    Default Long lazy weekend?!?!?!?

    Okay, it's official - Drinky and I have given up the last vestiges of common decency and will spend tomorrow joining the ranks of those Sunday morning nutters getting up at 6am in the pouring rain to stand around for four hours selling all our worldly goods.................

    THE CAR BOOT SALE!!!!!
    (God help us all, we'll be getting a caravan next!!! )

    We have finally got round to clearing out the shed and have opened the billion or so boxes which remained unopened but followed us from house to house over the last 8 years, and have decided that it is time someone else housed all our unwanted cr@p.....!!!!!!!!

    Hoping to make a few pennies - fortunately this boot sale is indoors - I am far to posh to stand in the middle of a field in the rain - not good for my image!!!!

    Will give you all the lowdown when we get back tomorrow - there will be a box of jaffa cakes and a cup of tea to the person who guesses closest to our grand total

    That's what the missus got with her sister a couple of years ago, after trying to persuade me it was definately worth it!

    Well Lou, my mrs started doing the odd one for a laugh a few years ago and has done a few until we got rid of all the cr@p She always comes home with about £100 or more but i'm not quite sure it's all from seling what she should

    I was a bit ashamed to be honest until someone pointed out that it is the people buying your cr@p that should be ashamed of themselves. Made me feel a whole lot better

    EDIT: INDOORS!!!!!! Get out in the cold wet rain with a mug of tea and a soggy bacon butty!

    Ok im willing to bet £80 odd, minus your pitch fee.

    My sister does the boot sales in her Fraud Galaxy, watch out for the earlybird punters trying to open your boot as you drive in!! i'm sure one look at Drinky and they'll think twice

    Yeah, Tim Wannalot says to the Drinkies, well what have you bought to go into the auction?

    The Drinkies reply, we got a pair of rear light clusters for a 1969 Victor and a door for a Chevette.

    Tim says. ohh ohh well lets hope there are plenty of car enthusiasts at the auction, whats your third item?

    The Drinkies reply, it's a carraige clock Tim, oh thats more like it says Tim, yeah says Lou, it's really neat it has a griffin logo on the face

    Well says Tim, would you like to swap any of your purchases for our experts choice?

    Chris says, dam! where'd he find that set of 20's with 6mm left on the tyres?
