The event was due to start on Saturday, June 8 but had to be called off at short notice due to Storm Miguel battering the region with wind and rain. But on Sunday, June 9 the sun was shining and hungry punters headed to the town en masse to sample the delights and delicacies from a range of delicious stalls.
