1 problem I find about horsey carboots...

I have been to MANY and sold absolutely nothing! Horsey people are renowned for wanting everything for nothing....and with some stuff, you just can't give it away!

I sell more horsey gear at a normal carboot, than I ever do at horsey ones....and yes, if I got looking for a bargain, i'm just the same, and expect a bargain! (yeah, I want it for practically nowt!) Haha!
 
I love going to them but my problem is, no one EVER sells anything in my size!! I'm always on the look out for full seat breeches in a size 30 or 32 waist (most often 32, LOL!) as I can't afford to buy new but all there ever is, is 24" and 26" waisted ones- I've not taken that size since I was 9! I'm hoping someone will have some this weekend :D
