After being treated to a delicious brunch at The Blue Bar in Porthtowan we had a very windy walk on the beach. A couple of the gusts nearly had me blown over but LiveWire 4 marched all over the beach, collecting stones and having fun.
One of the family decided to go for a paddle!
Later, we visited our lovely friends and spent some time admiring their very beautiful young cat, Frank.
Brunch at The Blue Bar is a tradition whenever the family are here – delicious food followed by fun on the beach, body boarding and messing about in the water – for the family, not us!
We have lovely pinkish rose buds.
And a gorgeous rose.

This morning on our way to the Blue Bar for lunch with all the family, our newly met little niece, presented me with a little bouquet.

Great fun was had by all the little cousins.

The London branch of the family were due to leave by train this afternoon but in getting to the station we discovered that the train had been cancelled and the next one not for two hours which meant arriving in London well after 11pm. Home we went again to return for the 6.03pm. When we arrived at the station the lovely lady behind the counter called us over and told K that she was doing her an up-grade to First Class because of the inconvenience! The children were over the moon and so was K! What a lovely kind and considerate thing for her to do.
The Perthi Kov team have all been hard at it today, costume schedules, character discussions, poster making and programme designing – just brilliant and I want to record my thanks to the team making this happen. They know who they are. The flyers are ready for printing too.
We had supper at The Blue Bar this evening and then had a walk on the beach at Porthtowan. We spotted a handprint that suggested someone was doing cartwheels earlier in the evening. I used to love cartwheeling across the beach!
We watched the rowers practising.
Just a gallery of a lovely day for you today. Our eldest daughter came to join us for lunch at The Blue Bar and then home for the afternoon. Only another half day with L and the Littlest Livewire……
1 I love the vibrant beauty of dandelions!
These were growing at the side of the beach in Porthtowan.
2 We determined to go to the beach at Porthtowan whatever the weather today and, although a bit chilly, we had lots of fun. Jake in his little wet-suit, played in the very cold water!

Tabitha loved running about on the sand
3 We followed these adventures with beautiful hot chocolates at The Blue Bar Porthtowan where we met Claire and Ammar which was rather special.
