Car Booting adventure

Today we sold stuff at the "Mammoth Car Boot Sale" in Polegate.  What an experience that was!
We had been preparing all week for it by making piles around the house of items that we were ready to part with. Fortunately my friend Cat kindly agreed to come along and help, and our friends Paula and Ava from down the road came along to sell stuff also. They were in the car behind us so the kids were able to hang out together a little bit.  It was a really hot day with clear skies and lots of people hunting for bargains.

We didn't do a good job of keeping a close eye on exactly how much money we made, but it was somewhere around £60. Any transaction that R or T facilitated meant that they got to keep the proceedings, so R came away with £23 and T came away with £16, and they were really stoked about it.

We decided to call it a day around 12:30pm so we loaded the car back up with the tables and unsold items. Everyone was really hot and uncomfortable by then.

We stopped at a charity shop (thrift store) on our drive back and left the unsold items for them to deal with so that we could go home with a nearly empty car. Rhodri was really stoked about that!
