🌧️🚨 BREAKING NEWS: WE’VE DECIDED TO IGNORE THE WEATHER FORECAST 🚨🌧️
Yes Stephen Ablett… we looked at it. 😂
We didn’t just look at it once either. We’ve stared at it, zoomed in, refreshed it, checked three different apps and probably wasted half the morning trying to work out whether that little cloud means “light shower” or “Biblical flood.” 🤣
And yes… it looks a bit sh*tty. 🌧️😂
BUT…
The field is strong 💪
We’ve had loads of people asking us to give it a go 🙋♂️🙋♀️
And then we thought…
SOD IT. WHAT HAVE WE GOT TO LOSE?! 😂
Poynton Show is going ahead.
Southport Air Show is going ahead.
Wythenshawe Park is going ahead.
So surely Holly Lane Car Boot can survive a few drops of water?! 🤣
Worst case scenario, you get a bit wet.
Best case scenario, the forecast is completely wrong — which, let’s be honest, is one of the few things the British weather is consistently brilliant at. 🇬🇧😂
☔️ STALLHOLDERS: If you’ve got a gazebo, bring the bloody thing!
🛍️ No gazebo? Chuck a plastic sheet in the car.
🌧️ Rain starts? Hide under your gazebo and pretend you’re on a survival programme.
☀️ Sun comes out? Act like you knew it would all along. 😂
So we’re GIVING IT A GO!
🚗 HOLLY LANE CAR BOOT — OPEN SUNDAY!
Because cancelling it every time the forecast shows a cloud is no way to run a British car boot sale.
If we wanted guaranteed sunshine, we’d have opened one in Spain. 🇪🇸😂
See you Sunday… hopefully slightly damp, probably carrying a gazebo, and definitely looking for a bargain! 😂
