25 Years of Thames Market Celebrations on 24 Oct 2020, 8am to 1pm
What a day it'll be - 25 years of Thames Market (well, not on the real day when Peter and Dianne McKinnon had the first Thames Market early September postponed because of the that vicious virus but close enough). The first time in the market's history the road will be closed for us between Pahau and Cochrane Streets - courtesy of Thames Coromandel District Council (thank you, thank you, thank you!). We'll have a huge range of stalls (almost 100, many of them on the street), street performers (Team Waihi and Signor Buffo), buskers, new stalls, well known regular stalls (some with specials), good weather (non negotiable) and slideshows! Thames Cinema's Dave Ritchie has kindly offered the entrance to his premises for the location of a large TV screen (courtesy Netherton School - thank you to Martin Rodley for organising it) to run a slideshow with photos from 25 years of the market. Lotus Realm, ever so supportive of T/M, will continue the same slideshow on a TV in their small shop window between the doors for a little while. And to top it off - we'll be going until 1pm. Come and enjoy the fun (we promise not to use any brackets in our next post).
Poll: Does the building consent process need to change?
We definitely need homes that are fit to live in but there are often frustrations when it comes to getting consent to modify your own home.
