GS45Graham Posted July 18, 2005 Author Share Posted July 18, 2005 Thanks.Oddly, the best list (restricted to la Manche) appears to be on the Dorset Twining Association site (http://www.twinning.org.uk/market_days_la_manche.htm). Even more oddly, searching in English produces much more than searching in French. Google is a bit better than Wanadoo.If anyone else is interested, www.camembert-country.com/market01.htm is good, but doesn't include the seasonal markets.

Baz Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 For anyone interested in Markets, there is a book by Janice Gallagher called "Markets of France" listing over 10,000 Markets from the smallest commune to the largest Cities. I have found the book very accurate and a very useful addition to my reference library.The book is available in the UK and in English, but usually will needs to be ordered:PublisherLoisirs PublicationsPublication Date01/08/2001BindingPaperbackISBN1903861004List Price £13.99Baz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
