    Two weeks ago we went a walk to the local car boot sale (had never been before), turned out it finished at 12noon and since we had walked quite a distance and we'd missed it, decided to take a look around the local car garages. Yep, you guessed it, went to a car boot sale and came home with a whole car!!!
