Good to see that you are enjoying the countryside down here.  :D

It has been a bit overcast for the past few days in places. But on having a word with the chap upstairs, it has been arranged to turn the thermostat up a nadge!   8)

Did you sample the Cornish Carpark Crumpet then?? how come the bollards are still straight? you can't tell me you got through those with yer 44 tonner!! Bloody hell, the mozzies must be big down there, the windscreen splat is massive :shock:  :D  :D  :D  I was down that way couple of years back with some supplies for Boscastle after the floods but i had to leave them at a small company in Stratton, not far from Bude. I'm surprised they even let you drive down that way, the roads aren't big enough for matchbox cars, let alone trucks
