In all of my working life I have been in the people business providing entertainment and leisure facilities for countless millions throughout this Country. From The Fairfield Halls in Croydon to BUTLINS at filey and Skegness and General Manager of PONTINS in Somerset and in 1989 I created CARBOOTSCORNWALL which today has 9 Car Boot Sales and over 350,000 visits each year to our locations. Louise does not share my ambition and drive to make our business into a bigger group and would be happier with only 4 weekly events. She says ‘You are the Boss’ and together we have built your favourite COMMUNITY Car Boot Sales widely spoken of in the entire South West. All of the business decisions regarding how we operate our event are entirely at my discretion, my great teams happily work with me to provide a safe Environment for our Community Car Boot Sales and for all of our visitors. The buck stops with me!

On Saturday at Mitchell there was an incident concerning a dog in a car when an off duty part-time BBC ‘I am a journalist’ decided to poke his nose into the matter which had been reported to me earlier. Despite telling this man I would not call the emergency services because by the time they came the dog and driver would have GONE! Later With only 15 vehicles left in the field a RSPCA Inspector arrived! Dog & driver gone! The following morning at 8.30 am I receive phone call from the journalist saying he had sent me an email. I refused to discuss the matter. The email arrived in my junk mail with a virus warning so I returned it with a ‘do not contact me again’!
I am the BOSS and I make my own decisions at each Car Boot Sale and I do not need any journalist from the BBC poking his nose into any decisions I make in the day to day running of the most successful COMMUNITY EVENTS in the South West CARBOOTSCORNWALL!
M Y O B!
