cheers!

Clitheroe is now £1.00 or £1.20 to get in now,a rip off in my opinion,but i must admit i go sometimes but not as much as i used to.....and you have the choice of going outside......the meat off the guy there is superb........nice steak!!

Colne Leisure Centre have one every sunday,its not big but you can get some good stuff.....i bought a big hi-fi with cd and separate turntable,all in working order for £15 a few weeks ago.......and the best thing about it is the sale is inside.....so you dont freeze.

Gisburn still have one i think,50p for car park but it is all outside and i suggest you do not go if it is raining,unless you have some good wellies.

I am not sure if there are any in Burnley,if they were i am sure i would know about it,unless some churches and places like that hold them.

Fat chance of one in Burnley. :(

There is also the market on at Whalley but I don't know when thats on.

Clitheroe always seemed to have the same traders on selling new items (which they were not supposed to do), very few genuine car boots. However on a good day it can be a stopping point on the tour of cb's.

There is also Blackburn market car stack, 8Am-1PM.
Is the grane mill in Haslingdon still going?

Gisburn was always a goodun, but prices seemed to have risen (at all car boots).

I doubt I'll get to go out to one, er indoors wants to decorate this wekend (new wardrobes means new wallpaper needed).

The market at grane mill was a saturday wasn't it?Is it still on?

Whalley used to be one week,and then gisburn the next week,but haven't seen the signs for whalley for months........does anyone else know if they still do whalley near the plant centre?

There is a massive one near the moterway at Blackpool and you can all go to GC's for a cup of tea after!:coffeecup

Depends how far they are willing to travel,been to the blackpool one a few times,and they have some good stuff there!!.....JUST A PAIN TO GET OUT OF THE ROAD.......LOL

[dunkin.donuts]

is the one at Blackpool open every week? is it best to go when the weather's good? or does it get a good turnout anyway?

we might try the one at Gisburn or Colne this week - depends on the weather tomorrow

cheers!

Yes i think the blackpool one is on every week.........It is the junction before the very end of the motorway.......and it is a busy one,the biggest in blackpool i believe.

Remember the colne one is inside so the weather shouldn't be a problem.......I think that has gone up to 75p entry.
