An even higher percentage of tat today. All I managed to get was an entire solar system and a collection of prints from Plastikové Modely magazine. It took me a while to find any link for that, be careful if you Google 'Czech models'.

Update. Last week's Como drill set had a faulty controller, but I fixed it last night whilst watching the Fleetwood Mac documentary on iPlayer. I now have a fully functional driller/grinder/polisher - sorry no NHS.

I got some christmas lights, but nowt else. Still we ended up with 2x100 outdoor ones and 3x40 indoor ones for £13, 2 sets of the indoor ones are LEDs so not bad.

Now all I need is a house to actually decorate :D

Some good, some bad, got 2 books on linux for 50p, good.
But got ripped of with a ink cartridge at 50p, looked in the box seemed ok got it home and opened, and the silver bag was open, and the empty used cart was wrapped in cling film, ah well we live and learn.

Walked round twice, bought nothing, it's getting smaller as the cold and wet weather creep in.
I haven't been to Cock sparrow lane for a while, will have to try it again soon.

edit spelling, why do I never see them till I've posted?:rolleyes:

Indeed it does, in fact there have been instances when the ladies have been confused....

Very poor today - the end is nigh. Nothing for me, but I didn't have too long to spare looking round. Although, I suspect that I would have found nothing anyway, even if I had had a lot longer to peruse the scene.

Still on. Nothing for me, though. There were various sewing machines and a selection of supplementary Trivial Pursuit question packs.

I would say there was about 30/35 stalls - nothing exciting, though.

Is the boot sale sometimes a place of excitement?.......:xmas:

It can be. The crow-bar fight a few years ago certainly caught peoples' attention at the time, and there was a broken leg this year, including a visit from the air-ambulance...

The high-point for me, though, was when I spotted the entire Round the Horne on CD for a few quid. Would that be exciting enough for you?..
