    Wow, you're making me hungry. I wish we had markets like that. Where I live we have a market that is open Saturday mornings, but no seafood and it is a good 15 mile trip to the market.

      It's always the same Breige. We never do when something is on our own doorstep.

    I'm so jealous of those living in Cork with the English Market, hopefully plans to create one in Dublin progress quickly! Great photos, Colette.

      Thanks, Adrienne. You feel the same way we do! It is a great asset to any city, and I really hope Dublin gets one too :)
