Good morning Alec, glad you had a nice day. You should have introduced yourself and helped me with the stalls

last time i went past they still had the "let by" sign outside but no indication when it will be occupied.

I would not have expected the market to be there tomorrow regardless of the predicted wind and rain.

I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

Being pro-active by going out and about to neighbouring towns and farmers-markets, is the only way to really increase the stall-holder numbers, to create a street-market that actually means something and one that Dover can be proud of too.
Real stall-holders will also have their own stalls.

I often hear people say we should have a farmer's market but i don't can't imagine one being successful with Farthingloe farm so close by and the highly successful one at Capel.

I'm not particularly saying we should have a farmers-market Howard, but some of the stall-holders there may be happy to have another outlet to sell their goods; but we'll never know.

I am surprised that a stall holder turned up at all as usually markets die off after Christmas for a month or two. I think there is now a market manager/co-ordinator running things, he has his work cut out.
