No, not to Christmas – to the inaugural Late Summer Fair, here at L&F HQ. The excitement is definitely building as we prepare to host 15 stalls of local businesses in a final flurry of buying and selling before we all regroup ahead of the Christmas rush. Until we launched ourselves onto the scene five years ago we had no idea just how many other fledgling companies there were around us, working hard creating, thinking and planning in what have turned out to be really epically difficult economic times. Together we have faced a pandemic, followed by a global financial crisis and years of austerity and yet here we all still are, most of us, thanks to our own endeavours and to you, our customers. We could all do without the continued scourge of the internet hackers and fakes, and the uncertainty that always follows political upheaval and change, but we can’t wait to see what Sunday 8thSeptember brings. We’re rounding off the season with a quintessentially British afternoon in what we hope might be a bit of sun: in the name of two excellent local charities we have cream teas, Pimms, live music, silly dog related competitions (Waggiest Tail, Most Like the Owner etc), some gorgeous cars to admire, and most of all we have a chance for people to meet each other and see what we have to offer each other. And we don’t just mean commercially. If you’re anywhere near us, do come. 12-5pm, £5 entry – see you a week tomorrow!
