Nice advertising
I got some free advertising in the Essential Guide for Top Drawer Spring which says ‘See inside for the hottest prouduct trends for 2008’. My donkey illustration (‘Fun Donkey’ AP170) was used on pg 18 under the ‘Vintage’ section. It really helped as I had also advertised in the Exhibitor directory using the same donkey image - and I had a huge ‘Fun donkey’ banner on my stand. So people kept noticing me!
And here’s my advert in the Exhibitor Directory - on the same page as the you doo doll advert which I remember seeing on Dragon’s Den!!
I got to have a quick look around the show and some of the other exhbitors that I liked included:

Jemima and I went on a bike ride this morning. This is her mid-head-shake!!
We had my favourite meal for tea which is a Jamie Oliver recipe. It’s beef with pak choi, mushrooms and noodles, is very quick to make and is DELICIOUS (and hot!).
