There are no Car Boots in the Iron Age, so skipped forwards 500 years to the Roman period.
(Story of my life these days; though I am very happy in the Iron Age, shopping of any kind is a bit difficult).
And after two hours...Joy!
Errol car boot is massive, chaotic and highly reccomended.
I picked up a few odds and ends, and then contemplated the hatchets at one of the (several) tool stalls.
There was a heavy ugly thing and a Brades, a Elwell...and went back to the heavy ugly thing, possibly the worst in the bundle.
And bought it.
I now have a side axe...Work will love this.

The 1988 edition of The Ashley Book of Knots, by Clifford W Ashley, although I’ve not received it yet. Won it for the princely sum of £17.87 with a lucky bid in the last 5 seconds of bidding. A book I’ve had my eye on for a long time.

A breadknife for my travel cutlerykit.
Some small seedling pots and hormone rooting compound, have taken some cuttings from my small Rosemary plant in the hope that I can propagate some more stems.
These are fab. So sharpA breadknife for my travel cutlerykit.
Another small sheepskin rug, in need of a good wash! Hence only £3.50. It's come up nicely, but having a mare trying to dry it, as it keeps raining, just when it's almost dry!
This is going towards my plastic free camp kit. Combined with another identical(and much cleaner) one, I got a few months ago, it will make a good base for my bed.
