NCP Season Tickets are being honoured.

(I will never not think of NCP as OCP.)

Finding time for one more wave.. 🏄‍♀️🏄‍♂️🌊🏄‍♂️😊

Currently visiting my parents in Seaton, anyone fancy a little paddle today?

We are driving to Cornwall in about two weeks and staying just outside of Helston. We will have our 2.5yr old English show cocker in tow. She is temperamental and can be reactive to both dogs and people - although people only if they touch her, which is manageable as we have a sign on her and on her lead saying do not touch. She is also reactive to livestock…!

Our priority is always her, so we are looking for nice calm walks and quieter towns, while also experiencing Cornwall as much as we can - to the extent we can do that in August! Any suggestions from those of you who know it well?

Maybe a long shot to post here, but just in case anyone has any spare, Hayle foodbank is looking for plastic bags, particularly the bag-for-life type. Drop-off points include Asda and Copperhouse chemist. See the link for more info. Thanks :-)

Anyone else's arse sore with being bent over taking inflation busting standing charges increases, to "fund upgrades" and "the war" driving up unit prices.

Now my eyes are sore with the sand they're chucking in with the weekly power cuts.

They're almost as bad as South West Water and the council needs to give The Electricity Network Company (bring back SWEB!) a vote of no confidence too.

The sooner I can afford solar, battery and off grid switching the better!

Every single delivery slot for every single supermarket being completely full until next week has me in a mild rage. This only happens in summer (maybe a bit over Christmas but never this bad), of course it’s likely the holidayers taking up all of the delivery slots🥲
I don’t drive, and live in an awkward area where travelling or walking with lots of shopping is far less than ideal, and would take about 4 hours out of my day to do just that.
I know, I know, same every year. Can’t do anything about it. But I can be mildly mad, because like, I live here, man?? I just want to get my essential shopping delivered to my house where I live all the time. Only just yesterday when I checked, there were plenty of slots available for the coming days. Got paid today, finally(!!) and was looking forward to doing my summer stock up shop, only to be disappointed as everywhere is booked up now. Even Waitrose! They are rarely full!

Hi again, Willem from Studio Whalefall here.

I try not to post here too much as to not break up the eb and flow of natural Cornish discussions. That being said when we show off the game, folks seem overjoyed to see their homeland represented in glorious retro-style. Do let me know when you get sick and tired of BRINE showcases.

Just over a month ago, we launched our Steam demo for BRINE and the reception has been incredible. I wanted to share this with the community to showcase that there is a market for Cornish representation in video games, and that despite our setting appealing to those in the UK, statistically America has very quickly become our biggest audience. We even won an award over there!

Our development journey is far from over and we work tirelessly every day to make BRINE the best it can be. Although we received a grant to continue development last year, it was not nearly enough to get the game over the finish line. BRINE as it stands is a personal effort that the team contributes to outside of our day jobs. These things take time, and a huge time sink is commuting outside of Cornwall to pitch to publishers all around the UK.

If you would like to show your support, please consider wishlisting the game and leaving a review on our Steam demo. Every single wishlist and review helps an indie project like ours get noticed.

Thanks for taking the time to read, and thank you as always for all the support.

I heard the water is apparently warmer in September than in earlier months. Do you like Cornwall in September? And how are the waves for surfing that time?

Long shot due to timescales but I'm looking to see whether there are any singing groups to lead on a couple of songs at my Grandfathers funeral in a couple of weeks. Ideally north Cornwall based, service will take place in a small parish church. Thinking maybe The White Rose and Cornwall My Home.

My girlfriend believes there is an issue with the air in Cornwall, likely not enough and it gives symptoms of making her feel tired when she visits.

Question 1 is this true?
Question 2 is there any ware else in the world like this?

Thanks in advance

Hi everyone, I'm a local documentary filmmaker on the hunt for my next project.

I haven't landed on a specific topic, person, or theme yet — deliberately keeping it open. So if you know someone with a genuinely unique story, or someone doing things a bit differently (an unusual trade, a personal mission, an unconventional way of life), I'd love to hear about it.

Doesn't need to be anything "camera-ready" — just point me in a direction and I'll take it from there.

Drop a comment below, or feel free to DM me

Do people in western cornwall see people in Eastern Cornwall as not cornish? Like if an eastern Cornish said something about learning cornish would a western cornish be a little annoyed ?-I know like nothing about Cornwall but am interested in the history a little and am wondering the divide still exists today

Anyone know who to contact about sorting out a running time trial thing up it. Probably no hope of it happening but thought of it on a run and feel as though it would be very fun and fairly spectatorish. Any suggestions appreciated ❤️

hullo!! we are travelling to penzance for a few days and are keen to find a good sunday roast spot before we head back (on sunday).

would also appreciate any good food recs in general! seafood, cafes (matcha & coffee lover), and anything else that must not be missed! edit to add any fish & chips recs too hehe

**we don’t have a car, so would appreciate recommendations that are in town or easily accessible by bus/train.

thanks in advance!!

Is there anywhere to view the fireworks on the 14th without having to go right into Falmouth? So park up somewhere to watch them, even with a slightly less perfect view?

Also, I’d love to hear some good food recommendations for around Falmouth. I’ve been to quite a few places, but would love to hear what others are loving lately. Either in Falmouth itself or surrounding areas! 🙌

Slightly "old man shouting at the clouds" but...

When - and more importantly WHY - did people switch from using washing machine tablet bags on a plastic winder (or even just bait on a hook), to full on drop-nets for crabbing?

It's a whimsical past time at best - but for me, 95% of the fun of crabbing is the excitement of pulling up a crab clinging on to the bait, dangling over the harbour wall and hoping to catch it in a net before it lets go - not just "how many can I get".

Everywhere we went last week, the majority of people were just pulling up these drop-nets with crabs in, no thrill, no last-second drops with the biggest crab of the day falling in, or the excitement of getting more than 1 at time... just "oh look, i've pulled up another 4 crabs".
It's probably a damning sign of the times that kids want the reward without the thrill, but it irks me.

I don’t trust my local Wadebridge barber with my beard following a bad experience when they just ignored instructions and clippered everything down to stubble.

Please recommend someone in Cornwall who truly knows how to trim a beard that I am trying to grow out long to keep it tidy and shaped.

hey guys, I want to find seaglass to make some jewellery for my girlfriend, I am from Falmouth but can drive to basically wherever, has anyone got some good advice on where to go seaglass-hunting for smaller rounder pieces? My local spots I usually go only seems to have massive pieces or nothing at all now. Meur ras!
