29/12/16: Millennium Falcon (Dogs Trust)

Dogs Trust, Whetstone. This model Millennium Falcon was priced at £40, despite missing the cockpit piece. Not exactly a bargain. However, it soon sold.

19/12/16: Star Wars figurines (North London Hospice)

North London Hospice, Whetstone. Figures include Watto (not to scale), a stormtrooper, Darth Maul, Han Solo, Boba Fett, Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Padme Amidala, R2-D2, Chewbacca and an Ewok.

13/08/16: Jar Jar Binks (Barnardo's)

Barnardo's, Whetstone. Everyone's least favourite Star Wars character finds himself alongside the Mon Calamari Rebel commander Admiral Ackbar and some other, lesser figurines.

19/09/15: Star Wars jigsaws / family of gnomes (North London Hospice)

North London Hospice, North Finchley. Slightly tempted by the original Star Wars jigsaws – particularly "Inside the Millennium Falcon" – although they seemed pricey at £5. Rather less tempted by the gnomes – "sold as family £20". Instead, I bought a bargain CD – Animals by Pink Floyd for only 75p:

17/01/15: Darth Vader (The Loft)

The Loft, East Barnet. A clothing-only charity shop. I tried on an attractive purple-ish shirt, but it was too big – and anyway the collar was worn out. They also had Beatles, Rolling Stones and Darth Vader T-shirts. No purchase made, despite the "Buy one, get one half price" sale offer.
