OMG its ONE hour to go and then…..Come on England!
I heard a rumour that Rooney was whistling "I'm going home, going home" but it was only a rumour however at NEWQUAY today at our Car Boot Sale I did a survey "would England win tonight" and the women were emphatic in their reply "NO" Why cant they say "YES" occasionally. Anyway I hope England gets what it deserves tonight but I do detect that there is not a lot of enthusiasm amongst our 1000 odd customers today but learn a lesson from this, if England were to go all the way in this most corrupt WORLD CUP it would…WELL DONE ENGLAND !
Nearly all of the people who spoke with me about England and its chances of beating ITALY all said that England would lose, the whole country believed that we would lose and we lost, so there! The biggest criticism comes from the women who have said "these players are so rich they don't really make that extra effort to win for England, most of them are millionaires filthy rich spoilt brats to say nothing about Rooney who has passed his sell by date" and at the end when we lost the players wander around the field almost in an overacted…GO 4 IT England!!
Have a great time at Mitchell today then home for a Barbeque then get the kids off to bed have a quick cuddle on the settee, turn the telly on and watch England lose! I do hope not but there is not the great enthusiasm like in previous years from our customers. I only saw one flag today which was lying in the gutter? A couple of stall holders are selling flags from the past 3 world cups, good luck to them and COME ON ENGLAND!Friday at Falmouth Rugby Club;
We seriously get a lot of phone calls enquiring which Car Boot Sales are on and we answer sometimes in person but mostly by answer phone. Today a man phoned and said “At the risk of being abused on ‘Geoff Says’ could I ask what time Falmouth is on please” What a bloody nerve, so I am an abuser am I? Anyway his comment made my day that in some way people think I am a rude old bastard and most of the time I agree wholeheartedly with them. Thank you! Now then, the gossip machine CAPITAL of Cornwall (Hayle…Tuesday at Newquay and the bloody BBC got it wrong again!
Poor forecasting by the BBC does very little to enhance our business and is even worse for the sellers who decide "the BBC says its gonna rain" so we wont sell today! Over 60 sellers decided to brave the bad weather which did not arrive. It really pisses me off when the BEEB forecasts so badly that people decide 'let's stay at home for the day' And you get local these local TV weather presenters who could surely do well by going around some of our car boot sales to buy something decent to wear, some of the clothes the…News and GOSSIP!
On Tuesday and Thursday last week we shared the grounds at Newquay with the Anderton & Roland’s fairground which raised a few complaints from people who wanted to moan just for the sake of it. We the car booters do not have any absolute rights to use the lands but the Fairground has because they actually are the owners of the land so if they want to come and do another fair I will give them all the support they gave to us on both days which drew record crowds to both events. At Mitchell on Saturday some sellers arrived…I made a mistake with the leaflet and I am very sorry. Actually I couldnt give a toss…
Ok so I got it wrong but I have told everyone it was Lou who made the mistake but both of us proof read the leaflet so they will be reprinted. The error is that we advertise Mitchell on a Wednesday but we are NOT! we tried Wednesdays before and there was not much support however I am wanting to change MONKEY TREE from a Sunday to WEDNESDAYS at 12.00 noon when we start our season. Any comments please ? The 'I am missing Marge' campaign worked with loads of gossip about her travels however she is back and looks…COBER VALLEY BALL SPLASH Charity for Air Ambulance! Come splash your BALLS !
Geoff Says; Here is a good way to raise money for Air Ambulance you buy the numbered balls from the sellers at our Car Boot Sale and on a selected day all of the balls are thrown into the COBER river and the first three balls that pass the finishing line wins some great prizes! At two quid a ball with all the monies raised going to Air Ambulance. Seems like a great idea and a good community thing to do why not run a boot sale there that'll bring the crowds out! We will give them FREE stalls for…Bleeding dogs;

I have been reading some of your comments about dogs. I think you and I are on the same wave length I actually don’t like dogs very much but after saying that I would be the first to report someone if they were ill treating there dog or in fact any pet. I just can’t stand people who treat them like human beings etc. It’s a dog for goodness sake, while good company for someone…Dogs! I am bored sick with some peoples attitude about Dogs left in CARS!!
On Saturday at a very busy Mitchell some person/s had tied their dog to the outside of the car, the dog slipped through the lead and caused loads of concern from a few busy bodies who drew my attention to the fact that some dog is running around allegedly distressed. Well here we are again getting advice what to do from a load of moaners the "You should do more about it" brigade. I get another car where a dog is locked in with allegedly 'no air' in the car. Frankly I cannot concern myself with two dogs who are…Page 48 of 109
