Now I will probably look like that bad person for being honest but, REALLY, farmers market causing the Dartmouth Road shop problems?

I've been to the market a few times and think it's a great idea esp if that's what the locals want. I find it more welcoming than some of the shops on Dartmouth Road and if I want sweets, esp retro sweets, I'll go and get some sweets not think, right I've been to the market I don't need to go anywhere esp if I need other stuff!

I like the idea of going for a walk up to Hornimans with my young daughter. Maybe buying something at the market if I see something that I like and then taking her for a walk round the gardens, to see the animals and to play with the outdoor musical instruments, so the whole 2 birds with 1 stone springs to mind.

Before anyone asks if I 'work' for the market, nope, been living in this area for most of my life
