Fair amount of sellers and PLENTY of buyers at Twin Oaks, sadly got rained off though by a heavy shower. Everyone got there cars stuck, loads had to be towed off.
Did they refund the parking? :hihi:

Must admit I've been very disappointed by the Tesco's ones. They've been like Blonk Street but without the class. :hihi: Didn't buy much there this week and didn't even see the entertainment by the sound of it.

We went to Twin Oaks this week and managed to avoid the downpour, we were on our way home when it started. I have to say there were a lot of comments from buyers waiting to get into the sale regarding 'dealers' buying up all the decent stuff and then re-selling on at a profit. Its not that i disagree with this but i think that they should just let everyone on together and not make the public wait. That would give everyone an equal chance to bag a bargain!! It states quite clearly NO PUBLIC TILL 1PM but the let everyone on at 12.30 so not really worth advertising it as STRICTLY NO ENTRY BEFORE 1PM.

The sellers still get pestered to death while trying to set up their stalls(i have sold there too) by the traders so i dont see why they dont just let everyone on as and when they arrive, like Marsh Lane ..and they dont charge either.

Sorry, I think you have got some of your facts a little wrong. The car boot sale is NOT held every month - they are only allowed 4 per year. The dates are 5th April, 7th June, 2nd August and 4th October. :thumbsup:
