Market stalls by happypat

Market stalls

Another market shot taken from the road looking inwards to the shops.
On the left a very smart ladies dress shop. On the right is what many years ago used to be the Midland Bank but for the last twenty or so years it’s been the village community centre & was opened by Princess Anne
The centre deserves a post on its own though.

Three good things:
1. An afternoon at the cinema watching the excellent Bill Nighy in Living. I’m sure it was an excellent film, in fact it was beautifully acted but very slow going! A better title might have been Dying….a warm place with a full house watching. Sandwiches on the back row & a very good place to spend a very wet dark afternoon. It was full, everyone had the same idea!
2. An all clear letter from my recent procedure…I am discharged!
3. I popped into the kitchen shop after the film & bought a turkey pop up timer! They work brilliantly & take all the stress out of cooking the turkey to perfection!
Nicely captured street scene

Looks like the chill is starting to hit by all the big coats. Great to have markets handy.
Have to keep an eye out for that movie both FG and I like Bill Nighy..

@julzmaioro I do too & he was very good as you would expect, just thought it would be a bit livelier! Will be glad if your thoughts when you get to see it!

Love your market shots. This one seems very open, no stall or shelter from the elements. Thanks for the flag up on the film, I'll bear it in mind! Good news on the procedure

I would love to browse the shops in your little village. How odd to be selling toilet rolls on a market stall.

I haven't heard of the Bill Nighy film. Doesn't sound as though you were too impressed with it.

@onewing Well disappointed I think more….was beautifully acted & filmed but very slow.

@busylady Yes I was relieved….no shelter at all so if it’s a very wet day they do r tend to turn up.

@Dawn @beryl Thanks A market is always interesting, we should encourage such things I think.

Love the busyness of this scene. It would make a great jigsaw puzzle!

Odd to sell toilet rolls on a stall! Did he get them cheap one wonders. Behind that door of the Centre, all sorts of things happen!

Excellent film review ha ha!

Nice street scene, and like Magiemae, I noticed the toilet rolls! I love Bill Nighy, but the film you saw doesn't inspire me somehow. Sounds like a nice afternoon in the cinema though. :-)

I love the outdoor market stalls. Nice capture.

@jamibann Very good reviews but disappointing! Still enjoyed it though.

@maggiemae I never thought it odd about the toilet rolls, if it was raining it wouldn’t be so good!!

@allie912 you’re right Allison!
