My favourite time in Cornwall, Winter.

A choppy but not stormy Perranporth today, grey and windy, no not me, the weather,
maybe both.

Nice view, love the vibe with the grey sky and the waves.

I can never do it justice.

There is something about the people, the landscape and for me an overwhelming
feeling of being home.

The Cornish people are usually laid back, don’t expect a pace of life we experience
in towns and cities, you’ll get that in some tourist places but elsewhere everything
is done “Dreckly”.

Born and lived most of my life in the West Midlands/Worcestershire but spent
most summers holidaying in Cornwall.

I cannot explain the feeling, just feel like I’ve come home now I live here.

Only wish I could have moved sooner, I’m seriously looking for parts of the county
that others would say are a must, hopefully not all the usual tourist spots.

They don’t have to have lots to do, just stunning in their own right, views/experiences/people/food,
just something memorable.

Time is precious and I need to make the most of it, who knows, it might help
my health improve.

Well, a full English breakfast includes baked beans in tomato sauce for most.

Don’t forget The Watering Hole, a bar on the beach.

It is in the middle of the beach above high tide.

This photo also shows what I like to drink, Cornish Rattler, a cider ( Alcoholic
in U.K. not apple juice ).

The glass anyway, not so sure what’s in it in this photo, might just be the light.

That picture is obviously a fake: blue sky in the British Isles, yeah, pull the
other one

Awesome, we were there last summer.

I guess the Watering Hole wasn't open?

I wouldn't mind seeing some architecture from our motherland, that has some
actual history...

Nice views, but too many people on the beach! I prefer the Yorkshire and Northumberland
coasts Although even those get that busy this time of year.

Didn’t notice a single surfer, usually the place is swarming with them.

Mainly dog walkers this time of the year.
