This Little Piggy....

...went to market.....

This little piggy went with some friends.....
Let me clarify ....my friends are not really piggies!

But we did go to market yesterday.......
Although we had threatening dark clouds all day not a drop of rain  or wind in sight that made for very pleasant day out with these girls.
We set up and not really being experts at this game we realised very quickly that we were surrounded by others who had done this many times before....
The no gazebo to erect probably gave it away!

I enjoyed the people watching and chatting the day away....a few sales were made but overall a quiet day out ... but a great exercise in stepping out and testing the waters.
We were a little concerned about our position under the speakers as they were in constant use all day.......

but a plentiful stash of chocolate in many forms was enough to take away any environmental concerns we had.

I found this chap in the car park looking none to pleased about the invasion of so many people riding mountain bikes through the mud.
( the market was hooking itself onto a large national event)


It was such a lovely spot to spend the day...a little country town , a little distance from home......


after all the fun of the day what else was there to do but stop and nosy around in some antique shops that were  just begging to be stopped at.......


no treasures were taken home other than the ones that we had so lovingly made......
at least I now have a lovely stash of gifts ready to give away!

  3. Hehe, loved the title of this post...it's the nursery rhyme that came to mind thinking about our day out.
    It was such a lovely relaxing day and one I would definitely do again, so nice to have our first market under our belts :)
