Hmmmnnnn, well, I’ll post later about the haddock – I did get some interesting shots, but not THE crucial one. No doubt the whole episode has already appeared on youtube!

We set out for Redruth, well known (as I’m sure you are already aware) as the first town to intall gas lighting in the streets! Forward-thinking or what?

We managed to give away our bags – as M/C has said, a surprising number of people rushed past, refusing all our offers. On the other hand, several came back for more – for carers, for girlfriends, one chap gave two bags to friends when they met up at the bottom of the statue of the miner where they obviously had agreed to meet.

Some of the people we did manage to speak to –

This lady had trouble choosing which bag to have for her veggies –

This young man was too busy finishing his pasty to hold the bag he chose

The bronze wellie-dogs got in on the action, though I notice that one dog has dropped his bag already!

I would have liked to give a morsbag to the miner a bit further up the street to hold aloft, but he was perched too high up on a column for me to give it to him. 🙁

Miner & bag

What about the haddock?? You’ll have to go to catch-up for that!
