Hello me Duuks, Thank you for your contribution to Facebook reaction about the various dog incidents at Newquay Circus Fields last Tuesday. We have had tremendous support for our stance on NO DOGS allowed at some of our Car Boot Sales however our team has never had such abuse to deal with from some members of the public including some total dick-head from Scotland who did not have a dog but a foul breath instead and he was just poking his nose into something that was none of his business (typical Scot FFS) and there was no doubt about his threatening behaviour towards Tamii shouting into her face uttering Scottish garbage and putting Tamii in fear.
I actually thought that he was going to head butt her and so did Tamii, if he had picked on our Kirstie there might have been need for an ambulance which I would have directed on a one way ticket back to Scotland, returned, one Scottish arsehole FFS!

Lou had been on the gate with us and some woman ranted on in a most irrational attitude that she could NOT leave her stupid looking dog in her car whilst she looks around the boot sale! What could be simpler? And why be rude to my wife because like some adult spoilt brat you can’t get your own way and its stamp your feet time! Hold that ambulance, I have another patient for the ignorant Bitch department of mental disorders FFS! Anyway Lou took herself away from the firing line (no balls) but Tamii and Amelia and yours truly took the continuous insults.

Have you read about the way protesters are being dealt with by the police firing water hoses but the big difference is that the water has added to it a foul smelling stench that lasts for days and pigging days and they are calling it Skunk Cannon and it stinks like f*ck FFS. It make you wanna retch and barf up yer guts and it puts you off yer food (good way to diet) So all dog owners who let their dogs crap at my boot sales we will take a DNA test from the dumped poo which will lead us to your house and then we’re gonna hose your house and garden down with this Skunk stuff then we’re gonna eff off see, FFS!

For people who don’t know Stephanie (the first time I knew her name) her is the love of all loves and her loves her Car Boot Sales and so do her lovely family they are always ‘so happy on life’ I don’t know what they’re on but I want some. They all answer to Me Duuks and it’s such a pleasure to have them in our Community Car Boots because they create happiness and are so polite to everyone, they are all lovely and I love em all, me Duuks!

The bloody BBC got their forecasting so wrong today claiming we were going to have heavy rains more or less all day. The TRURO day was planned over a year cancelled their event as a precaution and Hayle Car Boot Sale cancelled to protects their playing fields losing vital monies for the club.

Why TF the BBC don’t shut TFU if they do not know what they are talking about. Their ill informed forecast affected thousands of people in Cornwall and hundreds of sellers who lost the opportunity to sell. We ran all three of our Car Boot Sales as a gesture of GOODWILL to our customers but huge opportunities were lost because of the misinformation and stupidity of the alleged weather forecasting from BBC the nerds that they are!!

As a visitor to Cornwall I found your web site offering conflicting information We intend to visit the Wadebridge car boot sale but reading your heading stop press we were disappointed that we could not attend.
It is only by accident that we continued to scroll down to find than the ban on dogs was only for certain sites please state this in your stop press AS for dog owners not picking up after I find this deplorable ,we have a small Yorkshire terrier and we always have bags with us to pick up the dogs mess. The children are another thing. After bringing up 4 children I can tell you that I would prefer to have my dog that put up with screaming children who were often without asking want to pat the dog.

Geoff Says;

Excuse us for not dealing with your dog problems, we are running CAR BOOT SALES which is a priority to the majority of our COMMUNITY CAR BOOT SALES customers, we are not running a ruddy DOG SHOW!!
Respectfully you should have read all the website before criticising SIR!!
You seem to want a lot of information for the 50 pence we charge customers! And, respectfully you may not like screaming kids but they are more important than a scrawny Yorkshire Terrier which has probably never seen Yorkshire?

Attitudes like yours will assist us in a decision to BAN dogs all together particularly as DOGS are more important than kids! I don’t think so Mr Lay!! Blow up your pants FFS!

During the winter months I am wanting to be at Truro Cattle Market on Saturdays and Sundays so when we get to the end of the Penryn Rugby Club season Truro will change back to a 1.30 pm start.
What time would you suggest is the right time for Saturdays at TRURO Cattle Market? Your opinion matters. Thank you, Geoff

September 8th Newquay Car Boot Sale;
Yesterday was the worst possible gathering of idiotic people who allowed their mental systems and sudden attacks of the verbal shits to go out of control all because of our ruling that in the selling area at NEWQUAY CIRCUS FIELDS we had introduced a NO DOGS ALLOWED ruling in the SELLING AREA. This ruling is as a result of dogs crapping in the selling lanes and loathsome owners not having the decency to clean up after their fouling animal. Another reason for NO DOGS ALLOWED is young children, the amount of times we hear young kids screaming because they are frightened of strange dogs being in such close proximity to them. Our Car Boots are Community events for the people and the absolute majority approve of the decision. Amen!

Simple, the dogs could be exercised in the FREE Car Park but not in the actual Car Boot Sale for Public Health & Safety reasons.
So many people went over the top completely with the grossly offensive verbal abuse and threats of violence towards our team members and myself and so much of it was recorded by our security system.

Photographs were taken of one particular 35 year old woman who was ranting and raging all because she could not bring her dog into the Car Boot, she verbally and publicly and offensively attacked me and Tamii for over an hour and I warned her that we would take her picture which she ignored, but to resort to screaming at me “You are a Paedophile” all because of her pigging dog was outrageously offensive.
Sometime later Harrison one of team members came to tell me that the woman’s husband had told him ‘that if I didn’t go to speak with him he would come and beat the fucking shit out of me’ Next thing he is in my face demanding the picture that I had taken of his wife. I told him ‘I have taken no picture’ which was true but one of our team took the picture and our Car Camera recorded his confrontation with me.

Now then, I want a full apology from both the wife and her offensive ‘Paedophile jibe’ and from him an apology for threatening physical violence to ‘beat the shit out of me’ all witnessed by members of the public and our team otherwise I reserve the right to publish the pictures with witness statements. I am deeply offended that a woman should have to resort to such dearth tactics with such a spiteful and poisonous accusation.

The vehicle was a black Range Rover registration number withheld whilst waiting for that apology to be sent to we are also informing the Police of this incident.

I bought Zelda for £70.00 at Newquay Circus Fields a few years ago and my mate Nigel repaired her broken bits and painted her gold and she stays in my office right opposite my desk. I adore her, she is woman without the womanly bad habit of talking all the time FFS!!

And it’s a ‘no I haven’t bonked her’ for those suspicious minded lot but I do give her a cuddle one in a while cos she is fantastic for company for the reclusive old B’stard I am becoming and it’s only come over me since her parents arrived FFS!!

Hello Ian,

Thank you for your email and comments. Most sellers do not like selling in the Cattle pens and the buyers like it even less, what we need is a huge hanger without obstructions for when the Cornish weather is doing its regular habit this year by raining almost every pissing sodden Sunday.

Hi Geoff,

I attended your car boot sale on the 23rd August and thought that you might be interested in my experiences.

I arrived at about 11.20am and spoke to a very helpfull lady on the gate (your wife I believe) who explained that it should be quite busy as all of the other car boot sales in the area had been cancelled due to the weather.

I duly took my place in the queue not far from the gate and then engaged in the interesting pursuits of observation and earwigging. The people in the queue were quite interesting and included;

* holiday makers from Burnley and Manchester who were discussing what car boots they has been to in the previous week and what they were like.
* a couple of Eastern European men
* 2 men who looked like twins, or certainly brothers, with designer stubble, shades, and rucksacks on their backs
* Madge – I am sure that you have mentioned her before as one of your regulars. I only knew who she was because someone called out to her.
* a lady on a disability scooter

Interestingly, the queue didn’t reflect the ethnic mix of customers that we get ‘up country’.

Whilst in the queue I had noticed the stall with the 50p sign and thought that I would head for that when the car boot opened.

The horn duly sounded and I witnessed a mad sprint into the car boot. The car boot was okay but it certainly wasn’t worth sprinting for. I joined in though and dashed to the 50p stall. Alas, there was nothing there for me.

The car boot was a mix of traders and genuine car booters and was an interesting experience. Most of the traders wouldn’t budge on their prices but it still does no harm to ask. One of them had CD’s priced at £2.00 each but was willing to sell me 10 for £10. Another trader had their vinyl and CD’s priced but pretty much nothing else. This resulted in an interesting conversation with a customer. The trader had some small bags of LEGO and the customer asked how much they were. The trader replied £4.00 each to which the cutomer replied, ‘You must be joking’. He replied no they are £4.00 each and I have already sold some. If the trader had priced the Lego the customer could have made an offer or just walked past the stall.

There were some lovely sellers who were happy to accept reasonable offers or to engage in a good game of bartering.

Several sellers could have made more money if they had just spent a bit more time presenting their stall a bit better ie CD’s and DVD’s being offered for sale on their stalls but back to front. I haven’t mastered reading titles back to front and so am sure that they will have lost sales. When I mentioned this many commented on the lack of time they got to set up their stalls, particularly those in the cow sheds who had to carry all of their sale items and tables from their cars into the cow sheds. One seller had clearly spent a lot of time putting all of his CD’s in alphabetical order, 2/3 boxes worth but then positioned the boxes back to front.

The easiest stalls to navigate were those who had priced all of their items. You could then either pay the asking price, make an offer or just walk on to the next stall.

After my initial walk around the car boot I went to the cafe for a coffe and something to eat. The coffee ordering was easy but not the rock cake. I was asked if I wanted an x or y. I can’t remember what the names were but had never heard of either of these. As I was hungry I choose one of them and it was fine. I then went back to the car boot but was surprised to see a number of the outdoor sellers had either left or were about to leave. Madness really as there was still good business to be done, particularly where sellers were willing to compromise a bit on the prices to get some late sales.

It was a very interesting and enjoyable afternoon so many thanks to all those that made it possible.

Kind regards

Ian ( from Coventry)

PS I managed to loose my black jumper which I had tied around my waist as it got a bit warm that afternoon. I don’t suppose that anyone found it and handed it in to you.

Ps. We found your sweater and sold it (not true) and by the way some sellers do go at any time they wish, it’s normally the lady wives who have to get back home to get ‘his tea ready’ when he comes home from the Pub, just like in the North East.

Here are just a few comment left on Car Boots Cornwall-FACEBOOK pages following our announcement that our policy is that NO DOGS will be allowed in the selling area. Respectfully if you do not agree with this policy then BAR yourself from our Car Boot sales the additional revenue of 50p and people with large dogs is not worth upsetting the majority of people who say NO DOGS!!

I am now asking ALL customers to advise all and sundry of this new ruling! NO DOGS IN THE SELLING AREAS!! Exercise them and leave them in the CAR PARKS PLEASE with your WINDOWS open to allow your dog’s fresh air.

Teresa Rumsby; More dogs will now be left in hot cars when people on holiday with their dogs want to go to car boot sales

Car Boots Cornwall; If we see any people with dogs in cars they may be asked to leave! It’s very dangerous for them to be left on hot days and hopefully dog owners will realize this and not do it! Tamii.

Sandie Taylor; about time to people are so inconsiderate with leaving their dog poo around it not fair on car boot Cornwall to clean their mess up.

Thank you for your support and we are sorry for dog owners who abide by the rules of cleaning up after their dogs have crapped in the selling fields, the public are sick and tired of those owners who have spoilt the pleasures of responsible owners. There is always our Car Boot Sale I call POOLAND at PAR MARKET on Thursdays at 9.00 am.
Note; PAR MARKET is open on WEDNESDAY and WEEKENDS all year round and is the BEST Market for value with a huge variety of stalls. It’s the best in the South West but you cannot take your dogs inside the Market. Full FREE parking and POOLAND facilities my lovers!

Thank you Geoff you are my hero this week for removing the abuse of dogs that the so called dog lovers have inflicted all these years. The car boot on Thursday was brilliant without most people tripping over the poor dogs and all the growling of the dog owners for the innocent buyers trying to browse the tables for a bargain getting wrapped up with the dog leads and treading on tiny dogs. It’s not a case of the owners trying to get their dogs used to being around crowds and all that rubbish cus they could go to the city to do that because all the buyers are interested in is to get to each stall to look at the bargains so obviously we are not wanting to have to weave in and out of dogs and dog leads and winging dog owners. Please keep them away at all your venues cus what a massive difference it has made. Chris

Alton Towers founder John Broome intends to turn a Cornwall theme park into a “premier European resort”.
It has been confirmed Mr Broome has bought Cornwall’s Crealy Great Adventure Park, near Wadebridge, and nearly 200 acres of adjoining farmland.

The Camel Creek Resort project includes up to 236 holiday villas, courtyard properties, tree houses, a pool, spa, restaurant, pub and convention centre.
The plans are due to go before Cornwall Council next month.
A spokesperson for Mr Broome, John Williams, said the development would see the current theme park updated but it would not resemble Alton Towers and there would be no large new rides.
He said it would create at least 950 new full-time jobs and construction could start in the New Year.

Local discounts;
He added the plans include a tropical lake, the largest in Britain, and admission to the resort will be free to local people within a one kilometre radius, while a discount would be offered to other people living nearby.

The park currently contains a range of family rides, attractions and animals including meerkats, horses, caiman and snakes.

Geoff Says;
Car Boot customers will know we have been promoting Crealy for most of this season. The personnel who have been to our locations with leaflets and advertising materials have represented Crealy well and are looking forward to the changes.

What a fantastic boost this New Adventure Park will be for our fun loving tourists and what a wonderful gesture to give locals who live within one kilometre FREE ADMISSION!! Good luck to the planned Premier European Resort which will be fabulous for CORNWALL and its tourism industry! Welcome.
Ps; What a wake-up call for Flambards dear of them living in bygone years!
Proper job!

Geoff
