If you haven’t visited the ‘International Twin Towns Market’ which starts tomorrow, get ready for a treat as it is quite different to the usual Christmas market. And all I have to say to the Brits is ‘mince pies’!
Our twin town partners from around the world will be present with their local specialities, crafts, Christmas gifts and information about their particular towns. As the OT explains, ‘it’s an attractive, colourful market, in a welcoming atmosphere where cultural dialogue is the order of the day’.
The German stall is usually brimming with gingerbread goodies but also pretty decorations; the Portugese and Italian stalls have wines, local produce and often pretty pottery, and yes, the ladies from Bath UK bring Christmas cakes and their terrific mince pies (usually gone on the first day!).
It’s all happening on the Allées Provençales, at Place François Villon, times on the poster above. A lovely multicultural start to Christmas!

I can confirm that the mince pies are on their way and we have a new supplier, Bakers of Bath, who have been a family company since 1935. The family name is Baker, so they were born to bake! Their mince pies are delicious, get to the stall as soon as you can! Mary and Chris from Bath will be there to greet you.
Thanks for the update … hope it goes really well for you all.
