No fridges I know but how did we ever eat that much meat!
Gosh, yes, all those carcasses! Looking at old recipe books, it seems we did eat more meat then. In pre-fridge days I remember my mother examining joints of meat for flies' eggs. Unthinkable now.
I've just noticed the potted plants and vases of flowers on the pavement in front of the stalls. I guess that was seen as showing themselves at their best.
