On Sunday Geoff and I trucked it down to the NSRA southern swap meet. I bought a few nik naks so I thought I'd do a little informal show and tell.
Thanks for dropping by, take care and I'll see you next Friday for the regular video update.
Mart.

I enjoy going to swap meets, you never know what your going to find. My wife on the other hand worries on what I might drag home.

Heh heh, GB we hear you, I figured on the back of my envelope, if that plate was 45 pounds in weight then it was about 1.7 pounds weight per US dollar.

'Atta Boy Mart, ALL that lot were nicely bought ('septing that torn intake gasket, but it was part of a lot purchase I wager).

Lessons learned.

1. Make written notes of what I bought and where.

2. Say 'Please hold this under your truck and I'll come back later today?' and refer back to lesson 1.

3. Plan ahead to have wheeled transport lined up if I covet large/heavy jewels.

4. Be nice to your swap meet buddies.
