Such A Perfect Day

A beautiful morning for a car boot sale.

This was the scene at 8am this morning, a packed field and stalls piled high with cheap tat.

I stay well clear of the meat auction but some people just come car booting for a tray of cheap lamb chops and a box of chicken drumsticks.

I prefer to stick to a vegetarian diet and come home with a bagful of non-edible bargains.

Here's today's booty:

Clockwise from top left: 1930s era Art Deco Czechoslovakian-made seagull , Butterick dressmaking pattern , Handmade Saloon girl/Can-Can costume , 1960s BORG faux fur coat , A creepy child for my infamous Wall of Misery , USA-made leather cowboy boots , Crochet shawl , 1960s Polish enamelware Bain Marie, 1960s Lord Nelson Pottery mustard pot to add to my Gaytime collection, St Michael Bri-Nylon nightie

1970s velour maxi (courtesy of the fabulous Sarah Misfit, vintage suede jerkin (£1, car boot sale), Tooled leather bag (Courtesy of Queen Helga)

Not a bad little haul for just over £10.

I'm off to the pub for a school-night beer and no doubt a cheeky curry afterwards.
Have fun whatever you get up to.
