...his car!
He got ÂĢ5,500 for it when our local dealership only offered ÂĢ4,500.
I couldn't believe it...makes me wonder how he got home though
I wasn't born at the time and Mum never did say what she called him but her sister and husband were going on holiday with them and they were in a separate car and they didn't stop when they saw them there, they just sailed on past!

Good on your Dad, he sounds like my hubby!
Talking of CBoot sales - anyone done one and sold stuff that isn't their car btw?! Only I'm de-cluttering as we're doing the house and and as an ex-lecturer I have loads of books ranging from 11yrs-uni and ornaments I don't want (my late Mum used to be a manageress in Debenhams and she used to buy everything - lovely stuff, too good to throw away).
I just sold our washing machine to a bloke - well 10 mins ago as we're doing the house up (after 28 yrs! and the kids are leaving!) I had to carry it half way down the Street as it didn't have wheels and he couldn't park any closer - he did say I 'not many women would have don't that'! I do work out three times a week but god that was heavy! But, I'm glad it's gone - he wants our fridge/freezer now so I have to find an integrated one,they're so much smaller

i often sell things but as i don't have a car my daughter obliges, or you could advertise the lot in your local paper e.g. "car boot sale items"
