Hello
anyone looked at the forecast for the next 5 days? Wow summer is finally here in England. 24c and sunny, sounds good to me. Today was very nice too in my garden. 22c and not a drop of wind. Going to get outside as much as possible now before winter hits. Sunday is looking great too.

Cool, wet and windy here like most of the "summer" has been. Something the brochures and tourism guides don't tell you about in "sub-tropical" Britain!

Ditto!!
I suppose the winter in Cornwall is the time when I should be happy about, a normal Cornish winter that is!
Our highest temperature all summer was a pitiful 22-23C. After spending a decade in Canada where +30C is all but guaranteed, it's quite a shock. Fortunately I won't see a Canadian winter down here, where -30C and below is guaranteed!

Bob youve really put me off visiting cornwall again
Don't let it Cordy, get down to Newquay in july/august. Sun, sea, and surfing...brilliant.
I would love to live facing the sea in Newquay. When we were thinking of going we had seen postcards, really blue sea on the cards. We were amazed at the deep blue of the sea.
It was boiling hot the whole week we were there. I have a soft spot for Newquay...always will have.

We stayed at perranporth just down the road for years but now travel on down to gwithian near hayle,much quieter but same quality beaches if not better

having said that about newquay,id take it over a lot of uk resorts anytime,cant beat the sea in cornwall

-30C
i thought the Cornwall area was meant to be the warmest part of Britain?
and anyhow, i've heard we're all meant to get snow next month!
but then again i suppose knowing our barmy british weather it could change from indian summer into the north pole in the space of more like a day, anytime of year
