Brocante de l'Ascension, Richelieu 2014

As in previous years, we went to take a look round the Brocante de l'Ascension in Richelieu, this morning.

The weather was kind for this public holiday and there was a mix of all the usual Brocante things... some reasonably pleasant...

Some rather bizarre...
(what's Colin doing in the wardrobe???)

And some frankly quite disturbing... (see below; not Colin in the wardrobe!!)

Now if anyone saw the progamme "French Collection" and felt inspired to come to the brocantes of France and buy with the intention of "up-cycling" and selling on in the UK at a profit.......

Forget it!!!

At the prices we saw today, all you are going to make is a gaping hole in your bank balance!!

If you come for the atmosphere and the sheer enjoyment of it, you'll not be disappointed!

That stuffed badger would make a good scratching pole for the cats....
but I am not sure I have ever seen many other things that make you wonder "Why!!?" as much as this does....
either it was someones favourite Brock...
or, more likely....
a pet hate??
Either way....
it is plain wierd!!!
