I often am in awe of pretty covers and always check for little notes and dates inside. You got some wonderful finds here. <br /><br />I love reading about your little observations! It’s funny the things you can witness at a boot sale. The lady with the parrot sounds pretty awesome.<br />Though once I got myself into quite an embarrassing situation, I actually got lost in the middle of a huge field! I hadn’t got my mobile and had no clue where my bf had wandered off to. Sheer panic and about 30mintues of running around nearly in tears (yes I was that scared), I finally managed to pluck up the courage to ask a stallholder if I could use there mobile to phone my bf! So we were finally re-united. But my never again will I get lost at a car boot xxAlicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04276217187016872792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4024913711365989296.post-36241054573967479062011-03-22T02:50:40.856-07:002011-03-22T02:50:40.856-07:00That's so funny - aren't people strange?!?...That's so funny - aren't people strange?!?!?
