Lol Feck it was 30 years ago and i lived in Liskard on a site where the big Tesco's is now and the shop was sort of on the left as you went down to the sea front harbour as such, there was a funny fella who lived in a old railway hut and he was building a stone surround to it and when the outside was done his plans were to pull the inside down and whalla a house already built , he had a old jag with a Bedford 330 lorry engine in it.He was also a man who made crossbows and iv'e never seen anything like them since but he stopped producing them when fuckwits started shooting swans etc and it ended up in the newspapers,he was a real nice fella with some tallents and a man who i will try to find when i'm down that way...

dytkos 17,531 Posted July 31, 2022 Report Share Posted July 31, 2022 September is the best month in Cornwall imo, great weather, fabulous colours in the countryside and on the coast. Most of the families of holiday makers have f****d off and there's less manic activity in the pubs, on the beaches and on the roads. Pasties are usually the best from any local butchers, Ginsters are shite, as are Proper Cornish. Philps or Hamptons from Hayle are usually top notch, as are Portreath Bakery's or Barnecutts. It's jam first on scones before any of those Devonians tell you otherwise. Cheers, D. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Thats all a load of bollocks about Devon doing it one way and Cornish doing it another every man to his own. Barnecutts are really nice Pasties I will give you that as well.
