The Last Gin in DundTeacups

It was a good day - apart from the sadness and disappointment of knowing it would be no more.
 There were 'new to me' stalls including these braw ladies and their Awfi Braw cards,
and these braw lassies - I hadn't seen the arty gal before, but I'll recognise her, her work and her wee Superman if I see them again. I had noticed her neighbour, the very well presented candle and pincushion stall, on FB before but didn't note the name. Sorry!
I usually notice names but I was busy with customers so I think I did well just to get pix - if you have the names, please leave them in the comments or on FB and I'll add them in. The one above  is Rural Reads & thReads, if you didn't recognise the format,
and this is my rail, with an embroidered silk nightie and a very vintage embroidered satin camiknicker slip in view. 
The stall above with eye catching Harris tweed bags and cushions is from Perth, her daughter told me - that's another presence I've seen on FB. The Victory Rolled lady to the right was on the vintage make up and hair style stall. 
Super Susan's Pepped up Studio was there from Newport with her gorgeous and very original painted furniture - and her sister's Soup (ingredients) for Sale - as well as her share pal Sheila, with a very original, reasonably priced wardrobe and under stair cupboard clear out, including a genuine 1970s Biba storage jar! 
Sister Vintage's eclectic stall and rail in front of Between the Devil and the Deep Blue Sea's rail
and Lovely Little Lottie, Baby Vintage . . . Awwww!
 Angel K, Infinity Anne and Carolyn from the Mearns
 Sorry to those whose names and pix I didn't catch and a special 'Hello' and 'Thank you' to the uniquely styled lady from Indulge Cupcakery Bakery for her gorgeous cakes, generous nature and multifarious goodies.
Hope we'll meet again, no matter where no matter when . . .

Thanks again to Sarah and Laurie,
 the Gin supremos and their banner carrying assistant, the Mighty Atom, whose diminutive presence in all weathers - remember the 2013 Mothers Day storm ? -  clears the streets of Dundee in a flash and draws them into Gin . . .
