Bumper Bootsale Bounty

This is just gonna be a quicky, I have caught a tummy bug from darling Iris and am feeling distinctly washed out. Blee.

However, I just had to drop in to show you the HUGE score I had yesterday. Shoes! Books! A teapot! Toys! Records! A sewing Box! Kaleidoscope! A lampshade! Tablecloth! SO much more!





I am buying with such gusto because of a vintage/flea market that I am doing at the end of May (more of that soon) which I am SO excited about.

Which means that some of these lovely things might not reach the shop, but if anyone sees anything they fancy then just drop me a note in the comments and I'll see what I can do.

Speaking of comments, thank you to everyone who gave me their input with regard to comment etiquette.

Anyway, feast your eyes!

Ha! It's like my past is catching up with you! I had that tape recorder, the sewing box, the Shirley Hughes book and those wooden toys! That children's printing book looks rather fascinating too..... Hope you feel better tomorrow Mrs. :)

p.s in my head i call you 'nathe' but since you are a natalie it may be 'nat'. put me out of my misery please, i ought to know your name by now!

p.p.s if it is 'nat' it's too late, you will always be 'nathe' to me!

super haul! i have missed your finds over the dreary winter months...

I have to confess to also being confused as to how to pronounce Nath....I think i probably call you NatalieandIris in my head.

I LOVE it when you come home after a car boot, arms aching from all the finds you're carrying. That must've have been a good day.
