and about around the show

she said

"I seemed to have everything under control."

She came back later and said we were picking four Chickens up

next weekend.

So I suppose I'm gonna have to start making Egg Cups again!

 

 These chaps were opposite my stand and I got quite fond of them

they make a funny murmuring sound

and Fart a lot, but they were still cute.

after a busy day it's a long walk back up to the car park.

But we had a great couple of days

and the rain kept away on the Sunday

which was a real bonus.

People Loved our pots and someone should

tell Hugh about us, because everyone thinks

he should be using our pots.
