Hi all
Well I have now recovered from the show!!! bear_original
It was fantanstic, overwelming and very tiring. i was a bit lost for words and that is not at all like me

Sales were very good and there was a lot of interest  as well as sales to shops :dance:

I am still in London staying with my friend Susan in Cookham Dean having a lovely time with fellow artists Laraine (Raine Bears) and Karen Alderson(Australia). I do not leave the UK till1st Oct.

It was great to meet a lot of TTs as well as many artists that I have admired for many years.
It was nice to meet Paula, Ellen, Suzi,Louise,Lynne,Ruth,Gail and Yvonne as well as Wendy and Megan. Also I made a few new friends.
Hugs
Tracey

Hi Tracey,

I'm so glad you enjoyed the show.  Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to speak to you (you seem to be very popular  bear_grin ), but I did have a nice chat with Laraine.
She told me all about your journey to Hong-Kong and how hot is was there (must have been quite a difference when you arrived in the UK  bear_laugh ).

Both yours and Laraine displays looked absolutely marvelous and I'm very pleased to hear that sales were good as well.

I hope you have a great holiday  bear_flower .

Hugs,  :hug:

It was lovely to meet you and Laraine on Sunday............and I'm glad you both had a good time (didn't we ALL?)...........but you're right - it IS a bit exhausting, isn't it? So MUCH going on.
I'm still trying to catch up - we got back Monday evening to find that we had NO computer link..........
Enjoy the rest of your holidays

Finally back home after a wonderful time in the UK. Tracey Karen and myself were taken to so many places we were very lucky. Hugglets was everything and more than I expected. Just wished I had the time to meet more artists. So many wonderful artists and so so many bears. I had a lovely day and a very successful trip and met some wonderful artists and collectors.

Off to Melbourne on the 23rd Oct for my last show of the year. Haven't even looked at bearmaking yet. I think now is a good time to start!!!
Looking forward to catching up with our UK host Susan in Melbourne.

Ruth.......Loved the Newmarket sausages bear_tongue  Had a lovely time with Gail.
