Nostalgic Mix in Narnia ... sorry, Totnes!!. Don't forget to come along on Saturday 31st March!

A new piece of local graffiti which appeared last week! Not the first time that this statement has been made. It's met with a very mixed reception. Local folk seem to either love it or hate it!! Go to the Tangerine Tree cafe near to the market to buy one of Robert Davidson's photographs of this little gem.
No news regarding who did the dastardly deed ....... lots of suspects though!

Nostalgic Mix March 31st 2012. Totnes Civic Hall 10.00am to 4.00pm


Coming soon!! I will be putting this list plus more details of sellers onto a linked blog soon but thought it a good time to whet your appetite for a vintage inspired trip to Totnes!! I still have a couple of tables free (due to changed circumstances) so do get in touch asap if you would like to come along to join these sellers.

Quiet a number of those listed below are taking double spaces so it promises to be a hall full of goodies as usual.

Avril's "More Tea Vicar" tea shop will be creating her very own bit of retro, calorie laden heaven to make our happiness complete! (remember that if no-one sees you eat it there's no calories!!)

We will also be joined by Alice Roberton from" Homes and Antiques" magazine. She has taken a table to promote the magazine and will, in turn be featuring our event. We get a prior mention in the March edition on page ten.
