Thrifty Yorkshire Folks

Time Was... spent the day, Sunday 25th, at Doncaster Racecourse for another toyfair organised by Mike of MB Toyfairs.

In what turned out to be a very good day for us, in these recession hit times, I still say recession as the folks who came through the door were still a wee bit canny with their money. Thrifty to say the least. But despite that some old favourites sold very well, Gerry Anderson, Fantasy Figures and of course Doctor Who.

Pity about the Star Trek items we had. We actually bought more Star Trek than we sold, well ok no sales isn't difficult to beat. But we have a Star Trek event coming up in October in Manchester so they will come in handy.

If you do make it to Doncaster Racecourse for a toy fair or that other thing they do there, I think it's race horses for some strange reason, have a bacon and egg butty, well worth it for an empty stomach. But don't buy one until you've been to our stall as we have plenty of bargains from the world of Sci-Fi & Fantasy.
