I can't quite understand what kind of a sale you are talking about. Would it be like what we call a Flea market here in the US??? We also call that part of a car a trunk. Sometimes convertibles have an area in the back called a boot. ...BTW, I love your videos, especially the ones with Birds in them. Well, have a great day.

At a carboot sale, cars arrive at daybreak in a field or other venue, with the back or boot filled with unwanted houeshold items, bric-a-brac etc. Most people bring their paper pasting tables to display their stuff on. Very little in our house gets thrown away, we take it to a carboot and try to sell it - it's a great atmosphere, and if you get a good one, thousands of people can look round your stall over a 2-3 hour period.

I've heard of trees with trunks, elephants and even roads, but never cars! How different our common language can be.

He is cold, he is heavy, he is smooth and he is yours frank for the bargain price of £2.00,even though he is an african gentleman. sounds like what our ancestral slave masters used to say.... Funny how humanity never saw the gentleness in the great african man. but you found it frank lol. just glad it not me. love your budgie stuff though keep it up.

It's amazing what some people collect. I have a friend who collects milk bottles with advertising printed on the side, and I have an interest in that being a milkman, but can't imagine may other people would be. He has them on a long narrow shelf all around his kitchen.
How fantastic it would look if I had such a shelf with all these soapstone figureheads along it!
