Hi Geoff
I spoke to you at the Mitchell car boot recently to let you know that I had been stolen from whilst selling the previous week.
I went for a look round at Mitchell on Saturday 19th May and saw the people that had stolen from me so I took a picture so that you can keep an eye on these people. They usually have a little girl with them as well.
Sorry not great pictures but you may recognise them.
If possible could I be kept anonymous, thank you!
Kind regards,
Mildred

It was only a bag one of my children was selling, like a small ruck sack pink and glitzy. I was asking £1.50 and they offered a £1 and I said it was worth £1.50 as never used. I was serving another customer and turned my back to put some money in the car and they had gone off with it. My children also said they walked off with it.
It’s ridiculous as was selling so cheap. It’s not the amount of money, it just annoys me. These women are at Truro and Mitchell on a weekly basis so I don’t want them to be stealing from other people. So please keep an eye open for these two women who stole from my children.
Thanks Mildred

The story so far; Mildred and her children sold at Mitchell Car Boot a couple of weeks ago and during the sale a large pair of ladies looked at the stall asking ‘how much cost dis child’s rucksack’ “It is new and we would like £1.50 said Mildred” ‘Take a pound’ says our large ladies “No,sorry we wont it is worth the £1.50 we are asking” therefore there was ‘no deal’
A few minutes after the large ladies left the stall Mildred (not completely on her guard) notices that the rucksack had been stolen from their stall and the only persons that could have taken it were the 2 large ladies who were obviously foreign by their description. These ladies have brought great disrespect to the communities of all of the ‘foreigners’ who have settled in the South West and I hasten to add “They are no real trouble, they seem very sociable amongst themselves, in my book they are a great asset to the local communities and they spend and barter well at my car boots so that’s good enough for me and my customers.
Now back to the two Large Ladies do you recognise them? I feel sorry for Mildred and her children but you were at fault by not concentrating on running your business by watching everybody from the moment they arrive at your stall.
Bottom line of this is that I have no hesitation than to BAR these two ladies for stealing from children who were raising pocket money by selling their unwanted items Despicable!!
Now then, I am always yacking on and bloody on about “Watch out there’s a thief about” so lets all learn a lesson and look after your selling area “Eyes on the PRIZE” FFS!!
