Gossips and realities and the very latest!
We are sorry to advise that on SATURDAY it will be the last Car Boot Sales at Trethvas Farm held on Saturday 29th April at 12.00 noon at Mitchell.
However the Car Boots will move back across the road to the original location of Saturday sales. This means we will have two sales a week at ‘The Old Mitchell’ Thursday’s and Saturdays both at 12.00 noon. Landlord David Leggo has done a superb job presenting his fields for our Car Boot Sales to a very high standard and has promised to provide a further field for parking and dog walks!
The admission price on THURSDAYS is 50 p per adult. Kids FREE!
The admission price on Saturdays is £1.00 per person. Kids FREE!
The Landlords policy at Mitchell of BANNING dogs completely has given us problems which have affected our business not only at Mitchell but at all locations resulting in a decline in business with many regular dog owners not coming to our sales.
We have had several conversations with the Landlords of Mitchell asking them to lift their ban they have steadfastly refused so I have decided to move our business back to the Old Mitchell. We have respected the Landlords position, we are all grown-ups we have not fallen out we just ‘beg to differ’ on ‘Dogs being allowed at Car Boot Sales’
Buyer’s dogs WILL be allowed at all locations however they will not be allowed in the selling areas (nor in the Cattle pens at TRURO) and must be restricted to the car park walks.
On evidence of ‘poo bags’ sellers will be allowed to bring their dogs but the dogs must be under total control restricted to the car or the space outside the car with collar and lead attached securely. Owners of barking or yapping dogs will be asked to leave the Car Boot Sales.
This SUNDAY will be our last Car Boot Sale at TRURO for the winter season. There has been serious traffic hold-ups and delays recently caused by the new set of traffic lights outside The Cattle Market.
The BANK HOLIDAY Car Boot Sales will be held at Truro at 1.30 pm
The admission price for this week is 50 pence per adult which will rise to £1.00 parking and admission charge.
We are moving to our new summer location at St Columb Major which is a vast 20 plus acre ‘out in the country’ field on the A39 at Trekenning Farm, Newquay postcode TR8 4JA (near Mole Valley) This location will be easier to reach from other car boots and Hayle Rugby Club for sellers and buyers want to do two Car Boots in one day however I predict “in time this location will be another MABE”
Huge challenges here for those of you who need to get some exercise and walk with the dog with a nice country walk around the perimeter of this field you will be knackered but healthier!
The admission price at St Column is £1.00 per person!
PENRYN Car Boot Sales will start on SUNDAY the 7th of MAY at the new time of 8.00 am Sellers arrive at 7.00 am set-up time 7.30 am Penryn Motor Auctions used to have brilliant Car Boot Sales going back several years Lou and I used to sell there great atmosphere and the locals used to really support it and the 8.00 am start time was ideal for the early risers on a Sunday. Personally, I would prefer to have the ‘early rise’ then get up and go to the car boot like!!
The admission price at PENRYN is 50 p per person.
“Mahwhilly” My Chiwawa dog arrives today and I am so excited about its arrival. Lou thinks that Nana Moon will eat it, Nana Moon will not eat it all the time she has a muzzle on her gob says Geoff. Anyway now we don’t have a dog ban I can now show my new boy dog Mahwhilly in public so if you want to come along and stroke Mahwhilly at any time feel free ladies then purr haps you can bring your cat then can I stroke your pussy! (This idea was seriously put to me by one of my adoring female fans) dear of her.
Sorry about the increases our rents and operational costs have gone up considerably.
Geoff
