Great music and entertainment, great photos Tash, not so great stalls.
A one world event with a world market.....World Market??? A few stalls selling food and hippy clothes, was the flower stall and furniture seller representative of diversity in Nottingham city? Plus the usual German sausage stall.
Where were all the community groups that represent ethnic diversity in this city?
Mind it was prob the cost of actually having a stall in OUR market square.
If you using tax payers money to fund this I want a refund!
