This morning I went to Wimborne Market, which is, funnily enough, in Wimborne. It's basically an everything market: clothes, fresh produce, meat, cheeses, craft items, bric-a-brac.
Before I continue, just like to say sorry that my blog posts are not in chronological order, this event actually happened before the previous blog post but I'd forgotten that I hadn't blogged about the market.
So we were only supposed to go for a little while so that I had enough time to pack for Hailsham. Aunty Kok Lee said it shouldn't be too big anyway.
Much to my surprise, it was a fairly big market for a little town. At first I just followed Bo Poh and Aunty Kok Lee around, but then was given permission to just wander.
There was a little bead stall, so I bought some beads. Beads are different everywhere you go, so if I see some on my travels, or even at a little market in a country town during summer, I like to buy some to add to the collection. So yes, I bought £4 worth of beads, not a lot. They weren't cheap, but they weren't expensive either, and as I said, I like to buy some everywhere I go.
Then Aunty Kok Lee points out some fur coats and got me to try them on. I AM looking to buy a warm coat for winter, but the thought of a fur coat hadn't even crossed my mind, because I have never worn one before. It looked kinda funny so I put it back.
We were going to wander some more, but I realized the time (we'd forgotten to keep track) and it was about time to head home.
Will go back there another Sunday to finish looking at the stalls.
