WHO CARES?
Wednesday 22nd May 2013
After a busy weekend particularly at Mitchell and Mabe with almost 8000 people at the two events and a few complaints about lack of parking space at Mitchell which will be resolved this weekend with an additional 240 car parking spaces in another field behind Truro Tractors.
Today at Newquay was extremely cold and 60 sellers took quick money and the sale was all over in two hours but I was shown some good bargains and I heard of one stall who took £180.00 not bad money for getting rid of your unwanted items? During a conversation with several of our sellers someone said “Oh Geoff your ears should have been burning on Sunday they (all men) were calling you worse than muck at Withiel, someone told them “Why don’t you say it all to his face” my attitude “Where’s Withiel”?
Anyway for the record their gripe is that I have brought respectability to the Community Car Boot Sales and stopped our customers getting ‘ripped off’ with fake gear by rogue traders also they are pissed off because I have stopped buyers going into car boots further they do not approve that all traders with large white (any colour-no colour bar at CBC) vans should have a Public Liability Insurance to trade. Last year our teams organised almost 300 Car Boot Sales with over 400,000 visits of men women and their kids at our Community events. Our website gets over 5000 visits in a week and the majority of my customers think I am a good bloke and I agree with them. So, I will go with the majority 98% approval rating! Hah!!
And, and by the way 14,000 (FORTEEN THOUSAND) sellers sold at our Car Boot Sales last year and CBC raised over £8000.00 in rents for charities not to mention the near 500 stalls from registered charities who sold at half price rents! And if that is not enough evidence of the popularity of Car Boots Cornwall take a look over this weekend with FRIDAY at Falmouth Saturday at TRURO & Mitchell then Sunday at MABE and Lanhydrock on Sunday then Bank Holiday Monday at Newquay then Bank Holiday Monday at Truro where over those sales we are targeting 17,000 visitors! Why does everybody call me BIGHEAD because I am my lovers! Now I have nothing against Withiel (it will be nice for them when they get electricity) but I think to make myself even more unpopular I would suggest to the bosses at WITHIEL Car Boot Sales they should start charging 50 pence admission or better still sell me the business?
Ps; Alternatively the knockers could always try to run a Car Boot Sale for themselves, get off your fat bums and see just how easy it is, many have tried and FAILED so it’s now your turn motor mouths GO FOR IT!
The bottom line about us (that’s Lou and me and our teams) is that we give 100% loyalty to working for the betterment of our Car Boot Community Sales created by Louise and myself and we are proud of our reputation over 24 years! To our multi thousands of fans WLY and to our critics who GAFF?
Love you WITHIEL.
