Today is a sad day for me. I am remembering Rosina, my beautiful sister. She died on this day seven years ago. She was born before the second world war, so was going to school in wartime. The children carried gas masks. After school she trained to be a tailoress. She was a wonderful tailoress. She cut and sewed clothes for all the family - including my wedding gown. She was a marvellous baker too - she made my tasty wedding ca...

He wants to be sitting on the granite chippings. It is difficult to see his grey hair against the grey granite. They are the same colour. Today, the sky is the same colour as well, though a bit faded. Fortunately, there are more colours in the flowers, although the hedges and tree trunks are dark.

Aradia wrecked her protective collar and tore her stitches (from her surgery). She had an open wound. She had to go to the vet to be stitched together again - and for a new protective collar.

William Rowe was a farmer in the 17th century. We have part of the Bible translated by him into Cornish. We see The Ten Commandments. He wrote " Na ra (chee) " for "Do (thou) not" and " Gwra " for "Do". Now, our spelling is somewhat different but we can understand his words, and we still use " Na wra (chy) " for "Do (thou) not" and " Gwra " for "Do".
