    Evening everyone,

    Late posting as we’ve been out to Brighton today with DSis, BIL and DD who is at uni there. The Christmas market was disappointing - 99% food and drink rather than the crafts I was hoping for ☹️ 

    So sorry to hear of the damage and lack of electricity/water folks are experiencing due to the storm. Hope things improve soon and everyone remains safe and warm.

    Hello everyone.  :)
    I had a similar disappointment with the Christmas market yesterday. It was a giant pub and takeaway  with no craft or gift stalls, barely a mention of Christmas, and groups of overexcited teenagers shoving each other. 
    It was crowded, so obviously it suits a lot of people, but I wonder where to find the more traditional type?
