It's happening!

[flupskullion]

We are moving to cornwall on 24 th july! Renting for a month in penryn - have a dd 7 and ds9. Will aim to buy once school is fixed. Nervous, scared, excited all at once!!! Please remind me how lovely you all are and that Cornwall folk are uber friendly x

Yes it's lovely here -- but a little chilly today, sadly!

Where are you moving to?

Gah! Sorry I see you will be in Penryn. Make sure you keep all your mouldy bacon, drive out to the pandora inn one evening when the tide is in-ish, out-ish..... Give the kids crab lines (£5) from the pub or buy from .trago in Falmouth ... Sit back and enjoy the view, the entertainment that is crabbing and maybe a large white wine for yourself!

Best of luck OP, my youngest .ds is 9. No better place to raise children

OOh fab! welcome. I'm only up the road from Penryn. It really is the most wonderful place Yesterday, I went down to Grebe Beach near Durgan for an hours sunbathe and a packed lunch, I had the whole beach to myself and the dog . It really was Idyllic.

And yy to Pandora. I may have to go and do that one sunny evening before the emmets arrive.

is an emmett like a grockle? I grew up in Devon and called holiday makers that, or is it something even more odd?

Yep, the bleddy tourists!!
