I'm a bit of a livestock market geek.
Sad, I know, but I used to write about livestock prices - so I've visited scores in my time. I like the atmosphere at them - the sense of banter and camaraderie between the farmers and the buyers.
Darlington market has a particularly place in my affections (now I am sounding really sad) because I spent a year living in the town. So I was pleased to see it's won a court battle after locals objected to the noise...
