A local lad David Thomas kindly posted a reply to my earlier posting concerning an article about Penzance being “the end of the line”. I have read the article and I don’t think it’s particularly helpful or accurate. The article was written by someone living somewhere other than Cornwall. Now I am not suggesting I am a local as I have only been here 17 years but I think I know a bit more about our locality than Beth Woodbridge. Take a read of her article and see what you think:

And lastly (nearly) another entry from Cornishman. This time from their letters page:
And finally (yes definitely finally this time!) . . . . . . .. .
Last week a car crashed into a shop window in Penzance. Some kind of protest?
