Didn't even do anything for St Patrick's Day and lets face it is an invented celebration! Though something spectacular happened I made it out of Cornwall and into Plymouth for an hour. Your impressed I know. Make ups and break ups..... I think I might have lost passion for this blog thing. Maybe I should have read my previous January Jitters entry to get inspired. I didn't so I'm not it's kinda weird writing things for the public domain, there might be many things that you want to say or more pertenantly express but you can't because well when you live in a small town you really don't want to go around upsetting people, take note! Note to self! Venus is still in the garage, though running for the bus is fun. The buses are far more frequent to Falmouth to Penryn than I ever suspected, and I'm getting so good I can almos t indetify the buses coming while I'm still in the house, in time to run out and catch it. Oh the excitement is so much I bet you just can't bear it.
Been hanging out with loads of people which is probably driving me to exhaustion. Though it's been fun. Spent most of Sunday with Tim going to Marazion, checking out St. Michael's mount and then to Geevor a Cornish Tin mine where we got to walk through the mine working above ground and then into an older 18th century mine, where we heard all about pasty mythology. It's amazing when you get out of town for a day it can completely revive you senses. Not only that I think it's the first time I've ever been to the North Coast and you could see the horizon like a razor sharp line between sea and sky. It was incredible coming out of the sea facing mine shaft, to see the sea and to know that the mine extended a mile and a half out under the sea. The miner who took us round, Dennis told us that at some places the mine shafts were only I meter below the sea bed and in storms the miners could hear the boulders on the sea bed moving. Can you imagine. I think to be a miner you really would have to be pretty hard core. you know ten ours in the dark with nothing but a headlamp for illumination, truly other worldly. There's a meditation for you........consider it? No wonder the are stocky yet laid back wee fucker huh. Say's a lot I mean that would really test you nerve, patience and skill. I think that's what Tim was trying to find out........
Sil haven't book my train ticket to Bristol to get to Milan..... though I have been getting lots of updates on Afton mucus plug. I'm not going to tell you any more about the mucus plug but i'm sure you can look it up on Wikipedia. Lots of things have been going on Din's and I have not started the revolution, though the revolution is here. It's been taking many form like the arrival of Transition Penryn who want to deliver a Plastic Bag Free Penryn, the rebirth of Palestine Cornwall that was started a year ago in response to Gaza being dessimated by Israel. The Work Shift project is slowly rearing it's head in order to become a very real entity but i's taking far more time than I though people are busy or maybe slow. The Cornwall Polytechnic Society will be saved from the dinosaurs that inhabit the coffins that surround it's pearly gates. It was truly shocking firstly because I was locked out and the fact they were really focused on creating some kind of centre for innovation, which was strange because as far as I was aware The Cornwall Polytechnic Society has Been a centre that was founded to support innovation. The best quote of the night was form the president (I think) who's opening line was "when I was first invited to be a trustie for the society I'd never heard of the 'Cornwall Polytechnic Society'. Fabulous.
That's all folks........
