I found this great little, french style, market in Brighton yesterday. If the sun had been shining it would definitely have felt like being on the Continent!  I just love the shapes and colours of the gourds - I always feel something artistic coming on when I see them........talking of gourds - we had a really cool lit up pumpkin in the front garden last night , and although I don't really like all the halloween stuff, it was great fun giving hoardes of local children sweets - and seeing all their fancy dress costumes...I suppose it all keeps me young (hopefully!)
