Hello all, an update on the market which is launched next tuesday 6th.
As you already know, we have bought 12 stalls that people can hire out, these have now all gone; with existing traders we now have more than 20 confirmed bookings, so please do your best to come along and support the market next week.
To be blunt, we all know action is required, to be even blunter it will take action from all of us to make this work and hopefully see the High Street buzzing again.
YOUR TOWN NEEDS YOU!!!!!!

Another reminder about tomorrow's market Dovorians.
We have 24 stalls booked, starts at 9.00 in the Market Square.
Most of the stallholders are Dover people, lets all do our bit to support the local economy, don't forget the half price parking in Russell Street.

the weather is set fair until mid afternoon, no excuse for people not knowing about it banners all over the place.
stall holders will have to be a bit patient as it takes time for people to think "tuesday - oh yes market day", also the christmas present buying season will not take off properly for a week or two yet.
