Today was one of those days when the sun sparkled in the dew drops,
and the outlines of the trees began to be softened by the opening buds.
In the garden more flowers are ready to burst into life.
The hedgerows are sprinkled with tiny flowers ,
and the bracken fronds begin to unfurl.
Young men dance in country lanes,
and everyone flocks to the car boot sale.
Today's sale was back to it's usual size, probably 300 sellers with all sorts of goods. Lots of children's clothes and toys, a few antiques and a wide range of household goods. Most unusual item seen - a child sized penny farthing bike, most tempting item - the boxed set of Return of The King with a model of Minas Tirith (I have already got this so I resisted), yukkiest item - a pair of blow up ladies breasts. My purchases included a band new mat to replace the grubby mat in front of the rayburn, shorts for me and Romas, more wind chimes, Irish whistle and instruction book and various other bits and pieces, everything less than £1.I spotted this kit car in the car park, very unsual.
It took 20 minutes to get out of the car park field which wasn't fun in the heat.
We celebrated the lovely weather by eating our supper outside by the scree garden, very civilsed. Oh well back to work tomorrow.
