Brand New Event - Love Across The Stars

Heres the thing...

I have been considering putting on a vintage toy event for awhile now. My New Years resolution is to make this happen. I have a mate who does a vintage arts and craft fair once a month and she is currently getting me up to speed on how to organise a fair.

So, just putting this out there. I am looking to put on a Star Wars themed event around the middle of Feb in Christchurch. Vintage toys Star Wars and other lines (Heman, Thundercats etc you know the score)

So far got a hall booked (in principle). Refreshments booked (in principle) and Dorset Troopers in mind to walk around for photos etc.

My question is, any of the usual traders fancy a stall? PM me. And any interested forum members fancy a trip down to the coast?

FFS what gives, Christchurch what is it with you bloody southerners, been waiting & hoping for another vintage fair/even to happen for forever & now its going to be right next to where the other is held :? not trying to be negative, but it may as well Glasgow for me as its a 600+ mile round trip,so sadly I am out in the cold as usual, can't one of you sort somewhere in the midlands out so its good for more to attend PLEASE, hell even there's 400+ mile round trip for me but I'd do it, 600 is just a non starter sadly.

Yours guttedly Frunk

PS how about North Wales

Frank, this year I drove to a wedding in North Wales with my ex partner moaning in my ear for the 6 or so hours it took to get there. And there was no vintage Star Wars at the end of it, just a boring ol wedding (no offense to the couple involved lol)

Here's what you do. You book up a nice BB. It's Feb so will be cheap as chips. You get a river view/seaside view/new forest view..whatever floats your boat. You bring the misses (offering a romantic weekend away). While she's tucking into the surf and turf, you drop that theres a really cool show you want to go to. She says yesssss, all breathy like.

Its a win win Frank

I have nothing to sell but will certainly be there.

Is there an actual date in place for this yet? Will try and make it work and get down to support

No date yet. Just working through it and dipping my toe for interest

I will do my best to try to support this.

Although I'm not so sure about the title. Sounds a bit like some sort of singles night.

lol I was trying to make a feb valantines and Star Wars connection

Needs work

Lee Bullock and myself had talked about setting one up in the Midlands - there seems to be a lack of shows like this here.

We'd call it something like 'TITS & TOYS', in the hope we could cater for both lecherous fans of bongo mags and vintage toy collectors - I believe there's something of a crossover.

Thoughts?
