Island Booth at the Market, 24 Mar 201224 Mar 2012 It was hot down at the market today. We met wedding guests, family groups, holidayers and caught up with some regulars. Our Mike TV glasses and skeleton hands made a brief appearance, but pic of the day goes to the ‘melon-heads’. Special mention to our ‘professional boothers’ - you know who you are :).

Empire Market, 16 Mar 201216 Mar 2012 The rain may have put market-goers off tonight - tho' thanks to Geoff and Tia an extra couple of marquees sheltered the picnic tables. This week we got a chance to finish the Empire strip design, and Justine carried out routine ei-maintenance. We also snapped a few birthday pix and fun shots before the movies.
