Surprised to see that there were hanging baskets and tubs, full of Geraniums in the latter. As a frustrated gardener, I envy the climate down here in the far west of Cornwall. Its easily at least 3-4 weeks ahead of the rest of the UK here, at least when it comes to the seasons. Things that would never survive the winter are just left out down here.
We then had a walk around Penzance. Willy and I are on a mission this week. We are trying to find a "proper" raised Pork Pie. They are as common as muck back in South Wales, but difficult to find here in the Far West !
We shall continue our hunt tomorrow in Hayle and St Ives !

I am famous as being less than fulsome of my praise of Jelberts over the years. Actually, we have the Best Ice Cream in Britain at home in Swansea ::

But I am more than willing to say that Jelberts comes a very close second in the perfect ice cream stakes ! I had a tub, with extra Clotted Cream, which may not please my diabetes Nurse, but who cares !
Fantaboulsa !

It was a cold wind in Yorkshire today but me and the OH had a busy day. He had used the last of his invoices and needed another invoice book, like now.today. We didn't want to go into town and we'd seen some in a shop we'd been in recently but couldn't remember which one. So we started out at B&m, Asda, Poundstretcher, Sainsbury's, Aldi, Tesco and finally Poundland where he found one 'It's only a pound' says he, 'the ones I buy in the Stationers in town are £7.50. Bargain!' I didn't mention that it cost me about £30 today buying something all those shops we visited not to mention the petrol we used.
a tasty Malbec is always good....as the Reagan ambassador said to a junior Beeb girl interviewing him when he was going home and in response to "Mr Ambassador, I can't but help notice that you have been chain smoking cigars during our interview - are they Cuban?" he responded, "Yes they are, Ma'am, the first principle of war is to burn the enemy's crops...."
