little chickadee Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I won the village show housecraft cup again today so my name will be on it twice! I'm so pleased as my son was so upset when I had to give it back! The competition was a lot tougher this year and I think I'll have to up my game next Autumn. Has anyone else had any village show wins this Autumn? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 I did OK at the autumn show, few firsts and seconds and I think one third. No housecrafts in autumn though. I'm DESPERATE for a cup though - or even a commendation. I did best in the cookery sections in summer and I'm going to enter more of those next time to see if I can up my game there!

Old Speckled Hen Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Photography!!! Can we see your winning pictures? I've wanted to enter local stuff ever since I moved up here when I remarried but as an "outcomer" I'm scared stiff of village politics. Am I over-reacting? I'm doing the official pictures and album for my step daughter's wedding on Friday ... wish me luck ....please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bride's sister ... has decided she is too fat for pictures and says she now doesn't want to be a bridesmaid. Bride has told her, " not to bother coming to the wedding then". HELP!!! All the girls (another three bridesmaids) are here the night before the wedding. Mother .... husband's ex .... now wants to be in the same car as the bridesmaids which means she has to be here in MY house. AAAARGHHHH!!!!! No smilies...to tired to look for the appropriate ones except Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lesley Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Well done! - it's great having your name on the cup isn't it? I used to enter the local show and won the cup a few years running, but the show had to be cancelld one year and it's never started up again. I will be entering 5 classes in the local Honey Show on Friday though..........I'm really looking forward to it.......and I'd better go and look for some honey recipes........

Ain't Nobody Here Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 Congratulations . As has been mentioned, I'm unlikely to ever be joining you on the podium . I'm very impressed though! Good luck with your wedding photography, DA . Make sure the mother of bride photos are all really unflattering, won't you . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
