    I know about Farmers market LB. We have something similar and we call it Greens market. It's usually once a week with fresh veggies and all kind of home products.

    We have something what we call doorstep selling. Small farmers, like me, who doesn't earn above 9000 โ‚ค yearly from selling products, can put small stand in front of the house and sell veggies and fruits. Huge bonus is that small farmers doesn't pay tax (VAT) on home produce.

    I know from much experience that these markets here are very, very popular. Far nicer than buying veggies in the supermarkets. Things are just starting to get very slowly back to normal. I really like the sound of your Greens market and the doorstep selling too.

    Interested in the comments about whooping cough. I had adult whooping cough in my late 20's (which was a rather frightening experience). For several years after that I had an irritating little cough - but it did eventually disappear.

    About 15 years ago I had a very severe cough which was bad for months. Many tests later - no diagnosis. Doctor thought it was probably damaged or irritated airways which were not healing because I was coughing. Eventually they tried to pin it onto allergies.

    I am more inclined to think it's some form of permanent damage or scarring.ย 

    It's good to know I'm not alone. Always have boiled sweets or similar in my bag in case of a coughing fit in a public place and always have to go prepared for a 'quiet' event like a concert or talk or a funeral.

    To be honest, it's just a real PITA...

    Lovely harvest Ante - you do so very well with your veg๐Ÿ™‚

  • Goodnight have a restful one. ย LB I like farmers markets. ย Ante being able to sell your produce on your doorstep is very handy. ย LB and Topbird I hope youโ€™re feeling better than you have been. ย My slow cooker is on its wayโ€ฆ
  • @Ladybird4 I read about Robert Webb too, such a shame. Apparently he had a heart operation a couple of years ago and his consultant has advised him to step back from the show. I enjoyed watching him dance these last few weeks.ย 
    @Ante30 that doesn't look like a small harvest to me either. Amazing.

    Good night everyone sleep well and sweet dreams everyoneย

    I see William Shatner boldly went where he had never in real life been before. What a geezer!
