How to fill an empty weekend

My plans for the weekend had fallen through and I was facing a long empty weekend on my own. I knew that I had things to do in the flat but I had really been looking forward to the company.  I suddenly remembered I’d seen an article in the local paper about a local craft fair and I decided that I’d go along as it would fill a couple of hours.
