We're going to the seaside...

As I mentioned in my last post, Stu and I spent a couple of days in Cornwall last week and it was glorious... Absolutely beautiful and it confuses the life out of me why folk want to go abroad when we have such a dramatic and beautiful coastline here. Stu went for business purposes; he's recently formed a new company with my father that make articulated trucks and had to visit a customer on their landfill site. So, as he was going to have to travel all that way anyway, I decided to go too and we stayed overnight. We would have tried to stay for a little longer but Stu had to fly to France on the Friday... It was lovely even though it was rather short.

First stop was Padstow...

Then Stu went for his meeting... I decided not to take any pictures of the landfill site for some strange reason...

However, when he's finished we drove down the coast to St Ives and went for a walk along Porthminster Beach before having a cream tea at the Porthminster Cafe which is the white building you can see to the right of the beach. It was lovely although I did email them when I returned as they served French jam which I felt was ridiculous, especially when I saw the statement on their website about minimising food miles... Anyway...

On the way home, we stopped off at another beach and I can't remember for the life of me its name but it had to most wonderful rock pools!

And as you can see from this picture - we were both thoroughly enjoying ourselves...
