Beaulieu Boat Jumble 2014

[C2 RIBS]

The event is again on on Sunday 27th April so just after Easter Weekend. They had to cancel last year due to weather, lets hope this year is good for all

Yes it was cancelled in 2012 but ran again last year.

Very good event this one, I try to go every year and use it to pick up some bargains ready for the rest of the years boating.

If you ignore the usual stands selling brand new stuff at shop prices, and those selling junk at daft prices, there are usualy some gems hidden away. But it's huge, so you need to allow plenty of time to walk around and find what you need.

The section of 'true' jumble stands where you can turn up and sell out of the back of your car is really worth a good look round.

As usual the only really bad thing is the price of the truly crap food on offer, so I'd suggest you take sarnies or at the least a packet of anti-acid tablets.

Are they not planning on holding one before this one in 90 years time?
Not sure I'll make it to this one (in 2104)

More muddy than Glastonbury this year. Just got back and now hiding the bags of rubbish I bought from the wife.

Mud bath :-( lot more traders previous years :-( but .... Got what I was looking for at good price:-) best stall was Gill but like a scrum!! Selling off seconds for peanuts, one guy bought a dry suit for £20! Tried to fight my way back in to see if I could find one but gave up :-( cheap shades and decent fleece for a tender thou :-)
