Bristol Vegan Fayre 2005

[gertvegan]

Plans are already afoot for the next Bristol Vegan Fayre, to be held at the L Shed on October 29th 2005. Entrance is free and further information will be posted on this site in early 2005. The show will once again be organised by Yaoh, with sponsorship from Essential, Wild Oats, Health Unlimited, Beanies and also the Vegan Society, who are holding their AGM in Bristol the day after. Our special guests for 2005 will be The Bristol Cancer Help Centre, who are celebrating their 25th year, and Vegfam, who are feeding the hungry without exploiting animals. This is from the Yaoh website. Updates when available.

Will you be going ??


If Yaoh aren't going to produce a Fayre t-shirt, I may well do. Its still 7 months away, but the sooner the word gets out there the better.

If anyone has any ideas for designs, or is willing and able to help design the t-shirt, please do share either here or by pm'ing me. It needs to be as simple as poss, with as few colours as poss, both to keep the printing costs to a minimum, as I may well be paying for them out of my pocket.

Would you be interested in having one, and helping to advertise the fayre, if so pm me with the size required.

Thanks

do you have company to actually produce the finished shirt, gert?

husband gets band tour shirts produced regularly so may have some companies that are quality and sensibly priced??

I've had a very good quote from a local company that will supply the shirts as well. Theres no animal bits and bobs involved in the printing, including synthetic inks.

Thanks to all that have volunteered to be models. There will 25 shirts to be seen around the country just from you guys n gals on here.

If anyone else fancies being a mobile ad for the fayre, or anyone that will be, that knows someone else, pm me. Thanks again.

I wish I had bought some art work to BVF 2004 to show you I will try a few ideas and send them to you if I get the chance but time is so short at the moment.

[gertvegan]

Thanks snaffler.

It looks like the shirts will be hemp, supplied by Yaoh and may well be for sale on their website.

Has anyone else got any ideas for deisgns that could be used ? It needs to be simple to both design and print, remembering that probably only one ink colour will be used to keep costs to a minimum.

[gertvegan]

The t-shirt count update is that 39 veganforumers wil be happily wearing a BVF 2005 t-shirt some time soon. Thanks again. I'm seeing a man about designs tomorrow and will let you all know more when I do.

I know its not for another 6 months, but who is thinking of coming along to the Bristol Vegan Fayre 2005 ??

meeeeee

is there going ot be any picture/graphic/logo on the tee shirt or just text? is there any chance of having a few different colour combinations to choose from?

[bulletproof]

i was thinking something kind of punk/militant

like

billet: prince's warf (or whatever)

time: 10:30 hours (or whatever)

playing on the whole 'militant vegan' thing

Its needs to be as simple as poss, probably with just the fayre name and date around a big 05 in old superstars tv show text(cos we're all superstars). All ideas considered, pm me. See you at the fayre if not before.

Yah woo!

[bulletproof]

and can there be text on thee back too? ^_^

[gertvegan]

and can there be text on thee back too? ^_^

I don't see why the design can't be on the back instead of the front, its just that each different design, printing both sides, and adding different colours etc etc is gonna increase the costs. I'll mention it though.

Where Brizzle I want to go def....I loved it last year but had very little pennies and so much to buy looking forward to it. Fingers crossed that all will be well at home with family stuff, i will be their promoting my new website which will soon be up Metalmungbean....

The only thing please dont all wish it to come round quickly not because its no good but I love the summer and want it last as long as possible the WINTER SUCKS I want to move to India for the duration of our next winter.

i'll probably be going although might not be trying to do it in one day this time, last time had to get up at 5am and didn't get home again till 10pm!!! well worth it though

[Poison Ivy]

Does anyone know what time it starts?? Do I have enough time to get from Sheffield to Bristol (by train) and not miss too much. Definitely not travelling back after the fayre though - so will have to find/book hotel type thingy

[firejuggler]

I think it starts at 10 am - 5pm any free food is hossed down throats by 10.30 dam gutsy vegans

[Poison Ivy]

Hmm, so realistically speaking by the time the train has arrived in Bristol,then go and get booked in at the hotel then made my way to the Fayre it'll be about 1pm, so will miss first three hours - bugger

[firejuggler]

Try and suss what places are around to stay at before you get here then you can always book ahead via telephone and go later, no rushing around the train station is fairly close to the BVF.....oh no I forgot if a female stays out for just one night its like mission impossible with luggage just kidding I will duck before I get a wap on the nose.

Gerts a more local knowledge guy he may know of places and he knows Tim who runs it pretty well so I am sure those two know of some place in Bristol - local people local knowledge propper Vicky Pollard Bristolians

[Poison Ivy]

Yep, will be booking the hotel ahead, been looking at one thats about 1/4 mile from Train Station and the price is reasonable (£45) but it would be nice to check in before and dump my bag (note singular 'BAG' - I travel light - cheeky beggar!! ) before heading off for the fayre.
