The villagers took a vote about the wind after it carried off the laundry three weeks in a row, and the vote said to go and ask the Wind Farmer. He listened to all of it and said the wind had been spending a lot of time in the next village lately and he didn't think it was about the laundry. The villagers bought a seal from the grandmother anyway, which she tied to the washing line with a bit of red thread, and since then the laundry stays put.

The wind whispers that the merchants will arrive on the 26th of October bringing assorted wares and household GIFcraft. The older people heard it first and told everyone to write it on the calendar, though nobody could agree what household GIFcraft is. The regulars say you don't get to pick, the wares come wrapped in newspaper and you only find out what's inside when you get home. Somebody has already been cleaning the empty stalls by the square and hanging lanterns along the path.
