  1. Super photos and video Rachel - we were up at Gwennap Gead on Friday and took photos of the Sea King as it arrived & left and realised that they were off to Royal Cornwall - (usually right over our house) - we then saw the lifeboat heading home - but I was a bit confused as I could see it wasn't the City of London - later discovered that they have a relief boat at the moment. Know what you meant about the "Silly Season" we had a couple of nasty moments as we drove to Porthgwarra with cars driving down the middle of the narrow road & not moving over ! Sue
