Onwards!!

I can't believe we are already a month into 2013 ...and I still have such a long 'to do' list before Vintage Marquees is ready for the next season! But..some progress has been made! The crew now have very stylish (!!?) polo shirts and jackets and I have also had logos printed to go on all our marquees (thank you Sarah and your sewing machine!) In that vein, I am in the throes of buying 25 lovely old deckchairs which will be covered with beautiful thick cream canvas and the VM logo to boot!! and will be available for hire this season.

I am shifting my stock round a bit. Due to popular demand I am hoping to buy a 30'x 50' marquee; traditional like all the others, but new and beautiful with windows like the Big Top. So I will be looking to sell some of my Indian pagoda marquees, and some of the little Jester tents, as well as the lovely
Raj marquee. Just contact me for any info... I will only be asking for what I have paid for any of these tents, all the old ones are genuinely old and much loved (ie kinda tatty!!)

Meanwhile, the bookings are coming in! July is looking busy already and due to the logistics of long distance travel, I am going to try to only take one long haul (!!) booking per week. Definitely more local advertising is needed..Bath, Marlborough, Malmesbury, Tetbury, Frome...here we come!
