I made my first visit to the Christmas Market on Saturday, and I really enjoyed it and the crowds added to the wonderful atmosphere and I had a wonderful day there

I know 3 people that went and now their all poorly

Needs organising much Better than it was. Security 4 stewards stood around like Flower pot men/women. Trying to rule that there's a one way system around parts of the market when it wasn't. Only the Castle was a one way system. Stewards forcing you to go back around in areas

Tat-fest!!! Completely lost it's way.
