Festival at the Edge 2014

Well, it seems like no sooner we are setting up, then its time to pack away for another year – that is the way with Festival at the Edge! This year’s event was brilliant, we sold lots of things and saw some great acts, especially ‘Blackbeard’s Tea Party’ who we will endeavour to see again very soon. Friday when we arrived on site was sunny, hot and busy followed by a lovely, balmy evening. When we got back to the tent after seeing the band, we wondered if it was lightening or camera flashes we could see…it was lightening, followed by thunder and tremendous rain – a long and slightly worrying night under canvass! Saturday was a mix of thunder storms and brighter spells during which people ventured outside luckily, we managed to keep the books dry (ish) and the evening was fine as was all of Sunday which made up our trading time somewhat!

Memories of lovely people, great music, fab storytelling, epic breakfast baps and stormy weather will carry us through until next time.

What will the weather do?

Well, it is the great Festival at the Edge at Much Wenlock this weekend coming, but what can we expect from the weather this year? I have heard all kinds of reports from 'not too bad' to thunder and lightening (great in a tent)...so I guess its a case of wait and see! Whatever the weather it is a brilliant event, photos and report to come soon!

Rehome a hardback!

We have lots of great hardbacks to take to Festival at the Edge - but they weigh so much! Hopefully they will sell, all will be 50p and need re-homing (so we don't have to lug them back again :)).

Summer season.

Hi all, well summer is kind of here...weather being fickle as ever! We are gearing up for the fab Festival at the Edge in Much Wenlock which we are attending again in July, it is a great storytelling event over 3 days and is well worth a visit!

Ludlow Medieval Christmas Fayre 2013!

Hello folks, its that time of year again, Autumn is here, its dark earlier, colder, and Christmas is looming! We will once again be trading at the wonderful Ludlow Medieval Christmas Fayre next weekend ( 23rd and 24th November) in full costume with lots of lovely gift items and many books that need re-homing! We have both hardbacks at £1 each and paperbacks at just 50p plus a few books that are a bit past their best at 20p each! Come and say hello and grab a bargain.

Back to the blog!

Hello all, it has literally been an age since we last blogged - that is to change! Sadly we have had to close down our online shop due to it really not paying for itself, we are however still attending events and shows, the next one being at Ludlow Castle on August 11th for the Knights of the Damned Jousting Team, they are fab and we were at their event at Apley earlier in the year, fingers crossed for dry weather!
