Barnaby likes nothing better than wandering around a Car
Boot Sale on a sunny morning and today was a doozy. Hundreds of stalls.
Thousands of bargains and lots of happy shoppers. He was surprised to see for
sale an antique penny-farthing bicycle, and, on a different stall, a horse
drawn plough. Neither of which he'd ever encountered at a Boot Sale previously.
Naturally enough, most of the other items were of a much more prosaic nature,
comprising children's toys, household ornaments, furniture and unwanted gadgets and
gizmos of all descriptions. Many of which prompt the question, why on earth did
anyone ever buy that in the first place? That begs the follow up question, what
ever persuaded the person who designed and manufactured it to think anyone
would ever want one?
Nevertheless, the majority of the customers went home
clutching their carrier bags full of bargains, well happy with their morning's
work.
Barnaby was happy with his own bargain, too. A double CD of
the Rolling Stones for the grand price of £1.
You can bag your own bargain, of course, by visiting
www.barnaby-wilde.co.uk and downloading one of Barnaby's e-books. The best news
of all is that most of them won't even cost £1 and some, believe it or not, are
absolutely FREE!
