    I hope it's a really good sale, @Dakota_Rose ! Have you packed sun screen, snacks, flask, box of change, hats, anoraks etc?! I've never done one as a seller, but most of them seem to keep coming back to do it again!

    Yes to all of the above! I’ve rarely done one as a buyer but weirdly enjoy selling at them. The early start is not appealing though. We’ve set the alarm extra early tomorrow as last year, we arrived at 7.15am and were the second to last car admitted. Those after us were turned away!

    Well done on all the prep and the full car! The early start alone is enough to put me off, but you will have the afternoon to compensate for that.
