A week and a half 'till holiday!!

Can you believe it's only a week and a half until we go to Cornwall again - yippee!! it doesn't seem like a year since we were last there.

Those of you that know me well, know that I go to Cornwall EVERY year without fail with my family. We stay in a village called Porthtowan on the North coast near to St. Agnes. We are spending two weeks there and I just hope the weather is good to us, I want to get on that beautiful beach.

One of our favourite places to visit is St. Ives and we have a meal booked for the Thursday night at a restaurant called Alba which is situated on the harbour. We always pass it when we visit so thought we might as well eat there this year.

The worst part is getting there - a 330 mile drive, leaving at 3am - yikes! Well at least it misses the traffic. I wish i was there now rather than sitting at my desk at work LOL!

Cornwall looks like a lovely spot :) I hope that the weather smiles on you and you have a wonderful time :) Would love a postcard - hint hint!

Hi Hetty - thanks for featuring my website - OneStIves - on your blog. Hope you have a great time. Most people reckon Alba is one of the best restaurants in town. Also my wife Jo runs a knitting group in St Ives Library every other Tuesday evening, 7.00 - 9.00. Next one is on Tuesday 12th August if you want to go along. Cheers. Steve.

Hi Hetty, thank you for visiting my blog and for leaving such nice kind words. As soon as I am finished here I will go have a read of yours, it looks so lovely and enticing!
Have a lovely day in your little corner of the world.

I'm envious (although we are about to go to Pembrokeshire tomorrow). Love Cornwall though.
