Doing our bit for charity

We got an email earier this week to say that they were having a charity car boot sale at the gym attached to the hotel up the road and were looking for cars. Always wanting to do our bit for charity we took a slot.

It was very sad that she sent over 1,000 emails but there were only six of us selling. This is a first for us as we have never done a car boot sale before but the vultures pounced on us and started rooting through the boxes as we were getting them out of the car. It was quite scary. We did eventually get sorted out with a few pounds in our pockets already.

After donating our £5 to Asthma UK we still made £70 profit from the items we sold. This included three boxes of duck eggs which went within seconds of us putting them out. They were definately the hit of the day.
