It is nice here, but I don't know any different.
If you like low wages, high house prices, high unemployment, teenage pregancy (and that is the older ones!), it is the place to be.
I was on my way to Falmouth today, and some prick wrote on the Falmouth sign "Welcome to Emmetsville".
It's wankers like that, that make me ashamed to be Cornish.
Being in a remote position, we are rather neglected in many ways, and one thing we do have going for us is tourism.
In my job I would say 90% of my years work comes in the summer, from tourism, and the rest of the year is dead, so where would I be without these 'emmets' they talk about?

Like pretty much anywhere else then really, except with nicer scenery.

I wish I had a proper camera again, I hate uploading crappy mobile pics........

Today I went for my usual mid-afternoon walk with the dog, along the banks of the Plym (middle pic). Despite her missing back leg, Pebbles usually jumps onto the back of the sofa (top pic, blurred - I was having a blonde moment Very Happy - to look out of the window to see if it is raining before deciding whether the word ‘walk’ is worthy getting excited about. Incidentally, Pebbles is most considerate, and gets on the back of the sofa so I can put her collar on without having to bend down (well, she is awfully small, and I am rather tall). However, she is not very happy with me right now, as she feels that it is unbecoming for a lady to venture into such strong wind (bottom pic) after she has had her hair done

You shoulda seen her when she was walking *into* the wind Very Happy That's about the only time she struggles a bit on 3 legs, when the wind is strong. Fortunately, she's small, so I can put her into my coat if things get too much for her (or it starts raining).

To anyone who read my post about RAF St Mawgan and big planes flying right over your head, here is a picture I forgot to post...

That is why I went there actually.
The picture doesn't do the situation much justice, but to put it perspective that plane is the same distance away as the white van, and the runway starts about 25 feet over the hedge from the van.
They were training pilots for the new Eurofighter all day and I had to go and watch , amazing!

My day has been spent looking after my little babies. The one at the back is very depressed (Georgie), the other one (Molly) is just her normal soppy self Smile



Tried to shrink the picture more but it just aint happening. Stu?

Today I did the usual (oh, woe is me, my days are so repetitive) - walking along the banks of the Plym earlier, it occurred to me - why would anyone want to buy this?
