What a dreadful crap year it has been for our business with 59 Car boot Sales ‘rained off’ this year so look at the following notes for 2013 and please remember times changes!!

Proposed days and times DATES for 2013 to follow;

MONDAYS at LONG ROCK at 12.00 noon this is going to be a very popular weekly Car boot Sale which we are considering running twice weekly

TUESDAYS & THURSDAYS;

We are awaiting the new LANDLORDS who are KINGSLEY Village to advise us about out start dates at Newquay. Kingsley plan to build housing, hotel, car showrooms, supermarket etc but within their plans they have taken into consideration the popularity of our twice weekly Car Boot Sales. The vast plans spread over 100 plus acres and the developement will take several years to complete. It is planned to move us around over the years but Kingsley are aware of the 100,000 plus visits we get is good for us and their future business. Car Boots Cornwall have assured Kingsley of our co-operation in the future of The Circus Fields which will be renamed in time…..more to follow

Wednesdays;
We have lots of options with Wednesday this year and are minded of the huge amount of complaints we get from sellers who are too late at Rosudgeon and are looking for another venue to sell, in this respect we may even consider Long Rock? We are sorry that Padstow was not the success we had all hoped which was hampered by bad weather in its 3 years. Kim has done a great job and was most popular with the customers so hopefully she can be involved in the St Austell, Par Moor road site which we are going to seek PLANNING advice. We should be in St Austell as customers will remember our very successful car boots opposite Par Market!

Thursdays see Tuesdays;

FRIDAY at Falmouth Rugby Club (no LARGE vans) we are looking to change the time for 2013 are seeking opinions please;

Fridays we are in agreement with the owners of the site at Watergate Bay to run Car Boot Sales however further negotiations are needed to finalise this location.

SATURDAYS;
We appreciate it makes a very long day for sellers and buyers to attend our 3 locations so have adjusted the times which are set for 2013 all start dates to follow;

Saturday’s @ TRURO Cattle Market NEW START TIMES for 2013 will be at 9.00 am sellers Q from 7.00 am

Saturday’s @ MITCHELL start time remains at 1.00 pm sellers Q from 10.00 am (no LARGE vans)
Saturday’s @ Royal Cornwall Showground-Wadebridge NEW START TIME of 3.00 pm sellers Q from 1.00 pm

SUNDAYS at MABE No time change starts at 1.30 pm sellers from 10.00 am

SUNDAYS at LANHYDROCK we are changing the start time to 3.00 pm which is better for buyers and sellers, start date to follow however during the winter the Landlords will be preparing better drainage so this Car Boot Sale can commence as early as possible for 2013

We are in agreement with MONKEY TREE Holiday Park and hope to start Car Boot Sales once the weather improves so during the winter it would be fair to assume we would open on SUNDAYS at 9.00 am however we are undecided about which day we would run in the summer months. This is a great location it’s in the country and during the season the sellers have a packed holiday park of your customers on the doorstep! Just like HENDRA used to be during the good days!!
Lots to look forward to, all we need is for some decent weather my lovers!
Any complaints or suggestions see me!!
