Re: Fairtrade Fortnight

Sorry rindy your way off, the rest of you aren't, there is a general downturn in market stalls turnover all over the uk, and this is caused not by on specific company but a change in shopping trends. Although what you've said rindy probably didn't help even though in theory it should have. People don't go to markets to buy good priced stuff anymore cos they can buy it from a supermarket. This is why you need good quality stalls that offer what people want but also something different that burnleys market doesn't.

It used to be the best, and busiest local market around, alas no more.

Strange but Rawtenstall claim to have had the best market around, and also wasn't it the biggest?.
