Friday 11th June 2021 to Thursday 17th June 2021
The week started out a bit misty on the Roseland coast but from Saturday we were booked into Trevedra Farm a couple of miles from Land’s End…
Gwynver beach
First day on the new site some complete nutjob tried his very best to start a fight with me at the washing-up station over a few traces of olive oil left in a sink. I declined to get over excited about being called a twat; at 62¾ I think my days of brawling with strangers are long over 😀
It takes just over an hour to walk the coastal path from the campsite to Land’s End via Sennen’s Cove…
The remains of RMS Mulhein
Dr Syntax’s Head at Land’s End
The Longships Lighthouse on Carn Bras off Land’s End
Next on the list of places to visit were the old copper and tin mines of Botallock…
Mine ruins at Botallock
Crowns Engine Houses at Botallack
Then on to the NT site at Levant…
the Levant Mine
All in all it’s been a great week here at Land’s End.
Elsewhere, the pantomime does continue; having delayed putting India on the red travel list by three weeks because he was due to visit the country himself Boris has now had to delay the next step of the unlocking because the Indian variant is spreading like wildfire.
If we have learned anything from this pandemic it is that without a proper lockdown the virus just spreads and spreads so it’s odds-on the numbers are going to look even worse come July 19th; what will the idiot do then?
