.... it's market day, hope we can find somewhere to park.
We're nice and early so it's not too crowded yet.

How about a spot of Christmas shopping while we're here?
Not sure how much bread there is at home so I'll grab a baguette to be on the safe side.
No wonder most people buy on line these days.
This is the only DMC outlet for miles around!
An apple a day keeps the hangover at bay.
