Business, business, business,...

In support of my wife's many businesses, on 15-16 May 2012, I was on location at UiTM Arau, Perlis, helping out with what ever that needed to be done. Transporting equipment, fetching flowers at 4am from Changloon bus station, sending spare change, organising the layout, putting up the tent, etc... and that's just starting the event. Closing is another story... which includes dismantling the tent, transport, cleaning up, arranging the store, etc.

Okay, enough talk, here's some pictures.

 Ribbons, ribbons, ribbons.... it looks even more grand in daylight.

 How the stall looks like from afar... the picture does not do it justice. Plus in the morning, all those racks were brought outside, so the location looks much larger.

 The Farming Association left some in a cage next to our stall.

 Yes, they are real... and purple too!

 I made these myself.... ?... don't believe me? The nerve... ;-)

These are real too, not plastic, but the colour is fake. These originally cream-coloured roses were put in blue-dyed water... and eventually the dye seeped into the petals.

 Rack of the artificial flowers and bears.

 A mugshot of me!

 "What? Can't a guy hold a bunch of flowers?"

 "That's it... buy, buy, buy!"

During the nights, my brother-in-law was game enough to stay back and perform Guard duties for the duration of the event. Thankfully he wanted to, otherwise I'd have to do it! >.<

Sorry, no day pictures... it was HECTIC! Too many people and not enough hands... besides, it also rained, so there was much scrambling around trying to keep everything dry.
