It's all going on in Ashburton today!
But we weren't there for the Ale Tasting!
(That particular avenue of pleasure was 'out of bounds'...LOL!)
This was our reason for going...
It's a new event which I didn't know about until Amanda mentioned that she would be there!
We arrived early but it was already in full swing and very busy indeed!
Whilst I was there I enquired about having a table at the next 'Bizarre Bazaar'...but that's on the weekend of The Homespun Fair at Portscatho...so I'll hopefully sign up for the one after that!
It was a really good event with a good feel to it.
A trip to Ashburton would not be complete if I didn't set foot in the 'usual haunts'...however,I forgot my camera and the photos taken on my iphone are not great...so...I'm going back next week!
There's a new sewing shop in Ashburton . It opened today and sells fabrics galore and so much more.
A bustling little town which just gets better and better!
Finally, my last two giveaways.
Winners out of the hat, this morning, are:

Spooky .... I was about to write this comment when yours arrived!! Every time I see your photos, I want to pack a bag and come down for a visit (although Malcolm might object to that!)
ReplyDeleteLovely pix of Ash ... But you didn't show the Dartmoor Bookshop - that's where I head to when in Ashburton! Or Cafe Green Ginger for coffee & cake ...
ReplyDeleteNext time, forget the fabrics, forget the knick-knacks and vintage doo-dahs, and look for books and cakes, har, har! (Only joking, Sal!)

Looks like a good fair. I am always too scared to ask if I can take photos of stalls or n shops in case they think I'm casing the joint or I am mad!
ReplyDeleteGlad someone does though or blog land would be dull!

Loved the tour of the bizarre bazaar something that I would love. Ashburton is just as gorgeous as I remember it. Thanks for the reminder of such a fab place Sal.
ReplyDeleteWhat a great trip out. Can I ask..... what are the cute little boy and girl with the sweetcorn for (7th photo down)? I clicked on them because I liked the look of them, but can't make my mind up just what they are. I see a little hook under each one.........
ReplyDeleteLooks like another trip to Ashburton!
