Do you actually shop at the market or just people-watch? <br /><br />I enjoy the markets around Bristol but I do find that I spend money like water what with a bit of cheese here, some baked goods there, some sausage, coffees, cake etc and suddenly my wallet is empty!Eleanorjanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15458995916551328770noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872918251244874644.post-91881965318136595942014-05-13T13:32:55.585-04:002014-05-13T13:32:55.585-04:00Your real people posts are always so charming.

I love the coral-ly shade of red and your post reminded me of the pair of ankle pants that I tucked away while I gathered courage to bring them out and wear them.

We see very little red with the exception of shoes or bags.

Or maybe the unfortunate pairing of red with conservative in America? Or no good reason at all? Anyway, beautiful photos.LPChttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18209861350905135093noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2872918251244874644.post-10692211468962163312014-05-13T10:46:44.670-04:002014-05-13T10:46:44.670-04:00How pretty and lively!
