The definition of jam is 'A thick sweet food that is made by cooking fruit with a large amount of sugar, and that is usually spread on bread'. It’s that time of year when the Country Markets stall is beautifully stocked with jams and pickles. If you have a favourite you can order in advance to ensure the supply. Lemon curd - raspberry jam - red onion chutney to name a few.
Apparently there is going to be a pandemic baby boom!! If you know someone who is expecting that bundle of joy soon, the market is the ideal place to buy that perfect baby gift. The ladies at the Country Markets stall have been busy knitting and have a great choice of blue, pink and lemon baby booties and bonnets. A knitter yourself? Don't forget to support our wool suppliers in the market.

Well done to Pam from the Vintage Wardrobe stall in our indoor market. In return for a donation Pam provided tea and cake in aid of Kidney Research, a charity close to her heart. After two days she had raised in excess of £200!! Fantastic effort and thank you to all of our lovely customers who donated.

What a week of sport!! Wimbledon and Football. Traders in the indoor market have everything crossed for Wednesday evening when England play Denmark in the semi-finals of Euro 2020. There will be an interesting colour scheme in the stands at Wembley as both sides fly red and white flags. Have a good evening everyone. Stay safe, be kind and have fun!
Stallholder Anita raised in excess of £1000 for Macmillan Cancer Support on Saturday 26th June watched by fellow traders and customers. Not only did she have all of her hair shaved off and raise much needed funds but her hair was plaited beforehand so that her lovely locks could be sent to the Little Princesses Trust www.littleprincesses.org.uk. Well done Anita!!
A good question. What IS your preference - we may well ask? Traders in the market have been experiencing 'alternative' shopping habits just lately. Currently 'Footy Fodder' has been flying out of the doors (pies, pasties etc) - easy to eat without leaving that settee! Soon to come is Wimbledon - maybe it will be the decadence of scones, cream and strawberries!
Anita from the market will be having her head shaved on 26th June at 1.30pm to raise funds for Macmillan Cancer Support. Market customers and traders have already raised in excess of £650. 'Some stallholders have been putting their 10p charge for a carrier bag in the box' said Anita 'it's surprising how this mounts up – I’m delighted’
