One of the best things about Fran is his crazy ideas. This week he got us all up by half six to go to a car-boot-sale, (ie a flea market) by half seven in temperatures just at freezing. These photos document this early February experience. The boys (Fran, Leo, JT) decided to go on a tea-themed binge which included: the most outrageous teapot, thrown in with a potpouri pot, milk jug, tea cozy, coaster set, and some sweet 90s music and 3-D wolf poster. Gill stole the best find with her 1950s boardgames and planetmobile (that still works, complete with Pluto!!). I was over the moon with 10 hard-back books from pre-1950s for £2.70, plus a couple of albums (Bruce Springsteen and Blondie). Of course, we completed the trip home with a cup of tea in the new pot. Here's to bargain loving. X's and o's for your weekend, hoping it was just as worthwhile in your investments.

Looking for my teapot. Last seen in England. Outrageously shaped. Let the Dormouse know if you've come across it.

You look frigid but I am jealous of your skill.
