We are on!!!
Mitchell at 1:00pm TODAY IS ON and Newquay at 3:00pm this afternoon!!! (Subject to weather) - update: 12:25Happy faces at Falmouth today~we were on the grass, not the SMOKING variety!!
During the last few days we have had several sellers phone to ask 'are we on the grass' at Falmouth and if I say NO then they will not sell in the dusty car park conditions so up to seven of our valued local customers stayed away. This means that last week alone 70 people had to go home and completely wash all their unsold stock because the winds blew high dusts onto my customers stalls when we seriously SHOULD have been on the dead ball areas which in no way affects the pitch. Today common sense prevailed and the…Tell them NOTHING!
Amongst the sellers today was a stall surveying our customers asking personal questions about your household bills and for taking part in the survey and also parting with your home address & mobile number. They claim that you will be entered into a competition for a Mini Car WALOBS! You have more chance of King Kong moving next door to you and eating your grandchildren than winning a Mini. Tell them NOTHING because your address and all your personal details are then sold on and on and on and you become a target for all sorts of unwanted crap in…MITCHELL problems?
Many of you will remember when we started our first ever Car Boot Sale at Mitchell ten years ago but today we have a huge problem because of its popularity. We do not have enough spaces for buyers and sellers. We do nothing to encourage the influx of people apart from this website and our directional signs, we have proven what a complete waste of money was spent by us on advertising in the West Briton when its you our customers who have spread the word! Thank you... Back to Mitchell our problem is serious with our dispute over Councillor…Christmas Day 2012 & 7 weekend pictures
You have all seen the picture on our HOME PAGE of the air-view at Mitchell and I asked Gavin to give it a title Christmas Day at Mitchell 2012 You would be amazed how annoyed some people have got over my joke title to the picture but best of all I have had serious requests to hold a real Christmas Day 2013 at MITCHELL this year. What say you? Tell me, ask me? Becky is our Manager and takes over all of the Car Boot Sales in our absence. On Thursday at Newquay she was watching a couple of ladies…A very serious matter; Did you hear him using offensive language to our team ?
CARBOOTSCORNWALL; copy email for your information correspondence between ourselves and St Newlyn Parish Council. From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Subject: RE: MITCHELL CAR BOOT SALE Date: Mon, 27 May 2013 18:57:29 +0000 Dear Madam, I must report to you the details of a visit to our Car Boot Sale on Saturday of a person whom I now know to be Councillor Chris Tankard from St Newlyn East Parish Council who apparently was carrying out a traffic survey on behalf of the Council.

As our regulars know we are not at TRURO this Saturday as it is farm machinery sale day also we are not at Wadebridge due to next week's Royal Cornwall Show. Which puts a lot of pressure on Mitchell particularly as the weather for the weekend is very good and I think as we had such a crap year last year due to the sodding weather you all deserve the extra opportunity for more exercise in the warm sun. I must advise that we may restrict the sellers at Mitchell in total which may result in latecomers being directed to…Honestly, I have been busy!
What a lovely weekend with the sunshine and warm weather making life that much happier 'so let's go and do a boot sale' and almost 700 sellers arrived between Truro, Mitchell, Mabe and Lanhydrock for Bank Holiday Saturday and Sunday with crowds up to 11,000 supporting weekly the Community Car Boot Sales. Happiness prevailed-well almost but that is another story in few days whilst we get the full facts.
