So I went to the street yard sale that Thornbury posted about.

It was massive , cool and interesting.

Two types of sellers, those who want to clear stuff out of their house, those who are trying to make money.

Prices were generally high, often higher than Op shops.

Lots of kids stuff, lots of over priced old clothes. So many books and by the look of it no one was buying.

Few dvds, even fewer CDs and vinyls.

So what did I get. From an old guy who was clearing out a shed, a nutmeg grater, some antique glass bottle stoppers.

From another stall I got a pair of light weight cargo pants.

had a nice chat with a woman who fixes up old chairs and does sewing. ๐Ÿ™‚

It was an ok day.
