Re: Lincoln Christmas Market - 5th December 2008
Well I have to say that despite the damp, it was a great trip. Now, it's beginning to feel alot like Christmas (sing along if you like ) and I think Carole had a little too much of the Christmas spirit. Dave, keep her away from that hot mulled wine before she does what she threatened and starts dancing on the tables!
The event was very well organised, with a one way route planned around the hundreds of stalls, winding through the grounds of Lincoln Castle and along the streets with specialist shops and cafes opening until late. The cathedral stood beautifully lit overlooking us and festive tunes could be heard all around. Shame it wasn't live carol singers but there was other live entertainment going on. The catering was also excellent with loads of different options to choose from... and we did! Pork & Stuffing baguette... Hmmm...
All in all, well worth the drive and I didn't even mind getting drenched on the way back to the car. Hopefully, Dave D and Dave W will post links to their pics soon (I left my camera in the boot of the car... d'oh!).

As Rich said it was an excellent event and the fact that we were there in the dark helped enhance the Xmas lighting and the atmosphere.
We bought two Xmas presents we hadn't seen in any other shops so it was worth the trip if just for that.

Rich I tried to upload using the 17" screen options but they are still coming out too small on photobucket

Lovely pics Dave, especially of the Cathedral lit up!
Not sure about this size thing. If you've got the correct settings on PhotoBucket, it must be somewhere beforehand. How do you download pics from your camera to your mac?

It's not the quality or whether you can see them or not, it's just a strange problem that Dave D & I are trying to get to the bottom of. He's taking excellent huge pics, but they are coming out virtually thumbnail size...
Anyhow, back to subject... Here's a pic of us all (minus the photographer, Dave W)!
Left to Right: Kate, Rich, Moira, Carole, complete stranger, Dave D, Graham, Jan
