Market day...inside of course!

In Garstang we have this indoor market hall as well as the weekly outdoor one on a Thursday.
This is more a food market selling meat, cheese, confectionary, fruit & Veg & a few other bits pieces!

There was a cold wind this afternoon so quite a few shoppers inside.
A big shutter comes down to close it, like a garage door!

Three good things:
1. A new strap for my watch. I don’t actually wear it very often these days but like it when traveling so I can get the correct time at home & where I’m going! Goodness I sound like a real jet setter there! 🤭
2. The Six Nations Rugby ....
3. A long Skype with Jack......so clear & quick with our new fibre broadband.
Why would you want to go anywhere else to buy food when you have a market like this! Better than a supermarket!

So good to have an indoor market hall especially on cold and blustery days .It looks such a nice clean market We have quite a large indoor market in Wellington - opened on four days a week with a variety of stalls . some of the stalls have changed so much over the years ,but some of the faithful have been there for years ! . You say you don't wear your watch that often - I feel undressed and lost without mine and have it on always - a habit from my teaching days I assume , when every minute counted !!

@beryl I wear my Fitbit Beryl. Harry & I got one each for Christmas a couple of years ago. I like to see how many steps I do a day & it has the time too of course. It does take the place of my proper watch.

@maggiemae Yes but I never shop in there for some reason...just never gi5 into the habit. I love the Sunday morning farmers markets in NZ but just tend to shop in the main shops in Garstang somehow. We have lots of independent shops in the town...butchers, bakers etc & of course the wonderful Booths.
