Draw Result.

As promised, the Christmas draw took place at the close of business on Saturday 21st December.
 Market manager Mick and customer care assistant Sharon drew the winning tickets.
The first ticket was number 102.  This wins vouchers to the value of £25-00 to be spent on the stall.
The next five numbers were:  266, 259, 155, 177 and 201.  These each win vouchers to the value of £5-00 to be spent on the stall.  
Prizes can be claimed at the stall whenever it is open, by producing the ticket with the winning number on.

New Lines

We have added some interesting new lines to our range.
 Doves Farm do a range of traditional and organic flours to suit most purposes.  As well as wheat flours, there are rye, spelt, barleycorn, buckwheat and einkorn flours.  Please ask us if you want something we have not got, and we will do our best.  We also stock yeast, baking powder and bicarbonate of soda.
 Doves Farm also produce a range of gluten-free flours which we stock.  In the new year we hope to stock xanthan gum, an important additive when baking with gluten free flours.
A taste of Africa, that is promised by our range of spice grinders.  Each contains a representative blend of spices from a different region of Africa.  Perfect for the more adventurous cook.  All are fairly traded.

Building our new stall

Progress on the stall has been erratic, but satisfying.  Over the last 10 days or so, it has taken shape.  Some of the equipment is bought new, other has been brought down from the Castle Market.  Most of it on the bus, some of it was carried or barrowed down.
There has been a counter to build,
shelves to put together, (and modify)
and signs to be written.
Now we are as ready as we can be for the big move on Saturday and Sunday.  Looking forward to seeing you all on Monday and later.
