R A I N B O W

Good morning from me, Fowey and a sunrise double rainbow 🌈

This morning I'm having a slightly relaxed start, as I have a meet-up with National Trail Officer, Lorna to fix some new signage in place. Hope she has time for a coffee β˜•οΈ in one of Fowey’s delightful coffee venues, but she's another very busy woman, so it might just be a quick chat over the toolbox 🧰 and away πŸ˜‰

PERRANPORTH TO ST AGNES

Out today on a glorious sunny 🌞 day to walk a few miles to and round St Agnes Beacon on the coast path with very cheerful company.

The weather was most accommodating, if a little windy, to wow my South African guest on a first trip to Cornwall. South Coast tomorrow...

IT'S NOT RAINING 😁

Today was part of the yellow warning ⚠️ for RAIN, but we've been spared.

As you can see here at Berrill's Yard the sun 🌞 and the tables are out, so all's well with the world.

BRONN WENNILI

As yesterday's teeming rain burnt off, an impressive bank of mist lingered over Bodmin Moor- seen here from the top of Fowey Main Car Park, now part of my walking routes to town.

Still topped with cloud, just right of centre shot, is our highest peak - Bronn Wennili (known unfortunately to English folk responsible for mapping and naming things, as Brown W***y 😬). It's a fantastic walk and last time I went with the conditions were similar and I had to map&compass navigate. Super fun and I arrived within just a few meters of my target point to rejoin marked tracks, after a blind romp across the Moor!

Today no map and compass were required to get to my Dr's surgery then down to town for errands, chatting, coffee, lunch and finally purchasing milk - has to be semi-skimmed.

CANCER CHECK-UP TIME #3

Off to Treliske again today for my six-monthly appointment with my wonderful Consultant Oncologist. She's happy with me and I got TWO nice compliments: for my positivity and my abdominal muscle tone. Both very gratefully received but especially the latter, as I've had to work hard on recovering that after surgery.

Nobody wants to see a cancer clinic, so here's part three of my walk back into the city centre.
β€’ the path through Victoria Park with the Kenwyn, increasingly sunken, on the righthand side and the watercourse known as The Leats - part of an ambitious Victorian water engineering project, supply aerated fish ponds, waterfalls and channels in Victoria Park plus a system of partly open channels along many city streets. These are believed to have been used for street cleaning and watering horses 🐎
β€’ there's a cafΓ© in the park, but I didn't have time today
β€’ one of the arched tunnels where the watercourse has to pass under a city road
β€’ the road name - in English and Kernewek - reflecting the importance of the leats in this part of the city
β€’ quite suddenly, you find yourself amongst delightful passages with shops and cafΓ©s
β€’ tempting boutiques
β€’ floral displays
β€’ an open section of leat, at the bottom of Lemon Street
β€’ a quick lunch in the Green Room before getting bus/train home; part of my journey was shared with a really lovely little boy of 6, who was chatty, interesting and very bright - travelling with his dad who, I believe, was rightly proud of his middle child.

β€’ just one car passed me on this half mile stretch
β€’ first glimpse of the railway viaduct which dominates this part of the city
β€’ Truro likes things in threes: three spires on the Cathedral and three rivers running into and through the city centre: this one is the Kenwyn
β€’ the railway viaduct again, from the level route into town
β€’ footbridge into Victoria Park

CANCER CHECK-UP TIME #1

Off to Treliske again today for my six-monthly appointment with my wonderful Consultant Oncologist. She's happy with me and I got TWO nice compliments: for my positivity and my abdominal muscle tone. Both very gratefully received but especially the latter, as I've had to work hard on recovering that after surgery.

Nobody wants to see a cancer clinic, so here's part one of my walk back into the city centre.
β€’ the grand gateway and driveway avenue at Truro School prep site
β€’ Most of my route was on Coosebean Greenway - a surprising quiet green track on the fringes of a busy major road into Truro
β€’ a section of the well maintained and lit pathway
β€’ autumn colours - Hypericum androsaemum with its black ⚫️ berries and rusty red bramble leaves
β€’ several stone and other benches are placed along the sunny south-facing side of the path
β€’ informal links have been made to local housing areas
β€’ a football ⚽️ pitch at the ready for youngsters to use unsupervised; such an important part of growing up
β€’ another section of the route, with the beautiful hilly countryside beyond
β€’ in a woodland mostly of Hazel trees which had formerly been coppiced, there was plenty for the numerous grey squirrels to eat

P U Z Z L I N G πŸ€”

Sometimes my daily round of puzzles are more puzzling than others.

Today DIGITS loaded without any of the...err...digits! Just to keep me on my toes presumably. Incidentally I now only allow myself to solve these if my solution uses ALL 6 of the digits. Very satisfying and a bit more of a challenge.

These puzzles have helped me immensely with re-sharpening my memory and recall since chemotherapy wreaked havoc there!
I still lose the occasional word, but very rarely considering how many words I share during my walks and guests are incredibly sweet about this. I wouldn't have a different job for the world 🌎

CLAVERTON TO AVONCLIFF

Walking the Kennet & Avon canal towpath from Claverton Pumping Station to Avoncliff Rail Station with .

We had a welcome stop in the shade then walked on through glorious countryside and passed many very smart narrowboats.

We had an interesting experience at Avoncliff Station while waiting on one of the narrowest platforms on the network. Luckily, I'd stressed the importance of staying behind the yellow 🟨🟨🟨🟨 line; a very long, very fast goods service passed through and gave us a good vacuum clean!

YESTERDAY

We started at Looe with a mix of coastal walking and town/Beyond Paradise wandering. After lunch at The Pier Cafe we took the bus to Polperro and had some more walking and mooching until the last 481 picked us up for our return journey to Polruan and ferry to Fowey.

Special thanks to Boheme by Salt Society for warming me up with a coffee, before I headed home.

That was my final day with lovely guests from USA πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ and Taiwan πŸ‡ΉπŸ‡Ό.... but they're already planning their return!
