Very disappointing as I believe the well-organised large boot sales can be quite rewarding. Quite a few treasures from them have found their way onto The Antiques Roadshow but I don't have the patience to trudge round in the hope of finding one myself. <br />Your lunch makes my mouth water - eating homegrown produce makes all the hard work involved worthwhile.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-5581388674494900202015-08-09T01:12:05.598-07:002015-08-09T01:12:05.598-07:00Some car boots are better than others.

Sometimes you can find 'hobby' artists. I once got a beautiful hand painted metal jug - like the ones you see on traditional canal boats. You have to treat them like an adventure and treasure hunt.Midmarsh Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10980417659811194899noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-17680293760935429892015-08-09T00:49:26.195-07:002015-08-09T00:49:26.195-07:00Only ever been once, got a headache from all the t...Only ever been once, got a headache from all the tat, the point is do we need 'stuff'?thelmahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00934860502828923562noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-88115499067652542082015-08-09T00:47:04.251-07:002015-08-09T00:47:04.251-07:00I have also never been to a car boot sale and neve...I have also never been to a car boot sale and never want to.
