Saturday 27th October;
Very cold weather first thing so I was delighted that we went ahead at TRURO at 10.00am with only 38 sellers but they were well supported by good buyers who bought great bargains. However the weather improved during the day with the sun breaking through to give a warm but cold breezes afternoon.

I am not being rude about the tourist but its nice when good old Cornwall has its end of season blues when they have all buggered off home and we are left with the riff-raff our locals-our regulars our COMMUNITY! It is amazing how gullible the men folk are as its the wives have got them so organised and I love people watching. Lads, they have got you exactly where they want you carry this and carry that do this and do that but seldom do you get asked to do the OTHER!!

Two old farts were standing near the entrance awaiting their next instructions whilst the lovely ladies were getting their weekly retail therapy so they started on me “Is this the last one of the season”? followed by “I dont know where the hell she is” which is like a red rag to a bull to me! Then the other blokie starts “I dont know what they see it all looks a pile crap to me” So now we have the first man who cannot abide his missus enjoying herself and an expert on CRAP!
When there wives come into view there faces change but Mr Crap did’nt get away with it cos as she off loaded the bags into his arms I said ‘according to your man he says you have just bought a pile of crap’ the look he gave me was priceless but the look she gave him “You wait till I get you home” BINGO! Gotcha, I am such a shit at times but he deserved it and his wife was lovely, I bet she could have done better for herself! ME for instance cos I am totally unappreciated!
Anyway, our Landlord of MITCHELL David Leggo has done a fantastic job with the grounds and is keen to carry on till the weather or ground condition worsen!
It was a lovely afternoon serious BARGAINS and Cornwall Car Boot Community at peace with itself for the winter period.
Thank you for your support and to the old farts!

I have to go now to do the ironing and hoovering because it get done properly when I do it!

Love you all-ish!

Loves,

Geoff
