Sat 10th Jun 2006

10:00 until 18:00

L - Shed, Bristol Industrial Museum, Princes Wharf, Wapping Road,
Central Bristol, BS1 4RN.

Could there be more of an outside thing going on this year, could there be more of a vegan bar-b-que thing, could there be more of a stage and music thing bigging it up, could there be live coverage of England v Paraguay in the World Cup, could it be balmy bristol summer weather, could there be a Paraguayan / South America themed thing, could there be some kinda fancy dress / best sombrero comp.

Did I mention the world cup being screened live at the fayre?

More details coming soon, see Vegan Bristol and Yaoh websites.

[boomer]

OMG not bloody football.

[alisont]

Football - noooooooo not my cuppa but plenty of other things to see and do there - will be too busy with yummy choc cake

Hoooray it's in the summer fantastic looking forward to it and it does not clash with any beach bum trips or summer camping.

Yeah, much better for me too in the summer! Went last year for the first time and liked it. If the weather's nice it might encourage more people to go!

[snaffler]

Looking forward to this year

[Mr Flibble]

I'm very skeptical about those v-babs. They taste minging enough to be real, i reckon someone's having a right laugh

[Gorilla]

i quite like those ve-babs: i haven't eaten meat for 14 years but they taste pretty fake to me

[aubergine]

I thought they were interesting for a change, but it'll be veggie burgers from now on I think.

[Lilac Hamster]

We hope to make it to Bristol this time though living near London we don't usually go that far away, our Bristol friends came to our New Year's Eve Party so we hope to go and meet them there in June.
Does anyone here (Gertvegan maybe?) know Shane and Heike from Bristol?

Lesley

[Kevster]

I suspect this year stall holders will have a better idea of what they can sell at a vegan fayre, and if they're unsure then to ask.

I think it's great the Bristol vegan fayre is in the Summer this year, i look forward to lounging around outside, dishing out some flyers and getting Bristol people along to the fayre.

BTW I know where to get the best chocolate cake at the Bristol vegan fayre!

[RedWellies]

BTW I know where to get the best chocolate cake at the Bristol vegan fayre!

Are you going to share this info?????

[LittleMissVegan]

BTW I know where to get the best chocolate cake at the Bristol vegan fayre!

Come on Kev lad spill!!!!

Please

Pretty please

Not that i'm obsessed with choccy cake or owt

[alisont]

I will be at Bristol, went last year and loved it I will no doubt be stopping the Sat night - would love to go to any meet up that might be on? I will prob pop into the fair both days and will have to visit Fresh and Wild whilst there for more supplies.........such good choice there! and some wonderful vegan muffins and cakes too

Id be happy to go for food,drink and chat, not too keen on clubs these days as cant stand smoke filled atmospheres for too long

Am waiting to see if the travelodge gets any £26 rooms - not keen on the £55 price at the mo!

Alison

[LittleMissVegan]

alisont i think I will probably stop the saturday night aswsell. If I find any cheap rooms I will PM you

Sam x

[gertvegan]

I will prob pop into the fair both days

Check the date again alisont.

[gertvegan]

Cheers Gert and thanks for sorting out the shirts.

No problem.

Theres a wee bit of info, and a pic of the shirt HERE, iF anybody else is interested.

[Zombified]

This will be my first time at the Bristol fayre. I've been to the Birmingham and London ones and people I talked to there told me Bristol is the best... I can't wait

[alisont]

I shall be on that train from Birmingham - roll on June! cant wait

[snaffler]

The best thing is that this year it will be in the SUMMER Winter is evil
LOL

[RedWellies]

Don't know if anyone has got one but if you need a great t-shirt then the "Vegan Bristol Fayre" one is fantastic.
Therefore i sent a PM to Gertvegan who said he had a few left and i have just bought a couple more off him. Andi (Happy Hamsters)

I've just bought a couple from Gertvegan too. I've tried mine on and think maybe I should post another pic of myself in the Sexiest Vegan poll I'm sure all who see me in it will come to the fayre!

[tabitha]

I know all of you have been talking about a get together, but will any of you be going to the Bristol Vegan Fayre? Im definitely going to go. We could all wear VF name tags

[alisont]

I will be there for sure - might stay the Sat night if there's anything planned like a meal out in Bristol?

Yep a meet up would be great

Alison

[Zombified]

I'll certainly be there. Look out for a large fella wearing a black "I think therefore I'm Vegetarian" Tshirt and lots of tattoos... that'll be me! Say hi

[gertvegan]

We could all wear VF name tags

Or Bristol Vegan Fayre T-Shirts.

[gertvegan]

might stay the Sat night if there's anything planned like a meal out in Bristol?

There may well be something happening Saturday night connected with the fayre, but not organised by Yaoh, so they can concentrate on the fayre itself.

[alisont]

Keep me posted! a meal out would be great

Am annoyed the travelodge are not including that night on their £26 room deal

Alison

[Tiggerwoo]

I'll be there, as long as I'm not at work.

[RedWellies]

There may well be something happening Saturday night connected with the fayre,

So, who's organising that, Gert? Or did you mean us lot are going to organise something between us?

[Vegan Chick]

Cant wait now, sounds great and I shall be there too. That chocolate cake sounds awesome yum yum. When I first turned Vegan, my best friend made me a 3 course vegan meal for my birthday (she's an omni) but loves veggie food, and she made me the best choc cake I have ever tasted.........Love it

[LittleMissVegan]

I am definatley, definately coming and will stop saturday night if something is happening. I am a Bristol Vegan Fayre virgin and it sounds fab! I can't wait. Might get myself one of those T-Shirts aswell!!!!Ooooh eck!- Only went to Birmingham and a couple of the London ones last year- Roll on June!!!!!

[tabitha]

We could have brightly coloured Veganforum teeshirts printed, then we would be like an elite vegan clan LOL. Actually thats not a bad idea about teeshirts.

[Lex]

I've just realised I'll probably have to be in Holland for work for a couple of weeks then -- but I'm going to make a special effort to come, even if it means popping back across to the UK for the weekend

[RedWellies]

Lex, that's excellent! See you there

[Barley]

I'll do my best to be there!

[Orange-powered]

aww I would really like to go but it's a bit far really to travel from York...and probably expensive on the train...would really love to go actually, and meet other vegans

[LittleMissVegan]

aww I would really like to go but it's a bit far really to travel from York...and probably expensive on the train...would really love to go actually, and meet other vegans

Ah go on- You know you wanna

[RedWellies]

Maybe there's a coach? Are they cheaper? Train tickets can be cheaper if you book in advance. I agree it is a long way though.

[Elektra]

looking 4ward to the bristol vegan fayre!!!! mist it last yr....vegan connexions are good to have! cant wait!

[alisont]

If you have a local vegan group ask about coach travel, I know the Birmingham veggies and vegans group booked a coach last year about £10 each return price - cheaper than the train.

I shall get a cheap train ticket and prob stop the Sat night?

[gertvegan]

I've added a press release from Yaoh about the fayre to the Vegan Bristol website, see www.veganbristol.makessense.co.uk/bvf06

Please pass it on.
