We were up at 5am this morning getting ready for the car boot sale at York Racecourse. The weather didn't look very promising, the sky was grey and there was a touch of drizzle, but it took more than that to stop hardened car boot buyers like us off.
Elvira picked us up at 6.30am and off we went. Tony sat in the back seat and clicked away with his camera, he was quite happy, it made a change for him not to be driving.
As we approached York the drizzle had turned to a shower, we grumbled a bit like you do, the usual things, " blooming weather" "sod's law" "just knew it would bloody rain" However as we arrived at the racecourse the rain stopped and it didn't rain again all the time we were there. We spent maybe 2 1/2 to 3 hours walking round I bought a couple of books, Tony bought a laptop bag for 20p so he was happy and a watch that he played with most of the way home. Elvira must have been glad when we got there I think.

I decided to change the bedding, stripping the bed was easy couple of minutes done! Remaking the bed, 2 hours yes thats right 2 hours. Then I had to sit down for an hour just to breathe properly, to let my hands go back to the normal size and for my face to return to normal (whatever that is).

Lynsey was supposed to be calling in today but didn't have time, she has gone to Christopher's. They are going out along with Hannah and some friends to celebrate Christopher and Hannah's birthdays. All I can say is look out Barnsley.

This is Christopher and Hannah taken at a Toby carvery were we had lunch with them recently.













This is Lynsey after running in the race for life last year.
