Yes, here we are again! and once again the weather was glorious (what's going on?).

This time the organisers made a mistake and accidently gave us 7metres by 4 metres, the extra space was a real luxury.

One customer early on wanted to know if our Le Creuset teapots were non drip? So Lee put it to the test by pouring water from a vase of flowers into the teapot for the lady to "test" pour back into the vase. As hard as she tried it would not drip.  After saying "Thanks" she walked off not buying one!

The story was related to every customer who then showed interest in our teapots about the Lady who put Lee to the test and then didn't buy!

Imagine Lee's embarrassment when she returned later in the day and bought one!  Lee told her what he had been saying and fortunately she laughed.

We were also visited by none other than Jean-Christophe Novelli.  After one of his cooking demonstrations he found time to come across and spend time with all of the traders.  He was an absolute gentleman.  Having signed our Banner he also gave Iwona a kiss on each cheek, needless to say she didn't wash her face for a week after.

If you saw us there get in touch and let us know, we have made so much progress with our website since seeing you there.  Again we listened, and to those who said Le Creuset was just a little bit too expensive for them, Iwona is in the process of adding some 3,000 cookware products.  This is going to take some time, so if there is anything you are looking for and its not on the website, please get in touch, we are sure we can get it for you.
