Our small Victorian style side stalls have turned out to be one of our most versatile and popular additions to our portfolio of attractions. This was proven again today when we attended an event taking place in South Shields. It was organised by a North East events management company that we have worked for on a number of projects. Anyway, this particular one we were asked to provide a stall to fit in with the theme of healthy hearts. The budget we were allocated was pretty small, but nevertheless we still managed to have custom printed banner across the back of the stall. We also changed one of our coconut shy games into a knock the heart off (using softer balls than we would with the coconuts). Everything worked well and we had an enjoyable visit back to my native North East.

After the event finished we called in at a new Valentines funfair. Arthur was there with a couple of items of equipment. Business was steady, but there is still time for it to improve. The event itself looked well, with fencing around the complete site, an impressive entrance gate and a good selection of attractions from around the country. I hope it does well as it will benefit the business as a whole to have new events coming online, but I really think that this could be a summer that see things tight right the way through.
