Treasure Hunting

Time Off For Good Behaviour

   It;s a cold sunday morning and I'm off to treasure hunt at the local car boot sale, a few hours away from work and the barn hoping I can find something of interest, maybe that odd treasure worth hundreds of pounds of maybe just some pieces that may help with my ceramic work, things I can use for surface textures etc.
   I find it amazing what people sell at these fairs and often see items that make me think back to my childhood even toys and games that I enjoyed as a child over 40 years ago. It's a big car boot and is busy with customers from the surrounding area, there is a good mixture of sellers with some retail sellers with their christmas stock of toys and decorations, but I like the tables which are full of what we would call " old tat", where there is a mixture of old and new to look through.
   Every time I set off I tell Yvonne I'll be back with some treasure that we can sell and ease out worries haha but yet to do so, maybe this week is the week and I'll be on here later telling you of my find all excited as we will be rich, yer right !
   The good thing is I get a couple of hours alone to think plus Yvonne gets a rest from me moaning about everything so it does both of us good.
  I'll let you know this evening how I get on, wish me luck.
