I've not been to a car boot sale for years now. We have one at one of the multi-storey car parks in town on a Sunday but they only seem to sell bad quality tat.

That's why I never use proper names, I have job enough with the IDs. Someone wanted to be my friend on face book. I said ok but I've no idea who it is. She's friends of lots on here though and I've seen her avatar before but I don't know who it is!!
