Village Country Market

31 comments


Today was the village monthly Country Market. We have a lovely selection of stalls, and of course this month lots of garden produce as many of us have a surplus of beans and tomatoes etc. We had a lovely selection today and fortunately a good attendance. There was a real buzz about the place today, with friends getting together for a cup of tea or coffee and cake, and a lovely natter. I took a few photos to show you.

oh dear, i wouldnt mind helping but this is a town and people dont chat and contribute the same as in the country i find.

20 Aug, 2011

 

Thats true. Move to the country.

20 Aug, 2011

 

if only. i am definitely country not town at heart!!

Great! We also had our town flower show today and I went, but I forgot my camera....yours looks a lot posher! ;))

20 Aug, 2011

 

Oh really, I think ours was probably more informal and friendly than a town one would be, but thats just my imagination running riot .

Yes, Carnoustie is officially a town but you really wouldn't call it a town....we have a very village atmosphere and probably less shops than a lot of villages have too! Ours is very informal, friendly and 'rustic'! :))

20 Aug, 2011

 

Oh thats nice then, hope you enjoyed it.

20 Aug, 2011

 

yes, thank you, but I have to say your preserves table puts ours to shame, and all the lovely bunting too! I think I would have enjoyed yours even more! :))

20 Aug, 2011

 

Nice of you to say that. Thanks

20 Aug, 2011

 

It's good to see that villages still uphold traditions like this, Cinders ... I do like those wood clocks ... and so many jars of preserves & pickles! ... :o)))

20 Aug, 2011

 

how lovely,Cinders..I really like visiting places like this..glad you had a good day..will your cake last the weekend ?Lol.

20 Aug, 2011

 

Yes Shirley I agree, I like those clocks too. They weren't expensive either, I think they were about £15. Might have to get one next time, what with (Xmas) not far off, and the jams and pickles are really excellent. Such a variety a job to choose.
Sandra the cake will last because its in the freezer. I am going to be out tomorrow, so it will come out next weekend when I have visitors.

Looks great Cinders, hope it was well attended. A nice variety on show, crafts and produce.

20 Aug, 2011

20 Aug, 2011

 

Will have to try and get over to one of these, looks like there is lots there to pick up.

22 Aug, 2011
