Dear Friends

Well folks “EXPERIENCE THE MAGIC OF NEPAL” is just 11 days away. I hope you will be able to join us, bringing your family and friends with you.

To give a Nepalese touch I did a live interview with www.visionsansar.com, if you fancy hearing the Nepalese language please visit http://www.youtube.com/user/TheVisionsansar?feature=mhum#p/a/u/0/NrhVisFhh3A. Also, the Fair is featured by “COVER” magazine, for those who haven’t bought a copy yet, please find a page attached.

Christmas is just two months away, on SATURDAY 30 OCTOBER we have 7 Nepalese Fair Trade Producers (FTG Nepal) coming all the way from Nepal as well as 50 Fair Traders selling Fair Trade products from Asia, South America, Africa and the UK with wide varieties of top quality luxurious and affordable products all perfect as Christmas gifts – hand made rugs, handmade wrapping papers, jewellery, leather bags, fashion accessories, Christmas decoration, clothes, Christmas cards, etc.

Perhaps, many of you have been waiting anxiously to see the four winning finalist rug designs? The rugs are on the way and I hope you are as eager I am to see the real rugs. I hope you will hold your patience to see the rugs live at the Fair. Also, we will have them on the website from Thursday 28 October to Sunday 31 October. Please encourage and support our young pupils by voting your favourite design. Remember the design that gets most vote will be awarded to the pupil who designed it. Our huge congratulations to winning four finalists and we are grateful to Bow Boys School and Royal Dockland Community School for taking part.

Finally our grateful thanks to Binod Chipalu and friends for the fantastic work they are doing for cultural programme. Remember the cultural programme is only on Saturday 30 October from 11am to 4pm. You have probably never heard or seen traditional Kathmandu festival dances of Newari community. To give you the taste, Bhairabnath Guthi will be presenting traditional Kathmandu festival dances - Lakhe Nach (Devil dance), Bhairab Nach (goddess Bhairab dance), Khya Nach (Devil dance), Manjushree Nach (goddess Manjushree dance) and Dhaya Nach - and “Sangeet Sutra” will be presenting Nepalese folk music.

Thank you very much for your support and we look forward to seeing you all at the Fair!

Best regards

Comolongmo family
