Just wondering...do you know a lot of Peggy's? <br />What is Alexander Soup? And, jumping around a bit here, I'm really liking seeing your altered book in process, have never done that but have many books & mags. on how to do it. <br />Friday!Peggyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18071261854957363637noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4082600701720985027.post-90298486544685422492011-06-20T20:33:36.380+01:002011-06-20T20:33:36.380+01:00Helen your probably right lol Id be afraid Id miss...Helen your probably right lol Id be afraid Id miss out on something ! Though I also like to see the old and antique stuff too, it brings forgotten memories to the fore at times. Mind you I often only come home with the free range eggs!<br />It occurs to me that just maybe, the foreign folks I hear, are also swearing away at eachother, but I dont understand them of cousre ! But if thats the case then it still sounds so much better than us Brits in daily flow lolol<br />I guess living out in the country does have an occasional draw back then Sue........but trips to the city should always take in car boots as well then!<br />Deanna the nice things about this book is that it doesnt smell the age it is! Buying outddors, Ive learnt to smell books especially before I buy them................smokey, damp or fetid books dont lose their pong!liniecathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15643986273499722414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4082600701720985027.post-20256044431245942522011-06-19T23:12:16.975+01:002011-06-19T23:12:16.975+01:00Oh goodness....I feel exactly the same about us Br...Oh goodness....I feel exactly the same about us Brits. It saddens me terribly. Where did it come from? When did it start? Like you, we love to see the different nationalities here. I wonder what on earth they think of us....and I get embarrassed too. Big sigh!<br /><br />Boot sales....how we love them :~) We couldn't go yesterday morning, as our boy had gone to work with his car key, and my husband had left our car keys in the car....locked of course! We felt deprived. ha ha You picked up some great finds...you wouldn't ever stop going really would you?helenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04412509910451805109noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4082600701720985027.post-58281608920714991412011-06-19T22:00:54.287+01:002011-06-19T22:00:54.287+01:00When I lived in Melbourne I used to go every Sunda...When I lived in Melbourne I used to go every Sunday to a huge nearby market - for years, and found so many treasures. I miss it now being in the country, though there are much smaller ones around and fewer good things to find. Your booty is enviable.
