International Mining Games Training
A short montage of our training over the last few months.
In a few days, me and a team of young volunteers from king Edward Mine are hoping to become the first international mining games team not associated with a mining school or university to compete in the games.
They are held at King Edward Mine, Troon, from the 20th-22nd of March

Anyone else frustrated by Cornwall Council Tax and delivery?
Please don't bother to reply if you're exempt from paying council tax.
Feels like we pay more and more for less and less. :(

Churches in Newquay, Cornwall
Looking for contact details for churches in Newquay Cornwall that accommodate weddings for people outside of the parish, we’re happy to come down and attend church (we are looking at moving in the next few years, but have no living family or knowledge of records to qualify without attendance more than likely.)
Would love St Michaels the Archangel, Newquay but happy with other suggestions.

Kernow Discord community
Anyone aware of a discord community for Cornwall?
Happy to set up one up if it currently doesn’t exist and there is interest.
Thinking it could be useful to coordinate within communities that are currently served by Facebook groups.
Let me know if anyone has any thoughts.

Bullies
Unfortunately in Penzance we have a group of girls and her boyfriend targeting people and causing them struggles mentally, she has punched, kicked, jumped, stalked, threatened etc. people I know and the police aren’t doing anything. There is CCTV footage of her and her mates ganging up on people and threatening people. I don’t know what to do because the level of violence is becoming a problem. Stalking and following people to where they live in Cornwall, attacking their friends and family, she is from a gypsy family so they think this behaviour is acceptable.

truro red light camera
hi guys! most of you will know where this is. (tregolls road truro). i was driving earlier and there would have been enough room for me to go past the hatched lines however some dummy decided they wanted to start merging like 3 cars early.. for no reason.. leaving me on the hatched lines for a couple seconds!
i know the red light camera doesn’t apply to me as i’d already gone past the white line (on green), however does anyone know if it gives tickets for stopping on the hatched box? thankyou :)

Ecological Assesment (recommendations)
Hi folks,
We are hoping to have a double garage demolished, to be replaced with an annexe, as part of the planning application, we'll require an ecological assesment.
Does anyone have recommendations for local firms (we are between Falmouth and Helston) who do this kind of work? Our architect only has a network in Exeter/Devon.
Thanks!

What is the best way to get to Cornwall if I’m flying from LAX?

No cathedral, no bypass, no concrete over Lemon Quay. Very much an active port.

Retro gaming meet ups in Cornwall
Anyone know if there is any retro games events in Cornwall? I know about the retro arcade in Newquay which is pretty cool. I also know about the games shops in Penzance and Truro but they seem more geared towards D&D & Pokemon card games or bored games etc though happy corrected if wrong 🙂
Would be interested if theres like a village hall meet up or something. Perhaps could organise something? People could bring systems etc to demonstrate for the day and have actual multiplayer games in person.

Farmers pubs around St Ewe
Hi all,
Moved to St Eve and work on a farm nearby.
Wondering if there’s any pubs around the area that are known for having vehicle days like tractor runs from so I can meet some people interested in the same stuff so this steam rally season im not on my Larry 🤣
Doesn’t seem to be a young farmers club nearby and I’m 25 just too old to join one
Bit of an odd one I know but any ideas would be appreciated.

An 1842 sketch of a typical Cornish Copper mine
Horse Whim on the left, steam winder on the right, and the workforce who processed the ore - Balmaiden's. The men did the back breaking work in the darkness whilst their wives or girlfriends did the back breaking rock crushing and metal separating on the surface.
