WHAT A STUNNING BARGAIN for THIRTY QUIDS!!
4 pictures; Mitchell was well down on sellers but the buyers turned out in force to get hundreds of BARGAINS but what about the one lucky buyer who bought this jewellery wrap complete with contents. The sellers said 'its only costume jewellery there's NO GOLD in it' Wrong and wrong again at least 11 times; My estimate of the sell on value has got to be in the region of £800.00 upwards! Now then, the buyer and his wife Linda went to Carn Brea auction during the week and a hit and run driver smashed into the wife's van damaging…RUDE FRUIT & VEG; Part 2
8 good pictures; Let’s talk rude fruits & veg! My picture of ‘The Dick-tater’ got the imaginations going from some of our customers gossiping today as they searched for rude fruits and vegetables on Joey’s stall. He was a bit embarrassed by it all swearing he was not the model for the well hung Dicktater! If you want a real bargain go for his home grown Cauliflowers (only 65p and pulled up today) they are most definitely Cornish grown within 20 miles of Newquay and they are delicious, well they are when they get to this house? My lovely missus…
Newquay today!
A miserable sodding day with drizzle all the way from Truro only to arrive at the Circus Fields to find we have a FAIR taking up the front car park? As it happened we managed really well but this FAIR is with a difference, nice operators and the rides and sideshows seem to be much more modern than previous FAIRS! It start on Thursday and on the FRIDAY I shall be taking Rosie on all the rides to check if the hospital has done her operation proper! After she was released to go home and rest Marge and hot legs…A perfect day……..and then!!
We have never been so busy at any of our locations as we were at MITCHELL today with nearly 300 sellers and up to 4000 people including all the buyers and their children in the lovely warm sunshine buying and selling BARGAINS galore and believe me there were some stunning bargains that by now are probably listed on eBay. We had to turn up to 40 sellers away and we eventually ran out of buyer’s car parking which was due to irresponsible car parking on behalf of some of your fellow citizen drivers, I have taken the registration numbers of…JUMBLE SALE
hi geoff,hope im not to late but would like to advertise a jumble sale at bugle sunday school.starts 2,30 on friday 26th april,all welcome ,if im to late dont worry will catch u again.many thanksAn apology to a young lady of 8 years old;
During the school holidays a young lady of 8 years old came to the boot sale at Newquay and handed me a pencil picture she had drawn of the Car Boot Sale and I promised to put the picture on these pages. But......I have lost the picture or has someone stolen it? Her Mum told me on Tuesday the daughter has been looking for the picture on the website! OMG! Next, Mother tells me her little girls name and guess what I have forgotten it already and this little Madam will be furious. I am so sorry I have been…BARRED!!
On Monday the 15th I included my thought about a woman buyer who really turns the screws on sellers (particularly the aged or stallholders on their own) demanding that items for sale are reduced far below the asking prices, I asked for opinions about her tactics. At the Car Boot Sale at Newquay on Tuesday during the sale I was approached by several of our regulars whom I have known and respected for many years. I was totally unaware that this lady and her husband had caused so much discontent and controlled fury during our Car Boots at all locations…Saved by TRURO & salicious gossips and BECKS is back; 8 pictures;
What a rotten weekend with the heaviest of rains drenching all of our locations during the week you can see by the pictures of the rain sodden and puddles galore ground on the car park at FALMOUTH Rugby Club what the sellers and buyers had to contend with. However 37 sellers and a lot of support from locals and the Falmouth students bought loads of bargains and a great atmosphere but one complaint from a seller about the tactics of one buyer spoilt the atmosphere. I watched as the lady dealer held on to a really nice picture and a…DING DONG! 2 pictures;
Ding Dong the witch is dead? I think it is unfair to witches to call Mrs Thatcher a witch because when I first met Lou she was thumbing a lift so I stopped to pick her up. During our chat I asked her what she did for a living. She said “I am a Witch” I said ‘I don’t believe you’ she then put her hands on both of my knees and I turned into a lay-by and I have been a WITCH lover ever since! I spent from 1968 to the mid eighties in the North East of England…New Indoor Car Boot Sales at PORT ISAAC 2nd Saturday each month
