After twelve hours of continuous heavy rain we eventually
set up the stand at 11am on Friday morning more in hope
than expectation. However the weather improved and
although Friday was much quieter than last year it was
still worth while being there. Saturday dawned a much
better day and the crowds rolled in and we were busy all
day. We received a donation of a huge box of chewing
gum from Radio Tay and that along with the sweeties
meant that everyone left the stand with a smile on their
face.
We had over 500 taking part over the two days and many more being aware of our presence at the show. We all enjoyed the fellowship and it was a fun thing to do.
Some Facts -- There were 250 6 inch nails weighing 8kg. The straw bale weighed 200kg There were about 20 winners each winning £5. We gave away about 600 sweeties. After expenses the total raised was £310.
