Storm, Buttermarket and Our Town Crier

It should have been the Mining and Pasty Festival today but some of the day had to be cancelled and the rest moved indoors as there was the most tremendous storm turning our main street into a river. There was thunder and lightning throughout Cornwall and a local photographer gave me permission to show you his amazing photo taken looking over St Ives.

Our ancient Butter Market is undergoing renovation and should be opening next month. We were allowed a walk around today and it is looking very good indeed.

Our Town Crier Max was about town doing his thing and kindly stopped for me to get some photos.

Wind, Rain and Rainbow Glass

A couple of videos today of our wild weather –  the big fir tree where many birds hang out and next door’s Camellia and Tree Fern being buffeted about. The wind has been about 30mph all day with gusts in the 50s. We’re expecting much the same tomorrow.

 

My Rainbow glass looks very pretty with the mini tree lights behind it.

I bought our Daffodils eight days ago and they are still giving us joy.
