MOVIE
The same movie of the sale is available in two different formats.
Try the Streamed Movie first.

Streamed Movie
Quicktime Movie (.mp4 file, 3.5MB)

If you experience problems with the streamed movie, then download the other movie format:
The Quicktime movie (.mp4 file) is for Quicktime Player (Macs or Windows PCs).
To download any of this player, click on the link.

If either of the Movies fail to play, then please let us know by clicking here.

MOVIE MUSIC
The background music to the movie is a track called "Less Red Than Red", by Derek K Miller, used under the Creative Commons Licence.

IMAGES
The images below capture aspects of the sale on Sat 29th September 2007.

In the space of 2 hours, over 2800 items were sold to all the people who again queued patiently around the church and out onto the street. All of the profits from the day will go towards the Sick Kids Hospital and the Polwarth Church Hall fund.

Alice, Elaine and all
the helpers before
the sale.

Mike and Dom serve
teas and coffees
to the long queue
before the sale starts.



And happy shoppers
leave laden with
their bargain buys...

THE MARQUEE MENTION
As ever, the real heroes of the day were on site at 7:30am to put up the marquees and to take them down again 6 hours later. Their names are recorded here to help make it all seem worthwhile: Nevil H, Mike A, Andy B, John M, Gordon M, Richard H, Ross W, Rory M, Ron M, Alan P, Nigel H and Simon I. If you want to see movie footage of the Marquees going up and down at the April 2007 sale, then follow this link. It does, however, take a little longer than that movie suggests.....
