Here's a preview of the text for the writing challenge, when you're ready click the start button above:

My favourite market is in the town centre. I go there every Saturday morning. Last Saturday, I went with my grandmother. We bought fresh vegetables and fruit. The stalls were full of colour. I love the smell of fresh bread. My grandmother always haggles with sellers. She got a good price for the tomatoes. Then we had a coffee together. The market was very busy that day. I'm going to go back next week. I really like this market.

Getting that for you now...
