Up and Coming In Cornwall – Rachael Saunders

Here at Wild Tide I love nothing more than finding out about talented people working in Cornwall.

Koyo Bom have obviously suffered badly after this massive copyright…

Man’s Best Friend – Hoodies and My New One from Weird Fish

They say that a dog is man’s best friend, I think that ‘they’ are wrong – It’s the hoody.

Everyone has one: their long serving, warm, comfy, reliable hoody. They are there for you through everything, times good and times bad.
