I HAD great fun when I went along to the Foodie Show at Dorchester football stadium.

I helped my Dorset Echo friends set up their stand then explored the rest of the show.

There was lots of delicious food for sale on the 200 plus stalls, as well as entertainment and cookery demonstrations from top chefs including Jean-Christophe Novelli and a crafters’ marquee where I could pick up tips from experts.
