Bargains and skate parks

Everyone was up nice and early today!! Where have those Saturday morning lie in's disappeared too? Daddy stayed at home with the little people whilst Charlie and I headed off to a car boot sale in Shoreham. This is a new adventure for me as I have sold at car boots but never gone as a buyer. As I am now a housewife and not working the Parker's have to budget and where as before when working I would just head for the shops now I have to be more creative with our pennies.

So what was I on the look out for, well I drove there dreaming that there would be a handsome man with his big BMW 4x4 selling off all his ex girlfriends designer handbags, her size 7 designer shoes and all her designer clothes that happen to be all in my size because she had cheated on him and because he was so angry he gave me the lot for a tenner!! OK dream over, I was there looking for a scooter for Sam for the school run as he has out grown his Thomas one.

After five minutes of being there I declared I love car boot sales (as long as its a good one), piles and piles of books at 50p each and boxes of dvd's and of course there is also some real old tat. Anyway I came away with a cool spiderman figure at 50p, some wooden train track and trains (you can never have enough track) at £2 and a four boys tops (Next and GAP) at £2.50 - some great bargains. Charlie scored a computer moniter and a beautiful violin at £10 for Sam's birthday (Sam wants to play the violin like his Grandad).

When we got back Daddy, Daisy and Charlie headed off to the skate park in Crawley as Daisy had her first skate lesson! They had a great time but Daisy wasnt keen and spent most of the time on her scooter. Daddy had taken my car keys as well with him so we were home bound until they returned.

We went over to pick up Nanny Maureen before heading over to see Aunty Debby is unfortunately poorly at the moment with her eye - Get Well Soon.
