CAMBRIDGE MARKET DAY

 Here we go again. The second market for this month.

An ungodly early start to the day... and it's quite nippy out there.  But, it's supposed to get up to 20 degrees C later on, so all good.

ABOVE:  Our 'spot' .... it's a really good spot, as we have a bit more room out the side where we can put an extra rack of runners and the wooden screen.

This is the first market here since way, way back in January of 2020, before friggin Covid put a halt to all markets for a long time.

It has always been a relatively good market, so here's hoping it still is.

I will post again once we are all set up and it's not too busy, though I want it to be BUSY!

...8.30 and we are all set up. Got here at 6.30 thank goodness. We actually got a park!

ABOVE: We are ready....

2.20 pm. Packing up. We had a relatively good day. The weather was perfect... apart from a very blustery wind which was a right shit.
I'll be happy to get home out of it.

So we are both buggered after that.  It's exhausting putting the stall up  and then packing it all up again.
We also didn't sleep well last night, which is rather typical for a night before market scenario. 
I tried to have a late afternoon nap, didn't happen.

So instead I cooked our dinner, which was pork chops, mashed potatoes, veges and gravy.

I now feel like I could go to bed proper, but it's only 7.26 pm!  

Because we are going up to Auckland tomorrow, we will head off to bed fairly early tonight though.

Catch ya tomorrow.
