Beautiful Carbis Bay on Saturday - tropical Cornwall! #cornwall #vitaminsea

Sunset after midsummer bonfire at Castle an Dinas. Tansys Golowan.

Beautiful St Agnes last evening.#kernow

My wisteria in full bloom - every year I forget its beautiful fragrance. A flowery interlude as an antidote to the terrible local election results - have people lost their collective minds? #cornwall #blooms

Beautiful morning - early start poll clerking today. #cornwall

Great talk and walk yesterday at Minions looking at the Hurlers and Pipers standing stones. Thanks to Cornwall Heritage Trust for organising. #cornwall #prehistory #historiclandscapes #cornishheritage

Labrador buddies having a great time on the beach this afternoon. Sun, sand and vitamin sea. Beautiful Cornwall! Splann!

Staying with a chum for a few days and visited Chedworth Roman Villa - somewhere I have wanted to see for ages. Such an interesting site - and those mosaics!!! #romans

A Labrador in a rock pool - this soothes my soul in these troubled times and keeps me grounded.

Enjoying my Byline times - ordering a print edition was a great idea!

Duloe Stone Circle - beautiful spot - some of the stones have areas of rose quartz.

Chased the sunset to Bedruthan tonight - beautiful!!

At 6pm tonight please remember the bravery of the crew of @RNLI Penlee lifeboat - The Solomon Browne. "The greatest act of courage that I have ever seen, and am ever likely to see" rnli.org/about-us/our...

St Columb Major Church lit up tonight for Cornish Carols from the Washaway Gallery Choir hosted by St Columb Old Cornwall Society. The church looked lovely and there was a good crowd present to hear the music and singing. Splann!

A brisk walk on a blustery beach this morning- oh the joy of having the beach to ourselves- and the fog found a rock pool to swim in!

Since our ace hunting cat Arthur died at the grand age of 21, the garden has become full of birds! A lovely woodpecker visited the bird feeder this week.

On the one hand, I’m impressed that this is taken so seriously, fraud is fraud, no matter how big or small. On the other, had this been a Reform or Tory MP this would have been played as “teenage hijinks” or “it wasn’t even an iPhone” and turned into a weeks long defence of unacceptable behaviour.

Yep - this!

Today is White Ribbon Day which starts 16 days of action to end violence against women & girls which accounts for 20% of UK’s recorded crime 'Eight ways for men to alleviate women’s gender-based fear' @gemmagould.bsky.social centralbylines.co.uk/news/world/h...

I think I’m guilty of this ….

Just deactivated and then deleted the horrible X - and I feel so much better!!

With new figures showing that more than one in three children in the UK are now living in poverty, with deprivation hitting a record high, it's good to see the Times focusing on the people who are really struggling

Important context here: ● over half of farms are less than 49 acres (20 hectares) ● "a big farm" is 217 acres. Now let's see who's angry: ● Clarkson farm is 1,000 acres ● Lloyd Webber farms 4,000 acres ● Viscount Rothermere (Mail owner) 4,700 acres ● Dyson owns 36,000 acres

All quiet on the Teignmouth / Dawlish stretch of track this morning. Off to Exeter to meet one of my oldest friends on my day off.

Very early camellia out at The Lost Gardens of Heligan last week.
