Grande Vente Emmaus 2016

Today was the start of the three day Grande Vente Emmaus, at Chatellerault's Parc d'Expo...

Driving through the town took some pictures of the Vienne, swollen with the recent rainfall..

Whatever this sign said, it was pretty much useless today....

You can see from the line of debris just how high the flood waters had been...

The Grande Vente proved as interesting as ever and in addition to our purchases we bumped into Gaynor doing equally well with her 'finds'.

Tim, where were you??

I'm gutted that I had to miss it, being too busy getting stuff done before going back to England.
Were there LOTS of ramekins?.........no, don't tell me.........I'm upset enough already!
Yours looks like a good haul, I'm envious of the jug collection. Don't tell anyone but I think I already have more jugs than ramekins! Those small white ones are good pourers, I know because I got one last year.
Sigh.........
Wonder how well that Gaynor did.........?
