Country Market

I have been a bit shy about taking photos whilst at the car boot sale. The thing is, well, no one else does it so I look really out of place and it brings unwanted attention. BUT I have vowed to do it more often for the sake of JunkShopJen and for those that read this. It's no good me describing the rows and rows of "junk" and the type of people that wander down them... I think its much better to see it with your own eyes. So here you are:

Unfortunately there was a terrible fire earlier this year which saw most of the shop buildings burnt down. Luckily most of the animals and fish were saved and the support of the local community, proceeds from the boot, and probably an insurance payout will see Country Market up and running again in the Autumn.

This photo makes me laugh - I didn't notice the bloke walking past with his canvas ladybird shopper but he obviously noticed me!

A familiar sight: battered furniture and picture frames waiting for a new lease of life...

I bought a lovely old gilt style frame for 10p from this stall and I intend to spruce it up with a lick of paint and a new print. I'll make sure I post its transformation on here soon!

I promise to do this more often but with more interesting subjects.... perhaps I'll pluck the courage to photograph things as I buy them!
