  1. (continued from previous page)
    The day is usually an exceptionally busy one and ont hat day every shop sells a large amount of goods to the farmers, wo usually bring a large amount of groceries and foodstuffs etc home with them.
    Oftentimes buyers go to the farmer's house and but any livestock they want there. Butchers usually do this. This town would be in a bad way without its fairs as the town depends on the fairs for it's upkeep.
