Car boots & Markets

I am told that too many stolen goods eventually turn up in car boot sales.

Had something stolen from my place and surprise surprise happened to see it for sale at someone's stall in Kilkenny Car Boot.

Did you confront the seller?

No, figured I get no joy anyway because I don't think he was the lad that did the deed, more than likely he bought it from someone else, he is a 'regular' with an indoor stall....plus I'd be probably asked to prove if it was mine or sling my hook.

If it was a high value item I would raise a ruckus, my bad for leaving it in an unsecured shed. Did not like the idea of someone prowling around when no-one is at home, so everything is under lock and key now.

Whatever about old dears selling a few toys and crockery...I would be wondering about the origins of the large numbers of second hand power tools fellas with large vans would be selling....lots of things tend to go 'missing' on construction sites.
