A day for a good rumble in the jumble ...


We will be heading over to Ferriere-Larcon and Obterre today to check out their annual 'l'Acension' brocantes - normally a good event. A 'brocante' or 'vide grenier' here in France is equivalent to a 'car-boot sale' or 'jumble sale' in the UK or 'yard/garage sale' in the US.   


I like the description of 'jumble' as 'an untidy collection or pile of things' which is apt for the way some stall holders present their wares.
