Default West Cornwall - Massive Swell

The sea is just white with foam, www.sennen-cove.com/today2.htm,
luckily it's from a relatively 'safe' direction, it's SE gales which
really cause problems.

I should imagine Porthleven was a dramatic place to be this afternoon,
I was in Tesco leading a sad and boring life.

That is precisely why I go to Waitrose. Tesco is regarded as a firm
that bullies others- a good source stating that was Masterfoods ( Mars
Bars,Galaxy.Revels). Though it was a private comment from someone well
up in the hierarchy,the reasons given were convincing enough. I used
to online shop with Tesco for bulk booze for work but a series of cock
ups and unbelievably stupid handling by 'Customer care' changed all
that. In fact, a surprisingly large number of people down here have
suggested that if one cannot get a job anywhere else, that is where
one should go.

OT, I know, but this touches a real sore spot here in SE London which is
infested with Tescos and no Waitroses at all north of Beckenham.
Grrrrr.

In 1945 Mr. Boyden told us that the name of the lighthouse keeper at
Scilly was Silly and that he was silly.
