Hello again. Well, yes, Halloween time is here soon, and we are getting ready to put on a great show for visitors this Sunday, November 5th.

We have a great line up, so if you have the chance, call in to view and maybe buy too! This will be our final show this year, as we will be having a break, to return in March!

I haven’t got a spare coffin for halloween, but this Mahogany Cellerette is at least Sarcophagus shape, and is for sale, with a liner inside with six divisions!

Have a good week and hope to see you soon! Bye for now, Andy.

Friends return!

Hello folks!

Well, here we are again! Doesn’t that sound familiar? Just to let you know that John and Andrew are back with us again after a little break, so why not call in and see what new stock they have, along with our regular dealers.

We open at 10am on Sunday 3rd September, and close at around 4pm. Refreshments are served from around noon, and include sandwiches, tea, coffee and cakes! Hurry, or I’ll get there first!

Here is a photo of John’s stall a few months ago, when he was last with us.

Regards, Andy.

Watch Out!

Hello and Happy Friday Folks!

Should you have time on Sunday 6th August, and happen to be close enough to visit us in Bibury, Gloucestershire, we will be on show from 10 in the morning, to 4 in the afternoon.

Why “Watch out!” ? Well, just because you may well find a few timepieces, and here are some which most likely will be able to be seen on sale soon! Hope you have a good weekend, wherever you go, but it could be even better in Bibury!

Regards, Andy.

Gee Up!

Hello again, What is all this then?

Aha! Well, “Gee up!” pronounced as it sounds, used to be a way to get people to “Get a move on!” also for horses too as I recall, I don’t hear it much these days, but I smiled when I was cleaning this, a small jockey with his winnings, yes 10 thousand Guineas!

So, why not ride over to Bibury this Sunday and see what we have on offer? Open from 10am to 4pm, with refreshments, , or as I say “Coffee and Cakes!”  from around noon. 

See you there? Regards, Andy.

Fruity Friday?

Morning Folks!

Coffee time and oranges for morning munchies anyone?

Remember these at the market, they should be on show at the next Bibury Antiques and collectors fair, on Sunday August 6th. They make excellent shelves for display, or kitchen storage etc!

Not our usual style, but fun! Pop along to see us with some lovely jewellery, glassware, silver, pictures, rugs, furniture and maybe a clock or two!

Afternoon refreshments available too!

Thanks, Andy.

Bright Idea?

Hello all!

Several years ago a brass wall sconce was bought, and has sat at home near the fire ever since. Last weekend, I made a few candles from scraps of beekeeping beeswax foundation, and here they are, sitting alight. Fun! Hope you like it, the room smells of the wax now, and I will make more!

Should you wish to join us this Sunday at Bibury Antiques Fair, please do, but I can’t promise good weather, but there will be tea, coffee, cakes etc served for you from around noon, if dry, outside in the sun! More substantial meals can be bought locally, at the tea room, pub, or hotel.

Thanks, Andy.

We’re back on Sunday!

Hello! We are back on show this Sunday, July 2nd. Please pop in and say hi, we even have a visitors book now, so you can sign in, just for fun!

It’s nice to know where our visitors come from. Should you not have been able to see us last month, here is a snapshot, an aneriod barometer, and as the weather is changing, who knows what it will say on Sunday!

It’s looking like we have a good fair again, so I hope it will be enjoyed by all.

Bye for now.

Regards, Andy.
