I picked up my copy of Cornovia at the Eden Project!

Also must recommend The Romance of the Stones (which I picked up in WHSmiths in Truro) by Robin Payne (illustrated by Rosemarie Lewsey) - covers, allegedly, every megalith in Cornwall, existing or perished. There are 2 editions - one is huge and about £50 depending on where you get it, the other is just the gazeteer, and I got mine for £10. A quick search got me this online reference to the book: http://www.cw.cx/nder/books/rots.htm

Carn Brea (read up on the place before visiting - numerous stones and archaeology features there), Wendron, Burras Menhir, Mabe Church Menhir. Many reports by me, and others are here:

Enjoy yourself!

So much to see in Cornwall!

Still, there's no accounting for taste ;-)

By the by, you can borrow anything you want from me if you want (Belerion, Cornovia, other cornwall books, maps). Don't wanna be negative but I wouldn't necessarily leave guide books to chance when you get there (unless u r just a wild and crazy gal) - Belerion and Cornovia do pop up in lots of touristy places but you can't be certain. And I doubt you'll be able to stumble across the Meyn Mamvro publications.

Well... I'm buggering off on the 18th hopefully... so it doesnt leave an awful lot of time for preparation.

I feel lucky.

Hope I wasn't taken too seriously. I just couldn't resist the 'foulmouth' perversion of the subject.

Cornwall is full of great places - some of the best in GB.


FOUGOU !!!!

Red wine? Red wine makes me laugh raucously, and the I'm hungover for a whole DAY.

Sometimes its not what the sounds mean... its just the sounds themselves that make it worth while.

Thanks for your input folks!
