The House Clearance People Are Back

 Needham Market boot sale at the weekend was much bigger than previous Saturdays but still not as busy as pre-covid days. There were several large vans there full of all the miscellaneous bits and bobs from houses they've cleared. Furniture and bigger household items etc probably go off to auction or sold elsewhere so what they bring to boot-sales is stuff just hauled out of cupboards and piled into boxes.
If my back and knees didn't object to rummaging through boxes on the ground then I'd probably look for longer so all I just picked up the two part-used boxes of  baking paper for 20p.
From a different seller the childrens doodle pad was 50p which is pretty good considering the label on the back saying it was bought from Heffers big bookshop in Cambridge for £5.99. It will be something  for Eldest Grandson to do when they visit next month. The only other things bought were the plants and pot on yesterdays post, a bunch of big  beetroot and a punnet of local strawberries...........

and I was still home in time for breakfast!
 
When I searched for a picture to see what plants I'd displayed on the old shabby chic ladder at the smallholding and the cottage I couldn't find one. But yesterday looked again and found this

 
That was the sort of thing I'd planned for the plant stand............... but I'm liking my new idea better.
Back Tomorrow

  1. I bet when you bought the plant stand you never imagined so many blog posts about it.

  2. In no time your new plant stand will be filled with lovely shades of green. The doodle pad is a good bargain and will provide nice entertainment for your grandchild. Knee pain? My holistic MD recommends: Alaskan Fish oil 2x daily, AlgeaCal (Calcium) 1,200 mg. daily and Vitamin D plus K (Metagenics) 2x per week to maintain bone health. All are available on Amazon.

    1. No knee pain normally but have to be careful in case it goes clunk like it did a while back

    1. It's got pages with things to do and colour - should keep him occupied for a while unless he's gone off drawing and colouring

  6. I can see why you wanted to find something similar to your original shabby chic ladder. It is lovely and so is your new one! I like the new header as well.

    1. The ladder was OK but the steps were narrow so all the pots had to be wired on. The new one is much better

  10. Your new header did make me laugh! I guess cemeteries usually make for quiet and hopefully contented neighbours

  14. I was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
    liver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
    reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
    became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
    ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
    treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
    the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
    treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
