Thanks for pics David, it seems Launceston is approaching its full quota of McLarens! Rather fond of the Eddison roller.

We really enjoyed ourselves. Agree it seemed very quiet and I think they will be banking on a good Saturday. Trade stand lettings also seemed down though maybe some will pull on Friday - crafts half empty it seemed to me. Much better layout though and the changes worked well.

The Beaulieu autojumble has moved this year to clash, most of the lads with the good gear will have gone there.

Agreed - but the same was true of general workers in the main gaff section.

I can honestly say the only stalls Ive ever looked at at Dorset are Autojumble or tools. The rest is the sort of shit you can buy at any market the rest of the year for 2/3 of the price.

I spoke to at least two traders at Onslow who were not going to Dorset because of Beaulieu.

Lots of Good stuff still on the stalls, be it fewer than usual, just had to look for it. I know we all got some good bargains! I spent rather a lot of money! lol

uunfortunatly some stall owners didn't clear up after themselves.. walked past an empty pitch that had lots of tat just thrown on the floor. Such a shame.. other than that it looked like alot of it was from Geordie shore.. good steam turn out tho
