More Carboot Sale Treasure.

 We were not happy bunnies after our poor plant sales on Saturday. But we still decided to go car booting.  

One needs Womble retail therapy.

Here's some of the things we purchased.  I haven't photographed everything though:


Two Victorian brass candle sticks. I paid 7 Euros fifty for them.  I have eight of them now me thinks?  Did you need them Dave?  No but could I leave them and walk away?  No!

The book is full of fabulous sacred sites in 🇮🇪 Ireland.  I have visited some of them especially in Sligo.  It's also the personal spiritual journey of the author.

The photos are brilliant.  It's more of a browse flick through kind of book for somebody like me with little reading 📚 patience at the moment.  

I would rather read blogs or browse and surf the Internet.  I am sure I will read it proper in the long dark nights from mid August to April. 


A travel bag for personal documents like my Irish passport and money and note books...  I paid five Euros for it.  My old one is looking shabby and the zip sticks.

I bought the Phil Lynott book for 2 Euros.  I already have one book about him.  Thin Lizzy are one of my top two favourite Heavy Rock bands along with Kansas and I remember seeing Phil and the lads when I was just 17.  Lizzy were brilliant and I am always playing their records.

Lastly I bought a mountain bike for me to occasionally go for a cycle on the repurposed greenways that I often write about on here.  I paid 35 Euros for it.

That's the same amount I got for my plants the day before!  Hey my plants paid for my bike.

Serependipity or what?🤔
