I did wonder if the Trench Lane car boot was in the afternoon - but there weren't even any signs up suggesting that it was going to take place at all.
Glad you enjoyed the Frenchay Hospital one - it did look very good and if we hadn't got a car full of things to sell, then we might have stopped to have a gander!
Next time you take your boyfriend along, I suggest you leave him behind at one of the sales! LOL

We went to the Frenchay one as buyers. Extremely good car boot with no traders (maybe they have a rule) it was very refreshing to see so many proper car booters and i got a few good buys (even if my other half managed to leave some of them at the next car boot we went to by accident grrrr)
The Bradley stoke trench lane car boot is (meant to be) an afternoon car boot from approx 12-4 so you were possibly too early although as a rule people do arrive very early for it as it is not very well advertised as being a pm boot sale.
Its good that there are so many car boots in the Bristol/Bath area now, certainly gives us something to do on a sunday!

Hi all,Just to let you know that the car boot sale at Frenchay Hospital took place today. I understand that people were queueing to sell from 6am - before the organisers even arrrived but by 8am they were having to turn sellers away. We arrived at 8.15am - too late to get a pitch :)I thought that it was taking place every Sunday, but was told by one of the organisers that it only takes place every four weeks - so four weeks from today will be the next one.Doesn't quite match up with the Bristol Evening Post entry which said every Sunday.We went along to Trench Lane, Bradley Stoke, but no one appeared to be there at 9am - it hadn't been in the Evening Post so we weren't even sure if it was taking place. I will try to keep a look out in the Evening Post for all the sales that take place and update here with any news.Karen
