Just watched that Moss, thank you. Am heading down that way on Saturday for a relaxing week, hopefully. I take the point about Natural England in this instance but to be frank am getting sick of hearing other bits of the UK telling England to fuck off. They are quite happy to take the money from English visitors while insulting us at the same time. Good luck to Scotland whichever way they vote today but as far as Cornwall is concerned .... being a generally polite Englishwoman, I won't comment further.
Enjoy your stay in our little corner of paradise June but don't get lost on the moors will you as you may not get anyone prepared to come out and rescue you if you think so badly of us!
I don't think she thinks badly of people from Cornwall, I think she's fed up with pathetic, outdated, small minded nationalistic attitudes.

Exactly! Thanks for that. I have a great love for the ancient sites of Cornwall - Penwith in particular and support the campaign to remove the cattle if they are damaging the stones. And the barbed wire fences/cattle grids. I'll never support the nationalistic flag waving or, quite frankly, the racism in the latter part of the video posted above. I seem to recall we were being asked to take our holidays in Cornwall earlier in the year following the damage done by floods - in order to support the Cornish economy.
