After breakfast outside again we packed up and are heading for Abergavenny for the food festival.
We parked in the Park and Walk by the river and spent the afternoon wandering around the free street markets and farmers market which fill the whole of Abergavenny. It wasn't worth a wrist band for the demos and talks so we just wandered around the free street markets. Very warm and sunny day and the town was packed. We had a cheap coffee and cake at the Methodist church and had a long chat with an 87 year old tea lady.
The farmers market was really interesting and I spent a while listening to a very enthusiastic lady author talking about her new book on bees, Dancing with Bees, they sound absolutely fascinating.
We walked back to the car parking field and it took 40min to get out.
We are staying the night at Pandy CMC site 6 miles away where we enjoyed the BBQ beef ribs from the festival with some salad from nearby Waitrose. Heavy rain is expected overnight and a wet drive home.
There was some heavy rain in the night and it was raining on and off all morning. We set off for home just before midday and stopped for a break at Stratford on Avon, by which time the rain had given way to a few sunny intervals. We found a handy parking place and Stratford also had a small food festival and craft market in the streets. We picked up a few things to eat, had a coffee and arrived home after 6 o'clock.
