On a whim a few weeks in the past me and Him went for a mosey to Kings Cross, to research the Traditional Automobile Boot Sale. A whim it might have been, nevertheless it turned out to be a WHEELY good day (sorry/not sorry).
Popping up in London and Hastings a few occasions a yr, the Traditional Automobile Boot Sale brings collectively a complete fleet of Classic lovers. They rock up of their fantastically shiny, restored motors from days passed by, and arrange stall promoting all method of classic booty- garments, vinyl, homeware, and a complete lot extra.
You probably have a concern of mothballs and would reasonably have a bit of hand-crafted piece made only for you, then there’s just a few stalls only for you! We fell HARD IN LOVE with the attractive hand-painted indicators that had been being created on-site, and my coronary heart skipped a beat once I spied all of the vintage-inspired bouquets and potted preparations from Mr Spencer’s Flower van.
After strolling spherical all of the stalls and attempting on our fair proportion of 60’s sun shades, 40’s hats and 50’s costume jewelry, we made our option to essentially the most thrilling bit- THE GRUB!
Located round a makeshift dancefloor, a few of London’s greatest road meals vans had parked up and had been busy flogging their wares to grasping cut price hunters.
Cheese toastie in hand (omg yum) we settled down with a few beers from the Routemaster Bus Bar and watched folks swing dance to the music being DJed stay by Soho Radio and revellers decked out in essentially the most STUNNING classic getups stride by.
Starvation and thirst totally sated, we discovered time to take a look at the Dangerous Karma Impala- a charity fundraiser engaging you to graffiti on a automotive, and stopped by the cellular classic cinema for a sneaky screening (which was so comfortable and cosy!).
I had no concept that the occasion could be this COOL and I completely suggest you try the subsequent one if you happen to’re out there for a enjoyable, vibrant and FUNKY day (sure, I’m bringing funky again guys).
