Parking lights are probably on because you've turned them on with the indicator switch.
Boot light is a separate, common issue, which is usually solved by adjusting the catch properly.

its hard to explain with out looking at it, when the car is turned off the front right parking light is constantly on and the rear light is on.

i disconnected the battery too and changed the fuses again still the same problem?
