    Rahie - B, we went to rest bay last Sunday and the one before, quite confident it's on this Sunday too. As DS does a paper round we usually get there quite late - about 11am, and still lots to see/buy.

    Can anyone advise? We're looking to do a car boot this Sunday (selling). Considering Bridgend (underground), Rest Bay, or Gelligaer - anyone have any ideas as to which will get the best prices?
    Cheers,

    Thanks both. Boys are keen to do Gelligaer as it's forecast to be nice weather there and rain towards porthcawl/bridgend from about 10 am. I've never been there so will be following the direction in this thread if that's where we head.
    Fingers crossed we'll do ok - and at the least get there!
    thanks again,
