Is it open today or has the season not re-started? Checked the Car Boot Megathread but says 21st March ( as info copied from last year presumably) and the website gives no info. Have asked there but thought I'd ask here too as if it is and the heavens don't open up I might set off soon.

Thanks.

Don't set off.

You'll be a week early.

Haha.... thank you :)

Haha last time i went there, on way back from skeggy a few years ago, the car got broken into, easy to pop the lock on an old pug 106. A few saxos got done too. They took everything, from keys to a coat to a bar of choc.

Ironically, all i went for was a steering lock :hihi:

Nice! I am so bored.... need to get out!! Something that dunt involve food!!

hi yes thoresby market is open it opened last week

Ok so whos telling the truth!!! Is it really? :)

We were thinking of heading there ourselves. I'm 99% sure I read on their website a few weeks ago they were opening early March.

yes it is open my dads just gone there it opened on the 6th march this year a little bit earlier than previous times. just a pitty we don't have a bit of sunshine! would be a lovely day out!

Bloke selling dodgy meat from the back of a lorry in the middle of summer when the air is full of dust and god knows what …………… lovely day out though.

The only good thing about Thoresby market was knock-off CD`s and DVD`s and they were thrown off site long ago.

Liquid refills or aerosol ?

quicken- you are SO sad.

Didn't go- got halfway there, rained, thought sod that, went bowling instead.

thinking of going to thorseby market tomorrow and was just wondering if its any good or bad. Anybody been recently,just didn't want to go on a wasted journey if it was crap thanks:D

Its always been crap, thats part of the joy of it!!

It used to be a couple of hours walking round there,i can get round it twice in a hour now.Plus £2.50 to park car is a rip off.

Very true, it used to pass on a morning or an afternoon, now its an hour.

its crap spend 2 hours walking round looking at same ****e sorry but its true

went there over 5 years ago and haven't been back since, it's pretty crap especially when it's raining

tag, going to review this later as im interested also . last time i went but it was raining hard so i went to victoria shopping centre instead

Does anyone know how much it costs for a pitch at thoresby market?

sorry i don't but i went for the first time in a couple of years yesterday and couldn't believe how quick we got round it all , it's really a lot smaller than it used to be and not busy at asll , to say it was 12ish :(

Merged threads

Yes it is well smaller than it used to be! I think some of it seems to be the stall owners being a lot fussier than they used to be and if it looks like bad weather they dont turn up. Only prob with this is that if people go and there is hardly any stalls then they dont go again, Bit of a visious circle really which will only lead to it getting worse. Wouldn't be so bad if you didnt have to pay to go! I notice that hasn't reduced in price!
