A day out at Builth Antiques Fair


"Say Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. . . ."


Miriam had difficulty in getting the right size knickers in the sales . . . and even more difficulty trying them on for size!



"Oh I do like to be beside the seaside . . ."


He was no longer a Knight in Shining Armour . . .




. . . and his horse wasn't up to much either!


You've all heard of pop-up shops - this is the pop-up man. . .


Some things just have style . . .


More photos to come later - but I must away to my jam-making.

  5. Pat - you never know WHAT is going to turn up and somethings things just seem to do the rounds between different dealers!

    parsnip - yes, LOTS of taxidermy always (fashionable at the moment it seems), but they are pieces which have been dead an awful long time.

    Em - I think he was a little Triang horse - from the 1950s anyway. He's had a paint job since by the look of things. Good to have you back.

    Lynda - glad you enjoyed them. I am still half way through making the jam - days have been SO busy recently. You can't beat the homemade jams.
