Just over two weeks away now Do we have a plan for this yet? I seem to remember the space was quite tight last year.
I have the banner but what else should I be thinking about? I am trying to decide whether to train or drive. |

Are you coming Karen??? Yay!!!! You have just scared me saying that it is two weeks away!!!!!!
We were thinking that it would be good to go with the Christmas theme and maybe do Christmas decorations/stuff that could be used for Christmas prezzies??
I will have a clear out of some of my Christmas decorations at the weekend to try and get stuff to bring but if anyone else can have a clear out too and can get them to one of us/Kensington itself, that would be fab!!!
I don't know what the parking will be like. Last year we had to park in Battersea park (but that was when it was in Chelsea), just be sure and check the travel info if you are coming by train so that you don't get stranded like Sharon did last year!!!! |

I have a few Christmassy things left over from Hungerford - including some of Xristine's Mum's lovley little Christmas Pud choc covers. They look wonderful, all set out.(Sorry Xristine, meant to say before!!) I sold quite a few in Hungerford.
I think I have a few scented candles etc too.
There is a rumour that Janet might be joining us too  |

If you need more puds just shout and I'll get my mama on to them. It keeps her out of mischief...
Unfortunately, I can't come I have a surveyor coming here  _________________ "Plus je vois les hommes, plus j'admire les chiens."

Janet and I will drive up together. I sent an email out some time ago to all the school mums and as a result I am collecting quite a lot of child bric a brac - will sort through for anything boxed that might be suitable for Xmas pressies.
The link to the website seems to be broken - does anyone know if there were any instructions about unloading etc? |

There is nothing much on the website but they gave the wrong address, it is actually:
http://www.chelseaanimalcharitiesfair.co.uk/index.html
(Edited the above..thanks TinaD xxlynne)
there is a car park below the town hall and two others close by. I don't know how much they charge though. The kensington town hall website has their locations:
http://www.rbkc.gov.uk/venuesgeneral/general/find_us.asp
I have dug out some candles, the china bears and some ladies compact mirrors but we are a bit thin on the ground for gifts so if you have any, Karen, they would be handy.
I bought some Christmas biscuit cutters at the weekend so i will roll out some biscuits and make them into christmas shapes-you never know, they might sell better that way!!!! |

Pray for a hugh turnout
