FREE Publicity is better than NO publicity at all!
Just imagine if I had-had the lunacy and actually bought advertising space in the Cornish Guardian and then paid for the space of half of the FRONT PAGE and a third of page two they would have charged me up to £2000.00 for the publicity then add all of the other papers who ‘hook line and sinker’ fell for this same crap story so take into consideration their offensively high advertising charges I reckon I have had about £6000.00 of FREE advertising and I didn’t pay a sodding brass farthing FFS! Result or what!!
And they are still getting some of their wassucks letters to the editor wanting to carry on and on and on so G&FYFFS you BOWs. Tosspots with nothing to toss?
Any publicity is good and if it’s for FREE then it’s even better but from my experience of advertising in the most expensive Cornish local rags is to advise you to “Save your money and promote your own business” that is why Car Boots Cornwall is such a success because we have eliminated ALL press advertising costs with local papers because we cannot afford such extortionate rates and so the expense is just not justified! In any event we know we can rely on our satisfied customers because it is they who have promoted our Community Car Boot Sales by being there and supporting the best in the West.
Get a real job me bonnie lads or better still out with the men and in with the women journalists which could seriously increase circulation figures but of whom we know we can all rely on to tell the real news stories with truth honesty and integrity plus the usual 10% of exaggeration of course. Sexual discrimination? Yes, why ever not!

Wear something on your feet when you are in the sea in Cornwall the crabs here are fearsome little B’stards in our waters and they love the taste of tourists toes FFS!
Tourism;
Thousands of people from all over the country come to Cornwall for their summer holidays in the South West and thousands of them come to our ten Car Boots Cornwall Sales which is all part of their annual Cornwall holiday plan, lots of them loading up their cars to sell at our sales during their holidays. I have yet to hear anyone of them say “I have come on holiday to read the local papers” but here is a word of advice to you holidaymakers. If you buy yourself our lovely locally caught Cornish fish with chips whilst you are on your hols then make sure that they are not wrapped in either the Cornish Guardian nor the Newquay Voice nor the West Briton cos they are so full of shite they will turn your frigging fish and chips off, you will smell the fish and say to yourself ‘Cor blimey, is that me or the fish, what a bloody pong FFS! Nope, it’s the editorial staff of the Guardian dear of them.
Coming soon? Hopefully!
Now then my lovely readers this is where you must concentrate on the plot to oust CBC into oblivion, you will all know of the decision of Tretherras School to cancel a completed and signed ‘goodwill’ contract for the School to earn 40% of the takings from the Car Boot Sales held at their school during the summer holidays. The press aided and abetted by some short arsed Troll (who has turn-ups on his underpants) had brought to the attention of the school extracts of my blog and put pressure on the school to review the signed agreement.
Now then, the majority of Tretherras School Governors were most definitely for the ‘REMAIN in the EU’ crowd however after they had read my views about the abuse of disabled passes coupled with my views below on ‘getting us out of the EU’ it was then they decided to CANCEL the contract because of my most outspoken views supported by the absolute majority of our customers to LEAVE the EU!!
I object in the strongest terms to their thinking that I am not a suitable person to be involved with school activities because two years ago I had much stronger views in my blogs and yet the school were two faced enough to accept our money then FFS how dare they act as judge and jury on my rights for FREE SPEECH!
The ‘playground banter and bullying’ at Tretherras School and other schools is far worse than anything I have ever written in Geoff Says! Are Tretherras saying that all of their students in their School should not exercise and express themselves with FREE SPEECH, FFS? Do the parents know of this policy?
I further object to any insinuations that I am not a suitable person to be involved with either Tretherras or any other School. We started CBC in 1989 and over the years there are thousands upon thousands of school kids and their parents and families who have known me and my Community Car Boot Sales for years and years more, but I think it is a very sad reflection on Tretherras School that they deem me unsuitable for involvement in raising funds for Tretherras School all because of my views and FREE SPEECH either above or below this line.
“For the record since 1989 we, that is CBC and our Landlords and our buyers and sellers have raised thousands of £££s for various charities in Cornwall through our Car Boot Sales also ‘for the record’ at least 25 registered CHARITIES sell weekly at all of our locations for a 50% discount, many of those charities are for raising funds for the disabled. There are four very senior citizens who are given FREE to SELL stalls at any of our Car Boot Sales every week of their lives one of them ‘our Sheila’ aged 84 retiring soon having raised thousands for her special charity Friends of the Falmouth Hospice at our Car Boot Sales.
Brexit!
We won! We won! Ner-ner-nan-ner-ner! Up yours, see!!
