not a craft Google copy and paste is it? |
Weasel Fraudster Causes Disgraceful Discrimination at a Craft Sale in
the Brecon Beacons.
What does the above
picture have to do with a craft sale?
Any idiot with a computer, internet access, a colour printer and access
to someone who can either frame the picture or can buy frames can do this can’t
they?... In short, yes any idiot can, and this idiot (not me) does, and then
goes to craft sales attempting to lure people into buying their ‘crest’ from
him, with a little piece of blurb on their surname.
I watched countless
people go to this stall, look through the books, speak to the weasel, let him
shpeel on about their name and its heritage, I even saw several people
contradict what he was saying about their names, thus proving he really didn’t
have a clue about what he portrayed as his speciality!!! I mean, if you are going to try to fraudulently
sell something as your original work, and that you have done the research into
each name and therefore your work can not be contradicted what so ever as you
are the man in the know, you want to do it to the letter don’t you? Obviously not. This man it turns out – never sold a thing,
not a jot.
However, this
weekend, his not selling anything wasn’t put down to his poor work, his crumbling
awful product, or indeed his god awful personality… it was my children. Yes, my three children who were present, and
were not actually making any noise, they did run about the table once or twice,
but not that much, and indeed they didn’t run around the market hall, unlike
other craft seller’s children. So my
three children must have been so incredibly noisy that they prevented anyone
from hearing his bull… erm I mean well
informed information about their surnames.
Well, actually, if that were the case, then I wouldn't have sold squat
would I? Indeed I sold more things than
I’d ever done this weekend. My left hand neighbours, who were closer than the Muppet
selling some googled copy and paste work… sold many an item also. The gentleman
opposite me also sold many an item, so whom didn’t sell? The only one who didn’t actually do any craft
work, the man who didn’t put his hand to anything other than click, click,
click, click, not knitting either… then pressing print.
I am aware that
discriminatory law’s have been broken.
However, do I justify the pain of going through all that, just so that I
can have a table back somewhere I'm not wanted by all. Actually, that last statement isn't true. There were several crafter's who
were incredibly incensed by what had occurred, notwithstanding the outrageous
attack on my family, but the reason that the complainant was a fraudster whom
had little in the way of personable skills and not one of the other crafter's
had a nice word to say about him. Even
the café owner was upset, yes I bought cakes and coffee, but I actually got on
with her and generally had a good natter too….
I am not the only parent there, there are other mother’s like me who are
making and selling in order to keep the house above water and the wolves from
the doors. If I didn't do it, my
children wouldn't have the lovely presents they get, their clothes would be a
darned sight less than they are at present. So Mr Heritage, if you want war…
then I might just come to your baying. I
(if not as a seller) might well be at the March sale, stood by his stall with a
banner letting all know just how awful he is, and just what he did to my family
and my confidence.
As for on here? I know it’s a tad unprofessional, but, in all
honesty, I thought the crafting world a pleasant place where all were
friends. So to find a wasp amongst us
bee’s, it has really shock me to the core.
Please let me know if you have had a similar experience, or if you’ve
had a fellow crafter of your discipline complain about you for no other reason
than you’ve sold an item that matches theirs… (which might have been the other
thing – another sewist, had the same fabric as me as a cushion, as did I.. but
I’d embroidered mine, and I sold it lol oops)… again, wasps… buzzzzzzzz
wassppppssss - 'customer' clearly unimpressed with crock being told... |
