Heard of Mad March Hares but not May madness?  :uglystupid2:

Really? Always been lots of "May  Madness" events I've heard of - especially sporting ones and online challenges. You need to get out more oldboy ;D. Anything a bit silly or whacky will do

This morning was the return of the largest vide grenier - car boot - event in the Dordogne, after 2 years away. It was heaving, beautiful weather. We were early and had to park more than 5oo metres away; by the time we left the on the road parking stretched back well over a kilometre. A young couple, looking confused, stopped to ask us where the event actually was - they'd already been walking for 2o minutes form where they parked the car, and had about another 10-15 to go just to get to the entrance.

A chap walking towards us had a trolley some some kind with only one wheel on it. It seems that people will buy just about anything when the sun is shining and the euros are burning a hole in their pocket.

Aarrgh!
Woken up this morning I realised I didn't put my entry in. :uglystupid2: :doh:
Having a stupid moment.

I'll be doing the poll at lunchtime - 12.30. If it's in by then I'll include it if you like. Sure no-one  will mind

Thanks Jinky, just got in from work and seen this. Thanks though.
I'll try and be more organised next week.
