    Its a fiver for cars and there didnt seem to be a limit on tables, we had two and many had more as well as rails.

    But then that was Feb and it wasnt so busy, maybe they are stricter in the summer?


    Thanks for this SUki - we still haven't made it up there yet lol - but might do now :beer:

    Hi All

    I have set up a page in Facebook for Car Boots in NI. Hoping to collate details of car boots in one place - although I know this forum does a good job of it. Do you think its a good idea? I am going to contact radio to publicise it, and schools etc. The page is called Car Boot Ni (yes a small i as Facebook is very particular in how you can enter 'names' :think: ).

    Or email info to [EMAIL="CBNI2010@gmail.com"]CBNI2010@gmail.com[/EMAIL] and I will add the details.

    Here's hoping it works as trailing the net for info drives me potty (well I may already be a little potty to begin with...) :p

    Hi, I wanted to go to the Hillview boot sale on Crumlin road tomorrow, but read the previous post saying that it may be closing down. Does anyone know if it's still going?

    If anyone is interested, there is a car boot sale in Bangor on Saturday 5th June 8.30am-1pm. It's at Carnalea Methodist Church on Rathmore Road.


    Chem_j I'll post this onto my Facebook page - its gathering members each day - I'm so impressed - I suppose that's what happens when you email several hundred churches etc overnight :j

    Me again, don't forget to add yourself as a friend to the Facebook page 'Car Boot Ni' to find out about Car Boot Sales and Fundraising events in NI. Check out the 'Events' tab where all events are listed in date order so they don't get lost in page postings. Or email me details of confirmed events/car boots at [EMAIL="cbni2010@gmail.com"]cbni2010@gmail.com[/EMAIL]

    Cheers
