Late this morning I was told by two different people that there will be a boot fair in Charlton Centre Car Park on Sunday week 29th January.

I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

Yes it is on there are posters in shop windows, but I do not think that Charlton Centre is open you would have to use the car entrances.

That is not a good start, ended before it even started. I suppose it could be the logistics were not thought through properly.

Not really the sort of weather traders want to turn up in - try again in the spring/summer
Been nice knowing you :)

HOWARD;
You are of course correct, the car park had loads of visitors in the time i was there and a lot of dissapointed people leaving the area
