Need the org's help ASAP!

Our mother and toddler group have a stall for Fun Day. But....we have no covering and we refuse to sit in the cold.

So does anyone have a gazebo/covering for our stall that we can buy or borrow?

Or even if anyone knows where we can get one that does not cost too much. Have checked argos and it would cost too much just for the 1 use.

Please help asap.

contact me by PM if you have any ideas!

Shelley, your best hope would be to contact someone from the Thurso Town Improvement Association (TTIA). In fact, are they not the organisers behind this event? Failing that, someone at your end of the county involved with the annual County Shows. I'm quite sure there are plenty of stall coverings going spare at this time of year if only you could get a contact name.

It's been a few years since I begged and borrowed similar on the Wick side so I'm afraid my contact list is out of date. Best of luck!

Get yourself some thermals as well Shelley. I can tell you through experience that it's perishing when you are standing around at a stall, especially at this time of year. Thick socks and plenty of layers of clothing and not forgetting the flask of coffee. Hope your stall is a success.
