I've done that "struggle walk" back to the car a thousand times. 35 years of booting and re-selling. Loved every minute. Retired now...and miss it so much. I re-live my glory years of booting through your videos now George. 👴👍👍👍

This was such a joy to watch. Started going to car boot sales as a kid with my mum because we couldn't afford much growing up. I now run my own very successful IT consultancy but I rarely miss a boot sale. It's like treasure hunting!

hi George, about cleaning the typewriter, like you were saying it can take a while to get all the grime etc off but a top tip I found on cleaning the letter slugs was using blue tac or some old play doh, just roll it into a small ish ball (make sure you get it warm and sticky) and dab it onto the slugs and it pulls all the old ink off, some online videos show you how to dismantle all the metal keys to do it and it can take hours, this method takes a few minutes, if that, and they come up like new lol, can also work on some other hard to get to areas too if you wrap the blu tac at the end of some tweezers or a long screwdriver 👍

Oh dont get me started - i sell at antique and collectors fairs occasionally - there are people - when you have a bit of a crowd looking at what you are bringing out - who grab a few things and hold them - then once the crowd moves on having bought what they want they put the things back down again - one woman held on to something so long i had to ask her if she was going to buy it - she said she wasnt sure so i told her to put it back till she decides - you get all sorts

I've had it before where even if your holding onto it someone will come in and buy it out of your hands, then it depends on the seller at that point, needs to be a little more respect when others are looking within reason of course they can't say they are looking at the whole stall !!!
