Hi Dimples!

(((((((((Theia)))))))))) - so good to see you!!! Vast amounts have happened this end lately - and hopefully we have some resolution of a few totally impossible situations. With luck, I'll soon be able to wander again - and maybe even mosey along down your way.. I live in hope. In the meantime - I'm actually going to get to see my kids again. I leave for Paris tomorrow. Romy, as you know, lives there. Mik lives in London but is at a film conference in America right now - he'll join us the weekend after next in France. Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee haaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa....

Very interesting grass sculpture. Her face kind of scares me a little though. But overall she's pretty neat.

I remember seeing this on TV on the travel channel about Cornwall, I wanted to jump on a plane to England right then! How interesting is that??

I would LOVE to see that in person, very cool indeed!:-6

Been to Heligan, it's wonderful but then Cornwall is a magical place.

Another wonderful garden is Trebar Gardens http://www.picturesofengland.com/Englan ... n/pictures you walk through the gardens and down to a beautiful private sandy beach, spent a day there last September, it was glorious:D

I'm going here -The Minack Theatre, in August, to see HenryV - can't wait:)

Good to see you, too, Pammie :-6 Please, please, please mosey down this way. I'm moving to a rental in Falmouth at the end of this month and I think I'll be there for about a year, so don't delay!

Glad to hear things are resolving for you. Have a really lovely time in Paris. My daughter and son-in-law were there in February to celebrate 20 years of marriage.

You're on, Theia!!! I think the goddess is my kinda lady, even if (maybe even because) she has a scary face... grin. Take care, everyone, and look after the garden. I'll pop in if I can, but don't expect to be much connected till late May. Au revoir!

Walked past the Lost Gardens last year when I walked the Coast Path from Truro to Plymouth. It was pouring with rain and I'd planned to stop at the Eden Project, so I didn't stop there. Ah well. Something to do next time.

I gather the Lost Garden was rediscovered by the same bloke who does the Eden Project, with a huge number of local volunteers doing most of the labour. I understand they became lost because the children of the family and almost all the folk who worked there died on the Western Front in World War One.
