Horniman Museum Christmas Market

I met a friend, Janette, for lunch in Catford; her daughter lives there, although it is rather a tatty place, there are one or two nice cafes.

After lunch, we caught a bus to the Horniman Museum, which is quite near, and had a Christmas Fair and Market.

We'd both been to the actual museum before, so didn't both looking around again, but went up the hill to the market.   They were selling a lot of artisan foods; I tried a little piece of the red cup cakes, but didn't buy anything.    The trouble with a lot of these artisan markets is that they are terribly expensive - everything costs far more than it does in the shops.   But they did have some delicious looking foods.

In addition to the market, which is a regular feature, there was also a Christmas Fair in two venues.   I didn't see anything I wanted, but they did have some quite nice things if you wanted something slightly different as a Christmas present
