Three Sundays on the go having to cancel once again Sunday April 12th
Porto Loos have been cleaned, main carparking area mown already to go the site is fine but alas rain forecast and being cold we wait to see if next Sunday 19th improves. Pendeen is to large an event to take the risk so a sensible decision has been made once again. 🤔

Record amount of donations for a Bank Holiday Monday for Stratton Hospital League of Friends £616.52 including a £20.00 donation from a seller Thanking me for last season so they could attend raising money for Wadebridge Foodbank. Thank you Jack & Jenny.x

Thanks go to Christine, John, Pat and Family to Michael, Cynthia and Di for standing or sitting in the wind to collect this remarkable amount.

HUGE THANKS to all that donate on entry from 1pm appreciating the sale.

Unfortunately, weatherwise it's not a great start this season for Sundays and likely to continue for a couple more but we will open for the second sale as soon as the forecasts are on side. Due to Pendeen's popularity we cannot open if rain is due around early afternoon for the fact of everyone wanting to leave the site at the same time. We try and prevent any chaos and need the sale to run as smooth as can be.

As we have so many Porto Loos now with nine in total, we do not want sellers coming back into the main carpark using that loo. PLEASE use the ones in the selling area and do not come out causing confusion with the early buyers when they enter.

THANK YOU ONCE AGAIN FOR THE CONTINUED SUPPORT AND ALL THE APPRECIATION THAT IS GIVEN AROUND THE SITE. x

Great start at last to the new season approx. 200 sellers for Bank Holiday Monday but the crowd of buyers from each of the three entrances. THANK YOU for such support and the number of early buyers wow. It was windy and seemed to get stronger as the afternoon progressed. So many happy faces and the appreciation in continuing but alas on Saturday 11th that special birthday so next Sunday as today I'm slowing down but THANKS to Team Pendeen with Karl Heard at the helm Pendeen ran as smooth as it should. Next sale weather permitting Sunday April 12th 🤔

Easter Sundays car boot sale is cancelled due to rain possibly whilst setting up? But Easter Monday looks to be pretty dry all day so we will open on Monday even with the wind. This is our early decision. 🤔

First cancellation of the season Sunday March 29th.

Hopefully not a surprise to the many as this week progressed rain was forecast for Sunday with Saturday being the dryer day. Can we open for the Easter Weekend? Both Sunday and Monday 5th & 6th April. Having cut the grass in the selling area this morning the site would have been fine to open as the nine Porto loos arrived. Other than putting up the flag poles Pendeen was ready to go ahead. But rain forecast Sunday with winds so another year when we are unable to open on the scheduled opening date.🥲

Sandra and I so loved seeing the dolphins off Dominica. We also saw some after leaving Tenerife on our way home whilst walking the deck three times for our mile walk but didn’t have a camera phone with us.

With the clocks altering hour less in bed we can adjust until next weekend.🙂

Sunday 29th March weather permitting Karl, Sandra and I plan to have the site ready to open the new season of sales at Pendeen.
Sandra and I have had a fabulous time cruising the Caribbean for four weeks and have come home this evening ready once more to put our energy into running these sales and committing ourselves to the end of September. Increasing the Porto Loos to nine to allow for the fine weather influx of folk when needed.
Thank you to all that wished us a well deserved holiday it was an experience never to be forgotten and we felt very special on board not knowing we had booked the Queens Grill for breakfast and dinner, the waiters and bosses of this establishment tried hard to encourage us to come to lunch as well but we declined as Sandra went to the gym and I to the swimming pool to keep the weight at bay lol. 😂

Twenty eight days on this ship in a fortnights time. With questions asking when we are opening its most likely that anyone asking during the time we are away no answer from us until we are home and at the desktop computer. Will update the mobile message but there again signal could cause a problem whilst at sea.
We hope to open the car boot sale on the 29th March weather permitting as so many now know we have extended Pendeen for one final season. Sandra and I are hoping to come back full of energy to commit ourselves. The volunteers remain as strict as before in insuring no one takes advantage of how successful Pendeen is organised and run and as soon as any wrong doing is reported we act pretty swiftly. As a family we hope we can say at the end of season that was well worth doing that once more to bring so much pleasure to so many and end Pendeen on a high. 🤔

THANKS TO PAUL for this image very clever.

Having visited my mum in Stratton Hospital yesterday 24th January. Karl visiting just before me it is so good to see that Stratton has such a wonderful facility as this. Having raised so much money for this hospital over the years and now a benefit for Mum to recuperate until being allowed home. On my own page, I have a video of Stratton Church, St. Andrews this was fascinating showing more than you realise when there. Again, so much money has been raised from our sales to help this church financially. We hear so much money being raised for other charities and causes in Bude, but Stratton has something very special, so if the weather is kind this season of car boot sales coming, we may be able to support them once again. Last year was a high and going to take some beating. Sandra and I go on our holiday soon and come back the Sunday before the opening. If the forecast is good, then for the 29th of March that week before will be so busy preparing on our own site to bring Pendeen back into action for another commitment from us in bringing you the largest and most generous weekly event in the Southwest.

Whilst away its unlikely we will be able to communicate on this F.B. page the four weeks in the Caribbean on Cunard's Queen Victoria so will update asap when home on the 22nd. Whether the weather is settled by then to open a decision hopefully forthcoming on the Friday 27th March 2026 TWO MONTHS to go hang in there Thanks again Paul’s Photography & Drone Media Group 🙂

It’s that time of year again with Autumn having been so very wet and now we go into Winter with Christmas on us soon. Then the New Year and before we know it The Pendeen Car Boot Sales will hopefully be up and running the last Sunday in March weather permitting. As other years hardly a day goes by without someone mentioning Pendeen to us.

Booters that have moved to this area recently are already inquiring after finding us on Google not knowing about this face book page. There are also those folk that have lived here since Pendeen started and never been and then there are those that travel miles even hours away just to attend what has been created in the Town of Stratton the biggest family weekly social event which is just so popular.

2025 would have been such a good year to end on a high and let new beginnings take over elsewhere but with the huge outcry and news headlines. As a family we are committing ourselves to the 2026 season to round off my thirty years being so involved and making it a pleasurable experience for the majority to attend whether a newbie or an established regular.

As a family we wish everyone that attends Pendeen no matter how many times.

A VERY HAPPY CHRISTMAS and we look forward to welcoming you back car booting for the season of 2026

Chris x Sandra x Karl x 🥳🎄🎁☃️
