Did you see us on the BBC news and quoted in papers as far away as Chicago?  A very random day led to us bumping into Boris Johnson and his ‘Battle Bus’. On our day off we were on an adventure to see if they were still filming for the BBC drama Taboo in Charlestown, we turned the corner and parked in a small lane was a big red bus…

Things are hotting up in Cornwall in more ways than one with stunning weather and a rather lovely famous actor filming in Charlestown.  This week we have been bathed in wall to wall sunshine.  Yesterday we were cooking in the garden late into the evening.

Hello! It has been a while since the last blog – we have been catching up on our holidays, visiting family, friends and loved ones we have not seen over the season and generally taking a bit of a break! In the last blog I promised you a season round up; it is always a nice thing to do reflecting on the highs and lows of the season.
