A few months ago, I saw something similar at Spitalfields Market in London. It was during the October mini heat wave on an early Friday afternoon. The BBC was filming there for a programme by Nick Robinson, which was subsequently shown on t'telly. Some of you may have seen it.

Anyway, the place was packed to the rafters with the old dears not only dancing bur using a lot of grey spending power. It seems to me that Accy Market would be ideal and that it is something that Bury, Skipton and other like and competitive markets are not doing.

have you been and had a go on their wheel of fortune tealeaf?
