Cornish Trip 2010

[Richard C]

Just a quick taster of Saturday's mystery tour, lead by Job.

Our trusty steeds


Job's Coupe in action






A very civilised coffee stop halfway through the tour, this place was amazing I will be defintately going back there again.





My kids in front of some symbols of the rescession.

This place also had a bit of history

Now there is a coincidence!!

On the way back from a friend of the family's wedding Mum, Dad and I stopped at that exact same mill!

Really nice place and so secluded!

Looks like you all had fun

[CHR15E]

That spoiler looks so much better on your car in those pics Rich.

so it turns out I didnt really take any photos of worth ill post a couple anyway!

firstly some really unappetising looking sausages, notice the 'toxic mist' coming from them, Vard had three of them and seemed to enjoy them, I had one half of which was raw, the other half was quite burnt and tasted of bbq lighter fluid.


the gang minus rich c at the Jamaica inn


not sure about this one


my van, isnt it lovely.. not


and drunk Vard

[Vard66]

That's not drunk Vard.

That's Almost Sober But Repeatedly Being Blinded By Rich's Phone Camera Flash And Getting Rather Hacked Off With It Vard.

[rich1988]

look drunk to me, and being you were drunk prettttty much the whole trip there is a good chance you were fairly intoxicated by that point

[Vard66]

I was squinting against the bright light, ass.

But yeah, ok. I might have been a little tanked.

[Richard C]

You were perminently tanked! I couldn't belive when I looked into the van on the Sunday morning and you were sat in your deck chair with a tinny.

[Richard C]

Anyway, A few shots from day 2 Sunday and we all met up at Zennor outside the rather lovely Cafe. After a walk around the old Church we had a drink in the local pub The Tinners Arms and then proceeded along the coast road. If you have never been along the north Cornish coast road between St. Ives and St. Just it is VERY narrow and very twisty.

Zennor church.


Job, Chris and Steve enjoy the sunshine and a pint and Rich enjoys his half a Babycham.

A small Statue on the wall of the pub.


We tried to ignore these two, and pretend they weren't with us but they kept following us around.


Marlborough's finest looking out to sea.


Vard and Steve decide to have a closer look at the sea, in an attempt to see how accurate the GPS height feature on their phone was.

The little blue dot to the left of the photo below is Vard.











We then carried on along the coast road trying to find an open pub to have lunch but we failed so we ended up at Cape Cornwall for sarnies and ice cream


The view from the monument at Cape Cornwall, The monument was donated to the National Trust by Heinz.




I nearly forgot to say, Total Mileage for the weekend = 900!!

Not bad a for a 21 year old banger.

[CHR15E]

That's some mileage in a weekend. Pretty sure it would have been cheaper to stop.

[Manalishi]

Fantastic scenery. It is so beautiful!

[rich1988]

it wasnt baby cham!!! it was some obscure cider

[Richard C]

it wasnt baby cham!!! it was some obscure cider

Your face whilst you were drinking it was a picture!

[rich1988]

thats because it tasted like somebody had already drank if before me and what I was drinking was the contents of their bladder, sour and nasty would be two words I would use, still was a good weekend, if we do another one (better organised) reckon youll come along?

[Richard C]

oh yes, drag Ellis along
