As you drive down the high way through farm lands on the way to Philip Island you are greeted by what you think is a junkyard, the word Bazzar is painted on the roof and a sign for pies and a drink greets you. As you pull in you better hope your not hungry, turns out the sign is just one of an amazing assortment of ... well is leftovers the right word?.. on offer at this amazing second hand proprietary.
It turns out after a discussion with the owner that all the locals rent space at this bizarre place and pull the dusty forgotten items from there shed and leave here hoping to catch somebody's eye as they wander through.
So let's begin our journey around the outside of this amazing place,
This first thing I stumble across, literally as it sits in the middle of the path like it just gave up the ghost mid plow, is a tractor. I am notsure if it a training a tractor, a tractor for a very small farm or a over engineered lawn ornament but it is about the size of a small pony and extremely rusted
Next is a picnic table, one of six if I counted correctly and the first of many many bundles of rope. There also signs from the local footy team and something called a koala drive that I hope saved a fair few.
We then come to what is I think anyway the main price of this display, a pretty rusted fridge! No it is of course the boat car that seats at least 18 people. Now are we near a famous island so maybe that is what it is for, or the army once lost a vehicle or... well I am really out of ideas at this stage but it was pretty amazing to stumble across it.
And of course some random fans exposed to the elements but still functional according to the owners, neatly tucked away beneath the boat car thing.
We then come to the mini House, perhaps owned by the same person who wished for the mini tractor and is waiting for the fans to be installed. It is not the greatest of repair but I am sure someone, somewhere has been waiting for this small house and has a crane big enough to move it.
And what house is complete without a sound system, sure it only plays tapes and one of these is just the amp, and sure it has again been in the weather, but I'm sure it's still fine. In all seriousness it was pretty cool looking piece of equipment and I'm not sure how many are left around.
As we made our way back to front we once again find more rope, seriously I'm never buying new rope again just fells like a waste at this stage. Not sure what the rope was on but it looked pretty cool.
And finally we came to a minimalist saw, not much to it.
I joked alot but this place is pretty amazing and I have bought stuff here before. Some time soon I'll do a second post of what is INSIDE this amazing, but bizarre, Bazzar.
