craftyribbons
Good morning everyone, how are you all today?
I am a little refreshed after the Exeter show, I do find them tiring – just getting old!
Did you see what my mean staff did to me on Wednesday?
They posted this on Facebook
They said I looked like Bubbles the penguin! Tut!
We had a visitor at Exeter, a trainee member of staff.
Mollie was so delighted she had a money belt “Ali it has money in it!”
She came to help us on Friday afternoon, but it was rather quiet, “Ali I want more customers”
Ummm Mollie we all want more customers, the sun was shining so I think everyone had gone home early.
So Mollie decided to go off swimming, I think several exhibitors would have been happy to join her.
She returned on Saturday afternoon and was delighted to see a full stand.
She soon got into the swing of counting 6 ribbons and only asking for £5.
She even had to fold over the top of the bags and tell the customers to enjoy their ribbons.
She truly charmed the customers.
The only small problem………………….
…….she was not keen on giving change.
”Why Ali?”
But we got there in the end.
Overall Exeter is a very pleasing show, great to see so many returning customers.
Although I did get asked if we were new…….this was our 18th year!
Have a great day.
