    Only kidding, but we could do something like that in a couple of weeks if you fancied. The one at Middlebrook is only 10 minutes down the M61 from us and apparently it's quite large. And not muddy.
    Sounds like a plan

    Never ask a man where he's going with a spade at a boot sale. Lol

    Oh my god! There's nothing wrong with the bidet is there?

    “Nothing discloses real character like the use of power. It is easy for the weak to be gentle. Most people can bear adversity. But if you wish to know what a man really is, give him power. This is the supreme test. It is the glory of Lincoln that, having almost absolute power, he never abused it, except on the side of mercy".

    “You see these dictators on their pedestals, surrounded by the bayonets of their soldiers and the truncheons of their police ... yet in their hearts there is unspoken fear. They are afraid of words and thoughts: words spoken abroad, thoughts stirring at home -- all the more powerful because forbidden -- terrify them. A little mouse of thought appears in the room, and even the mightiest potentates are thrown into panic.”

    "You don't have free will. You have the appearance of free will.”

    “There's a war out there, old friend. A world war. And it's not about who's got the most bullets. It's about who controls the information. What we see and hear, how we work, what we think... it's all about the information!”

    The rain knocked out three out of four sales on Sunday, but I still managed one, plus three more on Monday, not a single piece of gear to be seen and not a single record worth buying, three counties a lot of petrol, £4 in entry fees and all I got was five CDs for 50p each which now don't seem quite as much of a bargain.

    The main one I go to most of the good stuff has been bought by 6.30am, you can still get good stuff turning up after that, but there will also be more competition later, I've already got new batteries in my torch for next week or the week after.
