Book sales Feb, live and online

Here’s something you don’t see every day, a Polaroid photo taken by one of the punters at the Royal Bath and West showground, Feb 8th. It may not have developed fully because it was so bloody cold!

A freezing day in the big hall at the Royal Bath and West Showground near Shepton Mallet, which clearly doesn’t warm up. Lots of families and kids so I did well. These sales are all books or caricatures (@£2) with no original art. Card and cash.

Another freezing day, this time in a sports hall, and with about a third as many punters as last weekend in Shepton Mallet. Less than half the takings, and really hard work to make these sales. No original art (though I had it with me this time) so a lot of caricatures @£2 making up the total. Also books hadn’t arrived from Lulu so no Space Elains, Doctor Who colouring and a couple of others.
