Paul and I had our annual St. Ives pilgrimage recently, but due to the terrible rain we had been having I managed to persuade him that camping was not such a great idea. So we ended up staying in the Pedn Olva hotel, with the most fantastic views of the sea and the harbour. Although the weather was pretty crap - we had a gorgeous time, being lazy and relaxed, we ate in our favourite places, looked round the shops, visited our favourite spots and beaches. Saw a good exhibition in the Tate, called "if everyone had an ocean" - very interesting. Treyarnon beach where I wanted to swim in the rock-pools is really busy these days, and they have knocked down the little surf cafe that was there and now seem to be building holiday homes. Bah!!
