#139: Hunt up a bargain at a junk market
This was suprisingly enjoyable and useful.
CJ and W and I went a-wandering at the Jamison markets last Sunday, and it was good (and not just because I enjoy being surrounded by nice-looking boys). CJ and I bought Christmas presents for three people, and also bought a Carole Wilkinson book for $5 (sweet!) and a lump of beeswax to make the drawers of various furniture items slide better.
We saw a side-saddle saddle.
And a really excellent antique stall with a seafaring flavour (and some fantastically racist kitch).
Then we wandered into Aldi and witnessed first-hand the eerie similarity between Santa and the Easter Bunny.
Play along at home score: 8 out of 10 – recommended for the bookshops alone (they had really good stuff – Ben Elton and James Patterson and Pamela Freeman and much more – cheaper than second-hand bookshops, and most of it in perfect condition)
