Hugh Car Boots??????

Hugh has discovered zee car boot, we’ve been telling him for years, but sometimes it’s best to let Hugh to find out some things for himself ……..
IMG_4189Now discovered, he is now wondering whether it might be a good place to “off load” some of his old stage costumes, although naturally he thought Christies ought to be given the first option to auction them if they thought there was the interest.
IMG_4188Darrell made a couple of considered purchases, but was really much more interested in seeing what caught Hugh’s eye………

……. and then going through it all again when they got home, which proved to be so much fun ……. like the tea cosies he went mad for, so quaint and English he trilled, and interesting head wear,  although not a trend likely to catch on, as a wind whistling through your spout hole is never conducive to a warm head, noted Darrell.
IMG_4284It goes without saying that there were a few beaded tranklements, as Hugh is the first to admit, he is forever distracted by shiny things!
IMG_4285Hugh also found a couple of real hand knitted patchwork blankets for his beloved dogs, so countrified and gentile he sighed, and a world away from what they have in Notting Hill ………
pet bedHugh also bought a “few darling little plants” for the garden that he said would ask his “man that does” to identify when he got in on Wednesday morning as Hugh doesn’t really do plant names.
IMG_4288 …… and finally some plums …….
IMG_4286…… because …… Hugh is exceedingly partial to the odd plum or two!!!  What is he like?

Treasure often pops up in car boot (or garage sales or flea market sales in the US)......you never know what is lurking there and waiting to be discovered; a treasure hunt for sure......Love, Dianne
