Went to the boot sale at the place we call he donkey farm (there hasn't been a donkey there since we first went around 10 years ago)..and other people call Walnut Tree farm.
A lovely working farm quite a drive away.
Lot of stalls..I found these plant weights.
Which are just little pieces of lead..the power of marketing...
MINIMUM CONTENTS 10 PIECES

Another one of my vices...

Bought of an old chap on the boot sale in Whitegate. He said it had belonged to his neighbough who was a fisherman and used this to clamp his hooks in to wind  flies. A bargain at £2 with free story.

Compass

We went to Blakemere (again) and there was a stall in a tent outside. I paid more for this than I usually do for small metal things..but he did throw in a lead holder too. I loved the little lever on the side which allows you to lock down the pointer so it isn't swinging aorund whilst you trek up the mountain.

It looks well used.
