Hi,

As I had to miss the Jumble - go on, tell me about all the bargains you guys had?

I managed to save myself about $23 & a lot of hassle, I didn't go! There were supposed to be 3 of us, 2 dropped out at the last minute so I bought my galv chain, & Seagull head gasket, (the 2 things I really wanted) on e-bay instead.
Pottsy reckoned it wasn't up to much, & the hassle of getting out of that car park has always been a downer!
So I saved my diesel money & my entrance fee by buying online, which aint as much fun really, so roll on Margam!

My experience in previous years has been the same, Margam is much better and usually larger with more of those "seek and find" stalls of second hand bits you can't get new like the odd cleat to match another etc - Glad I did'nt go nw then and I feel much better for knowing it - cheers!
