Have hire one though mate, unless you want to spend £££s shipping it over first on the Gri Maritha 

Cheers, D.

Really? You can't just take your own tent on the ferry? Or do you mean kayak?

I've been looking at transport and the ferry is £65 each way from Penzance, but no vehicles allowed, which is a bit shit tbh. Still looking into it though.

Kayak, take your tent, rucksack etc but not shipping for kayaks unless you use the steamship services (Gri)

I see what you mean mate. It was wasn't too dry to be honest but it was the pastry that let it down. I prefer pastry when it looks a bit pale and is still a tad doughy deep into the crust. Non of that flaky bollocks for me. 

I would have still eaten that pasty if it had been burnt to f**k and dropped in dog shit mind... i was starving.

And a quick Google says Chapman's butchers best pasty in perranporth

[Bush Rummager 3,758]

Cheers fellas..

That butchers was closed today Borr.. I'll keep an eye open for it during the week mate.

I think we're having a ride out tomorrow and our Doris wants to call at Mevagissey so we'll be checking their offerings out. Had some good ones there over the years.

Probably one of the best I've had was from a butchers in Salcombe!! showing the Cornish how to do it!

Talking pasties eh on a Sunday night... what we like!! lol..
