    That was fun! I liked the books the most. I was hoping I would see that pretty blue and white milk jug in your haul. ♥️ 😃 The chair will come in handy for you! 😊 it’s a lot of fun to see how you enjoy your day out and about! Thanks for taking us along!

    Hi Mr C….I used to work within the physio industry and was always told to avoid Chiropractors and see an Osteopath or Physiotherapist instead. Osteopathy is great at looking at your body as a whole and Physiotherapy tends to be more targeted. I’m so glad you ended up at an Osteopath 😃…hope it helps eventually 🤞🏼🍀🧡💚

    I think you could do a blog on your books. I am a bibliophile and love looking at other people's bookshelves. I prefer to purchase brand new books but every so often come across second hand books and am intrigued by their content. Today at a charity shop I bought two books, one on herbs that have medicinal properties and the other book on using an electric sewing machine for the first time user. I have my late mothers' sewing machine and really don't know how to properly use it. So a browse through your bookshelves would be interesting.

    The white crystal seems to be a moon stone, the black one might be an obsidian stone, the green one may be a fluorite crystal, the pink one does look like rose quartz stone also the dark brown one does seem to be a tiger's eye. We had to get one of those office chairs with lower back support, that also can be adjusted in height for my husband, he kept getting back pains. You can get them fairly cheap in IKEA and Amazon, even second hand if it is in good condition. It is a good investment to look into. I thought you would fall for the hampers and the shelf thing made of the material like the one used in baskets 😉

    Iwan, never be afraid to haggle, when told the price of something, I always ask if that is their best price and I usually get a discount. My favourite at the boot sale was the milk jug. From your purchases it has to be the books and the crystals for me - I love a good book.

  • @boxoffrogs9712

    The London books seem the perfect sort of thing to curl up with on a rainy afternoon and plan your next adventure. I had a similar chair, years ago, but with a metal frame. Mine was a lot more slopey but perfect for reading with a back rest on the beach without lugging a large lounger along. Think that you had a really successful trip. Oh and so great that you were able to buy cat gras for the kitties - I agree, not part of the challenge. Glad you took the extra cash along. However, I do think you need to successfully complete this challenge before moving down to a fiver, lol. Thanks for taking us, enjoy the rest of your week and I hope Pumpkin and Mittens enjoy finding that dropped bargain crystal. (Edit: re you redoing the tenner challenge - this only because I enjoyed the video and would like to see another one - I feel you might miss out on some astonishing items with half the budget.)

    Here in Germany they only really have an entrance fee for indoor flea-markets. The outdoor ones are financed by the vendors. I suppose they want to stop people from just browsing but it does seem a bit counterproductive. Even browsers will probably end up buying something and the more buyers the more vendors I would have thought.

Loved everything you bought especially the chair and crystals absolute bargains both of them. I would love to see you do a £5 challenge but I think it would be hard to do as that would be the time you would see something that would put you really over budget 😂😂but would be fun to watch.

    So happy your back feels better. The body has meridians and it seems they adjusted those easily so everything falls into natural place. Keep going. I thought for sure you would have picked up the Blue and White holder it was so pretty as well as it's sister 💙. I dig the lawn chair . What are you going to do with the sundown light? Would it show up on the loft window for a special effect? You did great. You looked fabulous today. You always do however today you sparkled ✨️. Cheers 🍻 have a fabulous week. I can't wait for your next pub crawl with Luke. I may pop over to London and would love to take your crew to dinner. Link your email. How dose Claridges sound or the Savoy? We must book ahead afternoon tea at Tiffany's. Of course I shall pay for the treats. Idea flash, if this is old news for you let's hit the road- You drive and we'll find a town, crash in a 5***** Castle and jolly around the pubs, restaurants and of course " Go shopping ".....Yippee Yahya. Or another thought I always wanted to swing into Monaco 🇲🇨. We can fly/train in get a full-blown car for all of us, Eat at the finest, stroll their pubs, SHOP, gamble a wee bit. OR choose a cruise. I would love to see all the shops at that huge plant you went to, was it a Armory or it was the massive power plant. That was truly amazing. I am thinking of popping over in October this year for 3 weeks. Oh your trip to Prague was darling. Let me know if anything sounds like a plan and I will begin the setup 😉. This will be a blast. Everyone is welcome. You friend from across the pond. 💜💜💜💜
