The Great Glasgow Fair

[Eck]

A huge turnout, I would guess at around 100 through the door, possibly more, at times it was 2 deep at all of the tables, thoroughly enjoyable,some good chat and banter.
Many thanks to Douglas for hosting again, to Derek Hunter for getting me there and back and to the punters who supported us.

I can only echo Alec's words and thoughts about yesterday's Programme Fair in Glasgow. Despite terrible weather and the fact that some people were clearly working yesterday did remind me of 'the good old days' of Programme Fairs. There were plenty of customers ( certainly over100 ), representing a wide range of clubs - Third Lanark, Celtic, Rangers, Hibs,Hearts, St.Johnstone - and there was even one gentleman from London who confessed to being a Millwall supporter....and then proceeded to buy whatever he wanted !
It was good to catch up with old and new friends and contacts. Perhaps there was an element of risk in choosing this particular day but Douglas should be congratulated in judging things perfectly and for organising such a successful Fair. Many thanks are also due to Alec Boyd for publicising the Fair amongst his many contacts.
Yesterday's Fair built on all the hard work of John Holroyd and his excellent Fairs in Auchenleck and proved that there is a very bright future for Programme Fairs north of the border.
Many thanks for a great day,
Derek.
