Lots of things going on!


It is a good sign if there has been a long silence between blog entries. It means there has been a lot happening. There certainly has! It has the weather to turn horrible (which it has today) to give a breathing space to catch up. Phew! Where do we start?

Well, in no particular order, we are nearly famous!

Photographer Mike Newman (who usually does Cornishman and Cornwall Today) took some photos of basking sharks last year during a trial lesson. He didn't tell us, but the photos (taken in G-EOLX at about 1000ft over Sennen Cove) then found their way into the Sun newspaper. Don't believe us? Well we didn't until we saw the link:

Mike was at pains to point out that the quote "It was amazing" was not from him and was journalistic licence from the Sun. We also think had the photos been published in the Times we may have heard about them sooner from him!


Secondly, we took the editor of Cornwall Today, Alex Wade for a trial lesson the other day. He has published his experience on his own blog below. We think he enjoyed it and we do hope to see him back for lesson 2 soon!
