An English Summer 27

 

The smooth curve, of the Flushing shore, provides our wind break, in today's light north breeze.

To our south lie the colourful quays. . . .


. . . . , and entertainments, of Falmouth town.


The official 'Market on the Moor' days are Thursdays and Saturdays. But enough stalls are open today, to tempt me into some, non-essential, purchases. Freshly baked fruit scones, clotted cream, a cheese and onion pasty; replacements for our gauzy, threadbare, tea towels . An emmett, for a day.(Cornish vernacular for tourist)


It is a town, made for shopping by oar. Strategically placed stone steps, are scattered along the High Street, accessed by alleyways or quaysides. Visible once you have your eye in. . . . .and watch the locals.

NB  If you rely on a 'feedburner' email alert, to let you know when I post, please remember that the service is about to be discontinued. Last day, tomorrow. I'm intending to keep posting (more or less) daily, throughout Stargazer's summer adventures. I hope that you will be able to continue to join us.
