Hou! (Cornish for Hello)
Tine was allowed to work Monday and Friday, I had free Mon and Tue. So we had to turn time on Tuesday, a dip in the nicknamed "" What was really fun. In the port we have our neighbors Jim (he is the beginning of 70) met and talked for a while ... nice Now we know that in St. Ives in 1947 for the last time about 10 - were 15 cm snow ... otherwise, the same as last winter max. for 3 days so 2-3 cm ... therefore, the great vegetation with palms and other subtropical plants. (I have below a picture of a flowering hydrangea - added - from now). Jim, we also learned that the sea front at Porthmeor Beach is very rough. Comfortable we are then available to the "island", the little promontory of St. Ives on the top of a chapel and the Coast Guard has set up an observation point run. Here comes the full force of the Atlantic to the rocks. The waves here were about 3m high. Now and then the waves beat against the rocks then so that the water several feet into the air injected. beautiful spectacle.
Thursday stopped in front of my starting work at 11 clock is also time for an hour walk.
Saturday was a trip in the near Newquay planned. There is an "Elizabethan" house (which I until a few weeks, did not know that the building styles here in England very often named after the reigns of the kings / queens - some exceptions, including "Gothic, Romanesque and Palladian villas). The house is Trerice So from the time of Queen Elizabeth I and thus the old to 400 years.
As so often here in England you get the great views from the road signs and now and then makes a small or large detour that has proven in most cases to be very nice ... including yesterday ... We are in the truest sense of the word in Perranporth "stranded". Here we were nearly blown off. " Again rd. 3 m. high waves and many surfers in the water. Due to the low tide, the beach was almost 200 meters wide, and for ages .... and for our boys once again climb a few rocks at ... (grandmothers and aunts do not worry, they have so practice and do not climb so high that is .. yes not as high as Reinhold Messner)
on Today Sunday (October 10) has returned to the spring. There is little wind, it was a bit hazy and it was great hikes. We were at the "Knill Monument above St Ives, from which one has a beautiful view on a clear day. This monument can be added in 1782 to build a rich population of St. Ives. He wanted to be buried there. This one has not authorized. He is now buried somewhere else, but there is every 5 years, a ceremony in his honor - which he has requested time to his funeral. As to 10 young women have to dance in dresses and what else has ... in spite of the mist flew out the worth, the sun came out yet ... we sit at the foot of the monument as this ... and suddenly we hear a bagpipe player ... there must be a "Möchtegerndudler" but let's see ... the same (after all I have for 3 weeks a chanter - that is an exercise flute - to continue at least in practice)
middle of the Pampa was actually a nice gentleman in his fifties and has played in his car standing bagpipes ... Of course I had to raise him right ... and asked him if he "is nice to his neighbors," he plays here in the sticks ... until that moment I had accepted an offer to play like a short time ... but at the sight of his teeth - I'd rather not describe in detail - I had not played for money ...
scandal of the week:
TalkTalk our phone company .... after a call from a nice fellow on Tuesday, which went on for half an hour ... we were informed that the conveyance on our behalf may be made only if the bill is paid ... our landlady had indeed let go back because the TalkTalk brothers had slept ... a disaggregation of the calculation is not possible and so we should only pay once the bill. To this end we had to call the "costomer Finance" ... So Tuesday morning, the snoring bags called and which stated that we pay the bill, so at last we finally can make the transfer on our behalf.
After all the numbers were exchanged, the me of the Finzanzabteilung reconnected to the service, so that the transfer could take place ... But then the service has stated that he could make it not at all .... Fortunately, the lines in England are so thin, I think otherwise I would sometimes just slipped by ... In short, we will again this Wednesday to ask if the definition works now. Well here we are because sometimes "jespannt!
the meantime you can reach us by phone or e-mail only ... Unfortunately we can not call ...
Regards
Tine Harry Samy Jerry
