Set up a Greens stall at the Chandler Markets on Sunday. It was a fly away success. It blew a gale so yes, pun intended.

The wind wreaked havok for many of the stall holders (including us), but it all went well and I will definitely be returning in a fortnight. The Ekka is over now, so the winds will also soon die down.

It seems like the election will either be October or November now, so the 4am starts over a long period might be hard yakka, but the tidbits of information I received from those who came up and chatted were valuable. Thanks to all who made time to come up and say hello and share their concerns. It was well worth the dark start.

Please do feel free to pop in and say hello on Sunday August 29. I’ll be there from 6am to 1pm.
