The Best Videos of The Cornish Storms

Cornish people are obsessed with the weather, I think it’s because the weather varies so much down here. It goes from super hot, pretty much tropical summers to torrential rain and stormy winters. For January and February unfortunately it’s only been the latter. Inspired by the constant discussion about the weather I decided to purchase this awesome T shirt from 8 Ball. If for some reason you’ve managed to miss the near constant stormy weather, I’ve been kind…

Up and Coming in Cornwall – Droll Tellers

Today you’re going to be reading some quick fire questions I asked to Briony, Josh and Tashi; three illustrators based in Cornwall.

Tehidy Woods & Coastal Path Walk In Salomon Hiking Boots

It’s seems to be brightening up in Cornwall this week. I may have been waking up a bit later for work than normal but it definitely seems to be lighter first thing, adding to this we’ve also had some nice patches of weather (along with some of the usual torrential downpours). Early on Saturday morning my girlfriend and I woke up and decided to go for a walk through Tehidy woods and up and along the North Cliffs coastal…
