Teasels: to be found all over Penwith in the autumn, they make good dried flower arrangements for the winter.

We have plenty of old iron down here.  This is part of a rusty ship.

Statue in memory of fishermen who have died at sea.  This was put up about three years ago on the approach to Newlyn.  People were concerned that there was no memorial to fishermen.  The seaman is standing on a gyroscope.

It is quite warm here today although very wet so amazing to remember that exactly a year ago we had really heavy (for Cornwall) snow. Here is a photo of a neighbour's agapanthus that I took on 2 December 2010.


Tomorrow I will see what the plant looks like a year on.  It is possible that there aren't any seedheads because the woman who lived in this house died at the beginning of 2011 and some professional gardeners now live there.  They may have chosen to chop the seedheads off.
