I attended the Hawick Reivers Festival today and although it was cold the sun was out and everyone was having a great time.The procession started at 10.45am lead by Hawick Mosstroopers.  This took us to a 16th century market and encampment where we took a step back in time with the help  re-enactment groups, crafts people, musicians and traders. I then found the Medieval Market – Continental Style where you could eat food from all over Europe and of course I tried everything from soup, roast beef, garlic prawns and in the end I had enough. For more information about this event go to Hawick Reivers Festival.

This event is well worth the visit.
