A good day out...


We went yesterday with seasoned brocanters Dennis & Angela over to the monthly flea-market on the banks of the Loire at Montsoreau. It was one we had wanted to visit for a while and were glad we did.



Set out along the old quayside it is mainly professional dealers with an interesting array of  'stuff'  - not unlike the monthly Chinon market - with dealer prices!


Did not seem to be a way out of paying the high prices.

There were some interesting items on display...

   

and with Pauline and Angela taking more of a keen  interest than Denis and me, they ended up quite a way behind us.


 so much so that I had time to try out this chap's sofa for a while as we waited for them to catch up...I had let him know that I had no interest in buying it before I sat down but he did not seem to have a problem with that!


It was an interesting visit and t'm sure we will be back.
