I LOVE YOU x

When was the last time you told someone ‘I love you’ and when was the last time someone told you ‘I love you’?

Lots of our older married customers do not say ILY they just take it all for granted!
Nothing is nicer in the WHOLE world than for some one to say I LOVE YOU!!

I say it to myself every day I look in the mirror!

Hey Lou ‘I love you’…ish.

Xx
Update. Its catching on this I LOVE YOU theme and Tuesday at Newquay love flowed. Kim & Leslie called me darling Daryl, Kelly and mum to be Michelle told me they love me! That is so sweet! But Marge never said a word!!

Love you Marge, Gladice, Kim, Posh Pat & Pat, Patsy, Paddy, Patrick and my first wife (god bless her) and Dennis who assured me he loved Laura to bits, but I did’nt get the same enthusiasm from dear Laura.

Nice to have you back Dennis-I think.

BAD MANNERS at MABE!

Regulars will know that we have a good team that work with us on the Car Boot Sales most of them young students and they are good at their job.
Today some idiot in a BMW argued with one of our collectors then came to me to complain about
‘stupid bitches’ at the gate! I dont employ stupid bitches my team are decent people who are liked and respected by the majority!
Then some looney drove his car into the shins of one on our student male parkers and was BARRED immediately.
Respect to all of our team and customers please!

Thank you,

Geoff

Saturdays Gossip!

The sweetie man is back but we cant find Bubbles to tell her. Just for a bit of harmless fun when they both do a Car Boot on the same day it would be nice to put them as neighbours again!

‘Got any Jewelry Luv’ was picked on today when I said it was time we found a maid to share his love and life!
My mate Marge said ‘Better off to get a dog they are more loyal and they dont answer back’

I think Mildred has a soft spot for him and wants to get involved in giving him a makeover!
She say she want to do the ‘final’ touches for him! You what!
Any offers!

The Rumanians are here and dont you love em! Two arrived in a large van and paid their 40p admission, when they parked up another 7 got out of the back of the vehicle!
They are brilliant spenders and spleak very good English but if they do that again I shall put it around they are all GAY!
Love you Ruumies!

BUCKING BRONCO!!

Weeks ago a man phoned to say he had bought a Bucking Bronco to bring to our Car Boot Sales.

He had invested £14,000 on the BRONCO without asking if he could bring it to the Car Boot Sales!
He has now lost complete interest in the idea and wants to sell the unused BRONCO for NINE GRAND!
In todays climate he’ll be lucky to get £5000.00

If you have an idea for the Car Boot Sales dont invest until you have asked permission to be able to trade with your latest ‘venture’

I thought Marg looked the picture of good health for her age today ‘must be the red wine’ commented Mildred!

LOST LIGHTER!

Hello Lisa,

Sorry that your lighter has not been found at MABE and it is unlikely that it would be handed in at this time.

You have well advertised the loss and I will ask out team to keep an eye to look for the lighter and we can fully appreciate its sentimental value.

Regards,

Geoff & Louise

MABE Sunday 8th May,
7.20 am I received a phone call to ask “How are the ground conditions after the bad weather yesterday before I decide if it is worth our while coming”
You WHAT!

However, the phones were non-stop and over 600 visits to our website proved people were unsure “if it’s on or off”
Whatever the weather it is our job to present the Car Boot Sales advertised it is obviously not possible to hold the sale in torrential rain.

Lou & I had a bet she said 7 rows of cars and I said 10 and who was right ME of course!

There was a shower of rain at 12.30pm and 5 sellers (chicken) left to queue to go home and unpack the car. Wrong decision!
The sun came out and everyone took good money and we saw some great bargains taken back to the cars.

Over 3000 men women & kids came out and joined into the Community spirit of our Car Boot and the Recycling was a credit to all. Yesterday I had an old moaner who said ‘it’s all crap in there’
I replied ‘I knew we had a CRAP expert amongst us somewhere’! Another Richard Head no doubt! See picture, dont show Marge!

But the heavy winds provided challenges for some of the sellers displaying stocks. It was great fun watching them assembling their flimsy tables in what they considered ‘storm conditions’
Mostly women are in charge and do a fantastic job in organising their stalls and getting the husband employed with ‘do it my way’ bossiness tactics! Quite right!!

If you want a car boot to be successful leave it to them! And, women are much better drivers as well!
That should help my popularity out with the blokes! Who cares!

A great weekend, thanks’ for sharing some of your life with our Community Car Boots Sales in CORNWALL.

What a B’stard of a weekend!

It started with Falmouth on FRIDAY where high winds and rain spoiled the day and a shower just after the Car Boot started did not help!

Saturday at TRURO Cattle Market was a non starter with only 12 sellers braving the elements. We have a ruling that we will not start a Car Boot without 20 sellers but I decided to let the 12 sellers SELL FOR FREE and the buyers would also not pay.
The deal…ONE HOUR ONLY!
What a success for the sellers who were mobbed for their bargains (respectfully) and not one seller had taken less than £60.00 the highest take was £180.00
Thank you to all the loyal buyers led by Marge and Mildred for your wonderful support.

Part 2 B’stard of a weekend!

Mitchell! Just like last week the forecast was heavy rain showers! I wish the BBC and their CRAP forecasts would realize how regulars like Audrey & Horace see the forecast then ring their friends and say “its going to PISS down at Mitchell today so its off” At 12.30 pm we let in the sellers and half-filled the selling area spreading them out, the wind blew stocks around but their were plenty of buyers who spent well simply because there were some stunning bargains! Lots of the buyers are genuine dealers who look for a bargain and sell it on either at another Car Boot or on eBay. Few moaners about the winds but it certainly was deserted by 4.20 pm On to Royal at WADEBRIDGE for the last Car Boot before the ROYAL CORNWALL SHOW! Read on part 3………….

B’stard weekend part 3……

Sunny but windy at Wadebridge and we had only 43 sellers but they all had BALLS! The forecast was heavy showers and good crowds of buyers opened the SALE at 5.00 pm

WADEBRIDGE is renowned for great bargains, good spenders, really nice people, good manners and showers!

They were all trading successfully until 6.15 when the heavens opened with a very cold shower and the field was deserted by 6.45pm
I spoke to some of the sellers who had traded ‘brilliantly’ and were rushing home to hot coffee and counting cash.

It is an honour having the Royal Cornwall Showground as one of our locations and wonderful working with such a professional management team.

Forecast for SUNDAY……More heavy showers!
Stand-by MABE!

Part 4………………..MABE
