Carbooting.

For Six weeks in the Summer on the fields of Hough End Clough, the Manchester City Sanction a very large Car boot Sale. With up to about 400 Cars attending. Extremely Popular.As they say One Mans junk is another Mans Treasure? 

Carbooting.

One of the Essential Stalls at any Car boot Sale is the Mobile Cafe' Selling everything from Beef Burgers and Chips to Fried Egg Butties. Most people get up early and skip breakfast to get all the Bargains. So they are hungry and thirsty after buying. So the "Scran Waggon" probably makes more money than any one else on the Car Boot. Ha Ha.

Clothes feature big in Car Boot Sales. So they are very popular with the Ladies. As they go up and down in Sizes in their Lives. So they get rid of old Party Frocks and such. Men are different, we wear clothes till they drop off.  I have looked at my old holiday snaps, and guess what, the same Sport Shirts appeared in them all. 

( Tight Sod I Hear You Say ) LOL.

This man hasn't got a Car or a Paste Table just a Push Bike, but doesn't bother him. He lays out the Jewelry and odds and sods he has for sale on a white sheet in the bright sunshine.

The weather is perfect for Searching the Car Boot. So the crowds turn out in Thousands. So it's Bargains Bargains Bargains. LOL.

Carbooting.

Shoes are another big sale item on Car Boots. Mostly Ladies and Children Shoes. Children's Shoes only last about 6 months as they grow up fast and can be expensive in the shops. So a good pairs of them are a popular buy.

St Clements Church.

This is St Clements Church built in 1866 and the Tower in 1905/6. The Tower now requires renovation. It is just 8 miles from Manchester. So I am giving them some publicity to help get the funds. Hope it Helps.
