Re: Any other Cornish Kiwis out there?

Cornish boy here - I was the chap that wrote a letter to CCC about them not investing in a stadium for Cornwall - disgusting.
Anyway.. not the point, I'm from Illogan!!!! Couldn't get much closer to Portreath, right? Currently living on the Shore - Milford. You?

Re: Any other Cornish Kiwis out there?
I love Cornwall, have fond memories of my time spent at Tregothnan,
In 1999 I tried to buy the Sea Point House hotel in Mevagissey but the owner was genuinely interested in selling at the time.
If I had to live in the UK it would either be Devon or Cornwall.

On a side note hear, my friends own Cornish pasties NZ ltd, The best traditional recipe pasties in NZ
Now available through many New World supermarkets so much nicer than the terrible Tiber ones they usually sell

Hi Justcol,
<snip> nopes I have decided.
Tried to buy one of their pasties from Albany New World at the weekend but they only had the yucky Tiber ones. I will be looking for them again this week, I can't wait to try them!

Why do I keep having bits snipped out of my posts? (I'm new to all this and a bit confused!)

Read rule 9 and then take it to PM - private message.
ps - I do understand you wanting to up your exposure. The way to do that is to simply post without promoting in any way.

Get 'em to join and post a few general type posts. You know the drill. They can stick their webby thing in their signature as you know.
It can all help to spread the word & be good for us to read their stuff along the way.
