A visit to a new market

There was a well known market a few miles away from where we live, but around two years ago it closed as they were making changes, knocking down, rebuilding etc …. It opened up again a few months ago , but today was the first chance we had to go. It’s a big market with a whole range of stalls. The Mister wanted some gloves for work. Just as we thought we were not going to find any……we did find some. He was able to try them on. Fitted…well, …like a glove ! He bought a couple of pairs which will last until he finishes work. He can get some more ready for when he goes back to work at a later date. Isn’t it great when you can find something that you need ?

There's nothing more exciting than getting the chance to walk around a market checking out all the wares. It's even better when you can find that perfect thing you are looking for. Glad the Mister found the gloves he wanted!

It has been several years since he last bought any of these gloves so I think he was lucky to find them.

I love it when I find what I’m looking for; no more, and no less. It’s a good day when I come home with exactly my aim!

Yes, especially if the price is reasonable.

They had hone up slightly in price since he last bought any, but still a great price.

Same happened here. The market closed two years ago, but after 9 months they refurbished and now it's open again. Very convenient for me, because it's only 4 minutes walk from my place.

We had to use the car for this one, but it’s not far away.

Trying them on and they fit like a glove after you almost gave up is clutch.... thats the best kind of market trip imo.
