Hi all,

A newbie here from Milton Keynes, so just thought I would say hi!

Have been lurking here for a while picking up tips etc and then stumbled across this thread.

I live in Stony Stratford with my fiance and get married later this year. I work in CMK and spend lots of time round the shops at lunchtime (not often spending though!) so have probably inadvertantly wandered past you.

Will go through the rest of the thread for any usful tips and then see if I can add any of my own.

Hi all
I saw an ad for a giant car boot sale at MK eventing centre (some bloody horsey place who spread mud all over the road and don't give a munkeys). There are signs out on the A508 (from A5 stoney stratford roundabout heading towards Northampton).
anyway it's at Malt Mill Farm, Castlethorpe Road, Hanslope, Milton Keynes, MK19 7HQ
Saturday 22 April - that's this Saturday
10am to 2pm
I think they have all the stalls they need as there is no phone number to contact if you want a stall there...

Do you know the people at the eventing centre? You managed to describe them pretty well :rotfl: :rotfl:

The eventing centre is generally quite well signposted for horsey events so I imagine it would be for a car boot.
