Last Saturday was Preuilly's brocante.
According to the Cambridge Dictionary, Translation of brocante – French–English dictionary:
brocante noun [ feminine ] /bʀɔkɑ̃t/ (activité commerciale) vente d’objets anciens : secondhand goods trade.
According to Susan, Brocante = junk. We don't ever buy stuff at the brocante, and you can tell how interested we are by the fact that it would appear from our photo index that we didn't go last year. In fact we did go, but I remember saying to Susan "we can't blog that, I didn't take a photo".
This year we went after swimming to buy lunch, which was very well organised, and quite good value. Two sausages and chips (fries) for 6€. If you look carefully you can see Susan lining up for lunch (with The Vicar in the forground).
While waiting for lunch I recalled that 16 years ago we picnicked on the banks of the Claise prior to signing for our house. You can read about that event here.
