Berwick St.John Country Fayre

 

15th & 16th September 2012

 

 

Another stand at another show this time at our most local event.

 

Berwick St.John Country Fayre is a biennial event, it's run by several Directors and a dedicated team of Committee members, with the entire local community getting involved - and they do an amazing job!!

 

 

This is the second time that Julie aka Mrs Ridley and Ben took a stand at the show, being a very local event I can say they had a very busy day, chatting to people they know and new people to the Fayre. 

 

There was a lot of interest in the stand especially with  Ben's new 'Pergola' on show along side his 'Free standing raised bed' and 'Jack's Bench' which had it's first showing at the Gillingham and Shaftesbury Show last month. 

 

Mrs Ridley had sold the 'Pergola' within hours and several enquires for more and 'Jack's Bench' had a sold sign on it within the day and the 'Free standing raised bed' has had the phone back in the office ringing.  You can see why by the photo's below.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Ben also managed to find the time to have a drive around on his Caterpillar D2 which he was exhibiting at the Fayre.

 

 

 

From all of us at Ridley Sawmill we would like to say a big thank-you to everyone who stopped by the stand and hope to see you all again in two years time.

A very wet day!!

A good day was had by all at the Gillingham and Shaftesbury Show. 

By two o'clock in the afternoon the persistent torrential rain and wind had finally eased and given way to blue skies (and a few clouds by the time we left) coats were taken off and wet clothes were hung up to dry. 

The wet weather and rain didn't dampen spirits

Even the kids enjoyed them selves

We just felt a little sorry for the people parked in the fields
