  spare a thought for the town team, up at the crack of dawn putting up stalls and when they return at approx 8 am the wind has relocated most of them. unsurprisingly only 2 traders stayed for today.

  We were there this morning and bumped into young Mr Matcham doing his fruit & veg shopping.
  
  Nice to see you, Vic.

  the market manager on the left and on the right matt who i had a brief chat with and he was most enthusiastic about how things have gone. built up a regular crowd of customers with new ones added each week.
  
  not surprisingly the stew and dumplings have proved very popular as temperatures drop.
