This is always a difficult one, trying to get the chit chatters to move along without being rude. Blocking the entrance is obviously just silly as they're costing themselves sales but sometimes its unavoidable.

As an exhibitor, a few things pissed me off - firstly, when we arrived, the tables and chairs we had rented weren't anywhere to be found and we had to ask for them to be brought down to the booth. This costs time and delayed our setup which was aggravated by the passing chit chatters.

People picking up knives and axes and trying to re-enact some Hollywood movie - mate, you look like a tosser, put it down before you hurt yourself.
And finally, Mr Promises, the people that ask you to put it one side, they're just going to draw money and never return.

I dont mind people putting their grubby paw prints all over the merchandise, I have stuff to clean them with but when you intend picking up any merchandise, please finish your hotdog with onion, mustard and tomato sauce and wash you hands!

Apart from that it wasn't a bad day and thanks to all that popped past to say hi, sorry I wasn't able to chat more.
