I love Cornwall, have been to Lizard Point and St. Ives several times. When the weather is good there are few places better. :)

Most of those are shot on my video camera stills mode, but some of those contain 7 or 8 frames merged together

From the photos posted above by I recognise Helford, Durgan, Swanpool and Maenporth. Great area.

No Swanpool

My mum, and my gran were born in Durgan, my grans dad and grandfather were gardeners (including head gardener for Glendurgan)

Beach photo - same girl in twice - stitched together.

I expect a few members will remember the small noisy boys (who drunk all the coke at Newent 2007)

Believe me we need the quiet in the winter. It's manic in the summer and our roads were designed for cart horses not thousands of cars. Trying to get around in the summer is a nightmare

When I was a kid I remember a train that used to start from Paddington had a couple of stops and finished in Penzance (can't actually go any further). Not unusual you might think but this train was a bit like the Euro tunnel. You drove your car onto it in London and wherever and went into the normal carriage to relax. Arrive in Panzance, drive your car off and away you go for your hols. The car platform is still there in Penzance station
