We have usually managed to arrange for the guys at EatFeast to visit Shefford in coincidence with the week of the Festival – unfortunately, that was not possible this year but it did mean that we had yummy street food to look forward to as a delayed event.

Along with quite a few others we walked into town to sample what was on offer and had a very enjoyable evening as the weather held up for us, just “chilling” in the town. Our little town centre is getting busier these days, with street food, the Friday market and the Community Market (expanding the High Street into Pamoli Square) – it will soon be used for the Charter Fair and the Christmas Lights. As we saw recently on film at the Community Hall history presentation, the town centre used to be used for Pram Races and a market that stretched across the pavements the full length of the High Street on both sides of the street. Interestingly, it looked like they didn’t even close the road to traffic!
