Off at a tangent but my local car boot place at Cramlington is no more.
Where are you visiting please?  Visits will be few and far between as I don't get much time off for good behavior.

hi thancs for the coments right as to wher the boot sale is its at segfeld rase corse on sunday mornings and the in side one has started up at peterlee

[Fergus OMore]

Thanks for the information about Sedgefield and Peterlee. A bit of a hike from the wilds of Gosforth on a Sunday Morning with the Metro Centre problems in between.

My wife got a tyre fault showing up in the MiniCooper just past the Metro turnings and I had to boot it down in the other car to clear the fault to get her back on the road South again. Had to follow her to Chester le Street turn off  and loop back past the rich Geordies and Makkems trying to throw their money away- if they could get parked.

I'm not quite a happy bunny. The traffic on a Sunday gets worse.
My thanks

Norm

That's a nice find. I've never had much luck with boot sales myself, but maybe I just don't know how to look. I mostly just go to the one in Blaydon which doesn't seem that great. The other one I sometimes go to is at Hexham and it's pretty weird. Real posh crowd and everyones convinced their rusted junk is all highly valuable antiques. I'm blaming daytime TV.

I'd visit others if it wasn't so hard getting around by bus on a Sunday.

Well Fergus, I just read or should I say tried to read your post. Had some difficulty with it. I then tried to run it through Google Translate..... they have now banned me from the site. Thanks.

 

Just kidding, I actually was able to understand almost all of it. Not too bad for a lad from a small town in Alabama. Thanks for the entertainment. Will wait for John's translation to get the little bit I was oonable ta ken.

Real 'Geordie' is or was grammatically correct. Generally, it is just the sound that is difficult to master.

Somewhere is  still the delightful Geordie Bible where 'Moses was found in the bullrushes, at least that was her story' and The Children of Isreal crossing the Red Sea with Joshua the one with the wellies( rubber boots). Scott Dobson and George House stuff. Just as delightful as some of the Deep South stories from your bit of the Pond.

A bit of light hearted fun in an increasingly sad World.

My kindest regards to the people of America at this time.
