Four boats which would have been part of the floating market at the FAB Festival have decided to visit the town on Saturday, July 4 and Sunday, July 5 from 11am to 4pm each day.

Jules said: "We should have been here a few weeks ago at the FAB Festival. We really miss all the interaction with the public, it is so much part of what we do. We are really looking forward to getting back on the towpath, chatting and engaging with people.
"We have been to India to get all our stuff. We are very passionate about engaging with our suppliers. Everything is Fairtrade. We will have lots of things you won't see anywhere else and a few one offs.

"Hopefully it will make it a really nice pleasant experience for everyone to come down and chat to us."
