I am 6 miles behind schedule which means my day off in Falmouth can only be half a day. I left the Youth Hostel with a bill of £35.00 which included dinner, bed and breakfast, 2 pints of beer and a towel. It was not a nice day which I was almost grateful for as it gave me an excuse to walk on the road and along inland footpaths. St. Kaverne was where I met the Cornish flag flying from the church tower. It was here that in 1497 Michael Joseph Angof led a poorly armer group of protesters to London and ended up hung, drawn and quarted for his efforts. The Cornish nationalists have their origins here and it is clearly still an issue celebrated by a significant group. My angel today was Suzie Armstrong who intercepted me at Gillam and knew who to phone for a ferry to St. Anthony where the waters have been served by 4 generations of the same family. It was a more formal ferry crossing over the Halford River where I arrived at the end of a Gig Event. I walked on to Mawvan where Tom Allan picked me up. Tom was the BBC Scotland reporter who featured me on an arts programme last year and who is now doing a course in Falmouth. His cure for all things is to turn upside down on an inversion table and roll on a ball.

Good to hear about St Anthony in Meneage again - what a beautiful spot.
Trust Tom Allan will get you into the sea again this year.
