The Great British Bank Holiday

Today saw Time Was at Huntingdon Toyfair at the Wood Green Animal Rescue Centre just outside of would you believe Huntingdon.

A nice sunny day for an Easter Bank Holiday Monday and the sunshine did bring in the customers, but the bright skies didn't encourage them to spend. It is still a struggle to get folks to part with their hard-earned cash in these credit crunching times.

We did our best with a vast choice and array of the finest collectables this side of the road. Well ok it wasn't vast!! but the choice was there from Doctor Who, Scooby Doo and Ben 10 to fairies and dragons. It was a good job that there we had the fairies as they kept our head above water.

We were definitely below average for Huntingdon but by the sounds of it we were lucky not to do the Newark Toyfair yesterday, Easter Sunday. A stroll along the river at Boston was so much better, even if it was in the rain.
