After a long if not hot summer, it’s time to resume blogging again.  I managed an early holiday in beloved Cornwall and after that it was writing, writing, writing!

Talking of Cornwall, the news tonight is that Falmouth Coastguards have (again) been instrumental in a long-distance rescue, this time of a British couple whose campervan took a tumble into a river the Brazilian outback.   Great to be that adventurous, but hurrah for mobiles, GPS, satellite phones and the good Coastguards down in Cornwall.

I’m going to be off and down to Cornwall again for another ‘fix’ before the clocks go back:  after a few months withdrawal symptoms start to set in and it’s time to hit the A303 once again.
