Back home in Sunderland after two weeks near Penzance in Cornwall. Can't say the weather has been brilliant - very changeable just about sums it up and very difficult to plan anything. Even the local radio was often wide of the mark insisting the weather for one particular day was overcast with the possibility of rain - they were saying this as we sat of the beach and not a cloud in the sky! And before anyone asks, they were saying this was the weather for THAT day. Didn't they not think that this was at odds with what was outside their studio window? We know from previous experience that when in the very far southwest of Cornwall, it's probably best to ignore the forecasts and just stick your head out!
