That's great, thanks very much for...Hi Stephen<br /><br />That's great, thanks very much for that - just the sort of thing I'm looking for. <br /><br />I'm sure lots of people will identify with messing about in the water, whether it's the sea or the harbour. When I've been in Cornwall, I've seen lots of the children jumping into the harbours or just swimming across amongst the boats; everyone, even very young children, have boogie boards and a wetsuit, and they're all very at home in the water. It's quite different to what I experienced on Scottish holidays, but Scotland's probably a lot colder!!Judithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01699059997487134415noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-219363636849408472.post-92195018706588444122012-07-16T11:52:58.967-07:002012-07-16T11:52:58.967-07:00Hi Judith, I have two very strong memories of holi...Hi Judith, I have two very strong memories of holidays in Cornwall, 40-odd years ago. The first was the wide expanse of sand, cliffs and massive surf at Watergate Bay. It is all fairly commercial now, with a surf school,etc. The self catering apartments we used to stay in are now a hotel, with Jamie Oliver's Fifteen restaurant a feature. Still a grand piece of coastline, though.<br /><br />The other place we went to was Trevissome House at Flushing on Falmouth Harbour. Self catering apartments again, in a very grand old house, which fronted onto the harbour, a massive natural safe haven which is ria, a flooded river estuary. Messing about on the harbour in boats when we were young teenagers was a fine way to spend a few days. Flushing is supposedly the warmest place in Britain. Bet it's not so nice this summer, though!<br />Stephen, Lime Tree GalleryStephenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04295562323101680693noreply@blogger.com
