Saturday 28th August;

What a lovely day with plenty of sunshine with some of our customers going topless (men only-shame) but decent opportunities to ‘top up that tan’ good temperature and breezes, well over 2400 men women and their kids came to enjoy the main Car Boot event of the week where NO SELLING-NO BUYING happens until the start time.

Who wouldn’t be other than totally impressed when arriving at the selling field on a Saturday at 12.00 noon at Mitchell with me to greet them? Remember this, if I wasn’t there then you certainly wouldn’t be there neither me ansums, would you? Our location at Mitchell is Trethvas Farm with spectacular views across the countryside, in the distance you will see the busy dual carriageway of the main A30 into and out of Cornwall. In front of you are up to 200 laden stalls heaving with ‘bargains galore’ knowing that you all have equal chance to buy the ‘bargain of the day’ once the horn blasts, happiness is!! They are off!!

But, there is always some moaning r/sole at every car boot sale who wants to have a bit more than a winge, the one who wants to try to spoil your day. Today I get a man who wants to drone on firstly by praising me for my NO DOGS policy at Mitchell then adding “You want to start banning these bloody pushchairs next, they are a bloody menace” ‘Yes sir, and so are you-you MOB, I bet you were a shit of a snotty nosed little brat as a kid! I am sure this man was the old fart person who made the same complaint to me a few years ago? Good god, are you still here man?
What a good idea though! Let’s do away with kid’s altogether shall we? Today’s kids are tomorrow’s customers and today’s kids are today’s best spenders at our Car Boot Sales via their parents of course.
Kids are smart they know at a very early age how to twist their mums around their little fingers and get that special treat off mum (dad pays) that’s why all kids are FREE to come to all of our Car Boot Sales and they are all very-very welcome providing of course that they behave themselves and do not take anything from Car Boot seller’s stalls which they do not pay for! We caught two boys stealing from our sellers stalls during the last ten days, one of the kids was also selling with his family and decided ‘let’s go and steal something’
Don’t do it cos if I catches you I will make you eat pig-snot and/or I will tells all of your school mates that you is a ‘tea-leaf’ do yer know wot I mean son? We eat kids that steal from our car booties normally see! You ‘shiserable mitts’ FFS!
