Mobile mini markets

Something which they do here which is a great idea is the mobile grocer and butcher. One day a week, in Carlipa it happens to be on a Friday morning, a couple of vans roll into town madly tooting their horns to tell everyone they’re here and they set up a couple of stands of fruit and vegetables. The boucherie (butcher) has a van with the side that comes down and displays the fresh and smoked meat, sausages and deli items. We don’t get the Boulanger (baker) very often because we have a boulangerie in Carlipa (our only shop). Andrew and I do our big shop in Carcassonne or Castelnaudary every week but it’s great to have the mini market to get a few things if you’ve run out.
