hi geoff and lou, can u please find a site to do a carboot sale down west on a sunday morning? After ANOTHER wasted journey down to hayle this morning,seeing poor young mums crying out of frustration over all their wasted time (not to mention the petrol!) i just wondered if there was anything you could do? There must have been 100's of people turned away this morning,for no apparent reason, and i am not the only one who feels Hayle RFC do not deserve to run such a successful event! The amount of money they must make, you think…LONG ROCK email!

Recently I have had complaints about bullying at our Car Boot Sales by the absolute minority of buyers hoping to push or barge someone off stalls in an effort to GRAB A BARGAIN or to get there first! We have spent almost 25 years building up a good reputation at our Car Boot Sales and I will not tolerate BULLYING and I will not hesitate to BAR offenders! Be warned I will act immediately to prevent further complaints! OFFENDERS PLEASE NOTE!! Geoff Camden Wiles Joint proprietor of CARBOOTSCORNWALLRound up of news and gossips
FRIDAY 28th September Dear Marge, It is a shame that Falmouth Rugby Club has lost is popularity like in the old days one of the reasons being that the areas allowed for us to sell are in a deplorably dangerous condition with heavy stones pebbles galore and on dry days the dust that gets on our sellers stock makes for hard work meaning packing up the car and going home to wash all your unsold items! On the plus side the locals have supported Car Boot Sales here for over 25 years and the 40 odd sellers on Friday traded…Last SUNDAY all CAR BOOT SALES Cancelled due to weather!
Our regulars know whenever it is raining at MABE we transfer the business to TRURO but thing were so bad last Sunday that all Car Boot Sales in the South West were cancelled due to the inclement weather (which means it was pissing down)but 9 very brave potential sellers were given vouchers for another day and happily drove off. Heading the Q was Mr Fook Off and his potential son in law (they cannot agree the dowry)who had tried to sell at Hayle, St Austell, Carn Brea and MABE before arriving at TRURO only to be told to Fook Off!…DO NOT SAY YOU HAVE NOT BEEN WARNED!! FAKE £10.00 notes!!
More of these FAKE £10.00 notes have been passed to shops and stores during this week, we want to prevent any more being given to our customers! Tell your friends and mobile the serial numbers ending with 1934........Geoff XTodays email! Its nice to get the occasional compliments-thanks Paul!
An email from my new friend Paul; 23 September 2012 09:59:57 To: [email protected] The following message has been sent via the website: Name: Paul Email: [email protected] Subject: Praise Message: With my wife due in December we decided to have a clear out and sell some items to make room for the mass amounts of baby kit needed very soon. So we pitched up at the Mitchell car boot on sat 22nd sept. which I must say was extremely well organised and a great boot to be part of. During the afternoon my wife noticed the pitch next door had amongst…Friday at Falmouth Rugby Club!
Probably the worst grounds to hold a Car Boot Sale and complaints galore 'why cant we be on the grass?' The answer lies with the club's groundsman who is under the impression we would ruin the hallowed turf, sellers will remember the early years when we were allowed weekly to use the grassed areas and did no harm to the grounds! Times and Committee's change but the decline in our business at Falmouth speaks volumes with sellers preferring to go to our other locations! Picture 1. Willy Slippers! 'The amount of people who have picked them up had a good…What is your opinion about MONKEY TREE Car Boot Sales for the winter?
Good day at Newquay yesterday with slighly fewer buyers and sellers but still they reported good sales one stall SELLING EVERYTHING and going home one hour later £270.00 the richer. Sorry only one picture of Marge the fee was too high but she did buy a nice gold bracelet for Basil's ankle to compliment the toe ring she says, actually she is going to make a nice little profit when she sells it on, you can see her stall at the Hall for Cornwall fleamarkets held weekly. Such a shame they cannot sell inside this venue like the old days…Page 75 of 109
