Ups, downs, mines & drizzle
A bright and blustery start to the day as I left Portreath, all quite quiet and not many other walkers around. There's quite a few valleys between Portreath and Porthtowan so lots of steps, but that was fine on fresh legs. Stopped for the obligatory coffee and cake at Porthtowan and then headed on to 'my patch' again over to Chapel Porth, all the heathland was looking great. Lots of nice generous folk at Chapel chatted and sponsored me so I left on a high, heading round the now very blustery Wheal Coates and St Agnes Head. Popped into SAS, Finisterre (makers of my fine and cosy fleece!) and Atlantic FM on my way past. Thank you to Victoria at Atlantic FM for fitting me into her scheduling and giving me a live interview on the radio! The downside of stopping was that I had to set off in the drizzle which made the mining landscape to Perranporth seem quite spooky! Thank you to Emma for a great evening and really cosy night's accommodation : )
