Treacle Time

 

















No doubt like us you have spent January in a state of frugal denial (ahem!) with a spartan diet, to make up for the excesses of Christmas. Well Sunday is the day to throw your mung beans in the air and head to the Market Place and Chestergate for a bumper Food and Drink Market. Prepare to gorge yourself on local honey, rustic breads, crafted pies, exquisite cup cakes, local ales, mouthwatering sausages and even vegan and gluten free delicicies.There will be live music  from Phil Maddox to serenade you as you fill your basket. Make sure its a big one.
