Last Sunday saw Kettering FC take on the mighty Leeds United at home in the FA Cup 2nd round and if that wasn't enough it was live on TV, so if you couldn't get to the ground then it was available from the comfort of your warm, dry armchair. I take it a lot of folks did, as we had the misfortune to be at Kettering Toyfair that day, which although it was populated by a large number of dealers, the same couldn't be said for collectors. It was unfortunately a very wet set up and break down, whatever happened in between I couldn't say as there were no windows. It was also very cold in the Arena Sports Hall. All-in-all it was a very bad miserable day for Time Was...
Luckily though we were also at the Sleaford Christmas Market which proved to be a much better place and only three miles up the road. A steady trade in gifts and fantasy figures helped make a healthy profit. It may not have been as good as last years, something called a recession might have something to do with that, but it was far better than Kettering Toyfair.
