Lovely day for market. It's not ony vegetables and fruit. We thread our way past a blue plastic crate half filled with snails. There are some grubby lettuce leaves on top which I first take for rubbish but decide must be snail food. Some time we'll try the fungoid shaped Jerusalem artichokes, but not this week.

After market place coffee we go back to have lunch with M&M. Salt herring, and nicely done, with strawberries and kiwis for dessert, on the balcony overlooking the sea. As lovely as winter gets. Shirtsleeve weather in the sun, sea breeze, a drink in hand and good friends.
