Books and books and Other Finds oh and did I mention Books?

Lovely Laura and I raced in early to the annual oppy book sale.I cant say it was all that great  but LL had alot of fun and found books she was looking for to complete her sets.LL has announced she wants a record player I think it was a hint?? She nearly bought some old vinyls and changed her mind because she cant play them.Sure doesnt stop me from having a stash tho  lol.

I headed to table 3 first which were the Collectables hmm well yere they were old and some were nice but I am not paying $6 for a home Journal magazine no matter how nice the covers are.I then went to the craft table talk about popular I really dont like to fight my way thru people so may go armed next time lol.
Here are my books.......

Guitar coz I have a couple and really do want to learn (lessons always few and many years in beteween but I do adore the sound of guitars.That book was $1.Stitch N bitch I have heard about and was only $1 as well.Now for my fav the Brief History of Unmentionables ha ha  some great pics inside.I also picked up 2 knitting books one for lace patterns,Will be knitting again very very soon.

Why oh why do pics go sideways sometimes? Oh well am tooo tired to fix now hope you can crane your neck for a peak at the unmentionalbles.

More kids books.... Buntings here I come (very very soon) I  missed out on a heap of Enid Blytons darn it.Was watching a lady pick up a huge bundle of them while I was in the check out line I am surprised no one had nabbed them already ,I would have.Note to self wear blinkers next time to avoid disapointment!!!
                                            
My box of Thursday goodies (sorry about the blur) Thursday was a great day for treasure hunting,

                   Lets open the box and unwrap some treasures.Look at that urrrgly cat its a cookie jar and it has weird eyes but I couldnt resist as I think she may be old?Poodle and owl and cats,lotsa cats,origamni paper and an old photoalbum made in Vietman its the red polished book with flowers,I also love the box it all came from Bootooloo where the heck is that? Even Google wouldnt tell me but looks like they grow capsicums.Oh and look another ceramic dog my collection is growing.

I saw this small pile of plates and only saw the top one said 50c I thought great wasnt till I got home and saw how cute they were.Do people still collect these? They are all Mothers Day ones from the 80s.I will be selling them on if so

I couldnt resist this 60s fish and shell bowl coz reminds me of my mums shell bowl she has had forver most like a wedding presnt must ask her.
                                    


Then I got this at next oppy. Old bras (new project stay tuned) Glass salt and pepper shakers,cute water can,another tapestry purse,and a VW beetle brooch was 50c today, 2 days earlier old lady wanted $2 for it ha methinks I will wait and ask someone more my price range and I won.
