Victorian Christmas Market at Kelham this weekend. Anyone going?

My friend is manning the stall for the Cats Protection League complete with victorian dress, I might go along and have a giggle at her.

 

Can I ask what this lady's name is? If it's who I think it may be, I know her as well.

I thought so too, but I checked the website the other day and it is definately on, and in fact the funds raised are to help with the flood damage.

 

I don't expect all of the areas to be accessible as they normally are, but all the same, it's a great way to pass a coupla hours

Thought Kelham Island had closed down for a year because of flooding. Might try and get there Sunday if possible.

Nope, not the person I thought it was. She has dark hair.

Well a lovely afternoon was had by all.

 

I'm now laying down for a bit as I have a migraine due to my son playing up, but other than that we had a fab time.

 

I only wish I could have bought some of the Jamaican Banana fritters but at this point in time, they don't sit well with Weightwatchers.

I won all the prizes on the tombolas!!! Well 5 anyway:hihi:

It was great to see it running this year after all the damage they had and I hope that they can restore the River don engine soon as I really missed seeing it go:(

 

It's a pity Mr Dibnah isn't around anymore I bet he would have helped and made a whole TV series out of getting it up and running.

 

I must add that today is the first time I've seen a ferret wearing a santa hat:hihi:

[Angilaruk 10]

LOL

 

We won 4 tombola prizes

 

I said the same about Fred Dibnah too ....... were you following us??? LMAO

 

My OH loved it and he's never been before. I could've cried when I saw the big steam engine looking so forlorn <sigh>

 

I got choked as we walked indoors, coz I knew that Fred Pass wouldn't be there this year. What a wonderful surprise to see his wife there all the same. So that choked me all the more.

 

All in all, it was a great way to spend the afternoon. Some lovely pictures by a local artist was on sale too, and they are fantastic. I would urge anyone that loves old pics of Sheffield etc to visit his stall, it's on the outside near where the entrance to the engine room is.

 

Now I need a nice cuppa yorkshire tea
