Car Boot on the Campus

The start of the famous Campus car boots started its season on Sunday the 11th April to a dull but dry day, however this did not prevent the early birds from setting up well before time nor did it stop the bargain hunters turning out to catch the pick of the offerings from some 35 car boots and stalls in attendance.
Not a bad turn out for the start of the season which will no doubt build up as the monthly events progress.
By 9.30 the sun had broken through adding a pleasant feel to the event which obviously relayed itself to the public judging by the increase in the number of people turning up.
Out on the patio between the sports hall and the cafe', refreshments were taken at the outside tables giving a picnic atmosphere which come summer will be almost carnival.
Judging from the number of bulging bags many people found a bargain which no doubt will be repeated at the next events and those following so it looks like a lot more work on the day for the indomitable Jackie Hall (but she can do it)
The Campus can cater for many more stalls and cars so pass it on.
The next boots will be on the first Sunday of each month from 9am-1pm set up 8am
Cars £6.00. Car & Trailer £8.00
