Brecon Beacons Food Fest

A day out in Brecon today, for the Food Fest.
We've had a Food Fest in Hay a couple of times, and they were really quite fun, with entertainment as well as amazingly wonderful food, so I was expecting something similar in Brecon.
It was a lot bigger. Stalls filled the Market Hall, and at the far end, when I was there, a chef was demonstrating on stage. The Secretary of State for Wales, Paul Murphy was there, and Kirsty Williams and Roger Williams, our AM and MP, were around somewhere as well, with Derek Brockway the BBC Wales weather man, and the Aberhonddu Male Voice Choir. There was meat, cheese, bread of all sorts, chocolate and fudge, wine and beer and cider, and cakes. Outside on the Struet and up to the end of St Mary's Church on the Bulwark, the stalls continued - poor souls; the weather was awful, but at least they had some shelter. By the church were the arts and crafts, pottery, leather bags, knitted hats and so on.
Then, down the other way was the Green Fair. Here you could find out all about solar panels, thermal fleece for insulation, lime wash and natural paints, wood burning stoves and biodiversity.
It was all very interesting, and it's a pity the weather wasn't better for them.
