Oops! Search as mum sells son's favourite toy
The rocking horse, which had been hers as a little girl, went for just £10....but seven-year-old James was so devastated she is desperately seeking the buyer.
Mrs Davies said: “I’d had the rocking horse since I was five. We’d just moved from Manor Park to our new house in Groveland Road, Newbury, and I was having a clear out.
“I really didn’t think James would miss it and so it was sold at a car boot sale at Newbury Racecourse on Sunday.”
She added: “That evening James went running up to his room and was devastated that it was gone. I was mortified - I really didn’t think he would miss it but he was really upset.
“I thought: ‘What have I done?’ All I can do is hope that the person who bought it hasn’t become that attached to it and might be prepared to sell it back to us.”
