Just for a change we had a run out to another car boot sale on Sunday morning.
It was ten o'clock when we got/arrived there and I suspected most of the bargains would have been sold.
I also spotted an old "Black and White" pub sign for sale. It's in an old frame and I imagine it's 1950's ish?
I loved it and said to the lady I would have a walk and think about it.
I was starting to slightly panic and much to my relief it was still there then when I got back to the lady. I bought the picture. Perhaps I was a Jackdaw in another life? If I like it I buy it!
Did you get any carboot treasure at the weekend?
They will go next to my two Black and White dogs which I featured on here in August 2017:
Great find Dave. You did right to buy it.
ReplyDeleteI thought you would like them Rachel. Is there a category called Pub Art? Perhaps I have just invented one? Thanks.
ReplyDeleteWhen you know what you like just go for it. We are a long time dead, as my friend is fond of telling me.
ReplyDeleteExactly JayCee. Work hard, play hard and collect hard. I often say the same what your friend says. It's not a rehearsal.
ReplyDeleteI bought a sink at the car boot the other day and a post driver for fencing. Sink £5. Post rammer £10. Well pleased with myself.
ReplyDeleteNo garden tools though. I am looking for a hoe and a rake for gravel.
Hi Sol. I bought a stone rake last week for ten Euros. Carboot sales are great for garden tools.
DeleteThis is a fun post, I like your black and white little dogs and now they have a sign to display near them. Fun title for your post too. Buy what calls to you.
ReplyDeleteHi Terra. I am glad you like the dogs and my blog title,
DeleteI once heard you only regret those you don't buy. There is quite a bit of truth there.
ReplyDeleteSo true, thanks.
DeleteWhy are they all white ones?
ReplyDeleteGood question Tigger.
ReplyDeleteGreat sign. Glad it was still there when you made up your mind.
ReplyDeleteGlad you like it Linda. I won't dither next time I see something I like.
