hey guys just got back from skegness today, went there for a small break with the family as my girlfriends dad has a static caravan there.
anyway after doing all the big booty,s down there and finding nothing im a bit gutted
all together i done 7 bootsales 2 of which was huge, did,nt find anything, only boxes on offer was mono,s and i hate mono,s
it just shows how rare these boxes have become over the last few years, i was really hoping to score down there so i could come on here and post up my finds
anyway alls good guys i had a really nice time and got great enjoyment seeing my kids smiling and having fun.
iv,e gotta say i missed this place and iv,e only been absent 4 days...

Old skeggie eh. Blimey, i`ve had some good times there. What`s it like these day`s?

hi LITFAN hows things, iv,e only been visiting skeg for about 5 yrs now and it has,nt really changed in that small time, iv,e gotta say it,s a real buzzing place it was hammered over the weekend as it usually is.
loads to do there especially for the kids, loads of bootsales too, one on nearly everyday of the week im skint now though it is quiet expensive down there i hate being back it,s depressing, but as they say, y gotta plod on

Is it still the same route down. Down the old A1?

yes you can still go the A1 way but we go another route which is about 30 mins quicker, from rochdale jump on the M62, onto the M18, then the M180, then the A18, then the A16, then the A1028, it,s a really nice drive down, well im actually a passenger so i get all the nice views

Ha ha. Yeah, that`s me these day`s. It`s a while since i was down there. Have they finished that job at blyth yet. They were just starting it, before i became ill.

yes it was finished at the end of 2008 that,s presuming your on about the big roundabout on the A1 which they got rid of

THat`s the one. Nuisance. Is the roundabout still there, at the next jct? Another pain.

hey lav we missed you, i didnt see you here for a while,,, started geting worried, good that everything went well for you, except the boxes of course.

Like we're the only ones.. Not in the least bit weird..

Skeggie, donnie, pontie, wakie, shef. Ah lad.

you gotta check out the link 2STEPPA put up of american town names, f***ing great stuff, the weirdest names on the planet deffinetly belong to the U.S

I wonder what bummerville is like? .

no idea LITFAN but it,s a bit of a queer name
maybe a bit like NASHVILLE but only not as many people batting for the same team

. Yeah, If anyone say`s "your shoelace is undone", ignore em.

id make sure i was wearing sandals just to be on the safe side

Don`t drop the soap either.

and don,t walk down the street with the village peoples YMCA booming from your box

Well, anyway welcome back Lav.

Haha, bummerville! haha

2 steppa And why there's no Berlin and Hanover in that page:]

don,t know about a crime DAVE but it defo sounds a bit suss
what about TOAD SUCK?? i think they,ve been eating too much genetically modified food

Glad to see you blokes are having some fun with this

all thanks to you RELI

Reli, i can't believe you have towns in America called INTERCOURSE and CLIMAX,
if they are near to each other, a bus destination blind would read, - CLIMAX
via INTERCOURSE hey we can have some fun with this

i can ADE it,s america
by the way where have you been stranger??

See that's the thing about America, some "towns" only have a dozen people in them. So they can get away with having obscene names, because they don't exist on road maps sold in shops.

Hey guys...
Long time huh?
I just had to get in on this one.
I live in Tennessee, right outside of Nashville, and i have to say, Tennessee had some of the strangest names I've ever seen.
By the way Lav, wut u got against Nashville??

hey absolutely nothing against NASHVILLE DOUG, it was the only american name i could think of that rhymed with BUMMERVILLE
hope no offence taken man

Whoops, put your foot in it there Lav, looks like our American friends don't appreciate Brit humour.

No worries!! I am not the least bit offended.
Besides, we got some strange goins on down south here...I like fried bologna and pork skins!! how crazy is that??

good stuff DOUG glad you seen my point there, and fried bologna and pork skins...no thanks
and ADE, i think our brothers across the pond understand our humour

we also have guys named D!cks. hehehe

us too DT
anyway over here in the UK has it,s fare share of weird names too
i can,t think of any of hand but there is pleanty trust me

Yeah, but. Can you imagine. You are at a packed dinner table. Someone asks where you live. You say "bummerville", erm.

It could be worse...
