Bathe, brush your teeth, use deodorant. We become very up close and personal with our guests, and they would like us to smell like 21st century people rather than true Victorians. But please, leave off the perfume and after shave as many people are sensitive to artificial scents and may become allergic.

Before the run of the season starts, try to finish all of those nagging chores like getting an oil change, mending your costume, shopping for Christmas presents. Anything that can be done before November that will keep you from having to do it in November and December will make your life a little happier and easier.

Ask questions. Don't be afraid to ask for clarification or help. We're a team. Drink lots of water. No, more water than that. Eat regularly. You're burning a lot of calories. We highly recommend Mr. Brown's morning mush as the best breakfast at fair. Bowl of mush (oatmeal with fruit cooked in), with or without a sausage is the perfect fuel for Fezziwig’s. The Meat Pie Shop (near the V&A) is also another good value for hot food midday. Take your breaks. Find a bench somewhere in fair and sit. Walk the fair in character. Go to the big green room out back and check your iPhone. Take some time off. |

If your feet are killing you, draw a washtub ankle deep of hot water. Pour in one packet of Johnson's Foot Soap. Why does it work? I don't know. But it does. It takes the ache right out of your feet.

We hate to have to say it, but we must: please keep your personal drama at home. If it does come with you to fair, please leave it back stage. Our guests came to see the magic of the holiday season, not your temper tantrum. If you need to vent, ask one of the management team to take a few minutes to listen. Please make it clear you're venting, or else you might find them trying to change things to help. |
