Re: GRIZZ’s ‘79 - 2WD BLAZER Challenge over in London, England. “~It’s not a Project

Big boot fair today, only one but good stuff.

Bought a tall wooden cat for my garden for £2.00



Sally clocked a Mexican blanket over a cars bonnet, I know the lady sells weird, random stuff but always stiff, hardly negotiable prices.
So took a pic, texted @CraigRK to counter offer whatever she wanted via WhatsApp, and showed her the offer.....

She wanted £5.00 which he was happy with, but he texted back £3.00 or £4.00.

She took £4.00 when I nagged, I know she was not overly impressed, but Craig got a cheap blanket for Ouma LiL http://forum.retro-rides.org/thread/...osedan-company



Between us Sally and I bought quite a few bits.

One of two of my favourite things was this riding crop, clearly old.

Note the woodwork, it’s a spiral, cut from one piece. @50p it was a bit cheap, and clearly has age.

Same seller sold me a beautiful military swagger stick for £1.00 covered in very fine leather I wish I knew someone who would love it as much as me.



Not at all everything we got, but some of it.

New IOM TT Races T-Shirt £1.00
Two Jack Daniels T-shirts new 50p each.
Mexican blanket £4.00
3 rolls of wide masking tape 50p for them all.
Riding Crop 50p
Swagger stick £1.00
Racing duck 20p
London scarf £1.00
Strawberry Glass bowls and holder 50p
4 Guineas coasters 50p
Dog toy dragon 50p




And as a “special treat” because I am heading to the USA next week, took Sally to Maccy D’s for breakfast.

Both of us on CCTV screen.




Then back home.

Next job, unpack and clean company car.
Remove personal stuff from Blazer. Potential buyer Tuesday.
Wash and hoover Prozac the Berlingo, MOT due 20 October so nice to have it clean for then.


Best part of the weekend......?


Public Holiday Monday.
