Market day by happypat

Market day

I walked into the village this morning, no good driving as parking is bad on a Wednesday while the market takes up the square.
I walked round taking a few photos for my 365 bank.
The fish van on the left comes every week & you can see the same one in Garstang tomorrow.
The cake & bread stall comes from Liverpool, a very obliging young man, he’s quite new but seems to do well.

Three good things:
1. I was on my way home with my rucksack on my back & met Harry going the other way. He said to help me with my shopping…we turned round & went for soup at the cafe.
2. I had bought ice cream & forgotten but two hours later when we unpacked it was only a bit soft!
3. I learned the name of one of our regular dog visitors to our bowl of water at the gate.
A very nice scene

Nice that you still have a few market stalls on a regular basis. When we first moved to Lincoln there was an outdoor and an indoor market, the outside one has definitely gone & I have a feeling the other one too.

Nothing just like having a market. We have a thriving indoor market, opened on 4days a week, I haven't been able to go down for ages as it means Gary having to come with me to lift my buggy out of the boot etc!
So good of Harry to come to meet you to share the load!!

@beryl He has never ever done that before Beryl….I usually have to lift my own shopping bags out if the car!! 🤣🤣 I think he was bored at home!!! Nice to see him though!

@carole_sandford Some weeks there aren’t many stalls at all as it’s outside but today a good number.

A lovely busy scene, and a beautiful sky. Pat you may want to revisit your post on Joan's misty scene - you made a typo which I'm sure is a word you didn't mean to type!

@busylady Oh gracious me I’m always putting an I instead of an o or E. It’s amazing the difference to a word…shit or dies for eg. Thank you for letting me know! I usually check but was rushing! Bless you!

Very cool. Interesting architecture in the background.

@vernabeth That’s the White Bull pub!
November 16th, 2022  
That is so cool that you can count on that every week. We have stores but I love the feel of this.

Lovely. I do enjoy a market.

We have a few markets here but none sell fresh food like yours do.

@onewing @tinley23 @cdonohoue The older I’ve got the more I like a market….

Another lovely village scene. I'd be a customer of that fish van, for sure.

I do love a proper village square market. I only ever get to see them these days when I visit Yorkshire
