This was not a datelined fair but there were some favourable comments regarding the quality of stock, and the vast majority of exhibitors rebooked for next year when Barnsdale will be staged three times.
Wendy continues with her initial fair at Uppingham Town Hall on the last Sunday of the month and the one she added earlier this year at King Edward VII School, Melton Mowbray, Leicestershire, which is held four times a year.
Bread upon the waters
