Cornwall

We have been in Cornwall for a week now and have been staying in a caravan near Bude and have not yet booked for next week in Devon. Hopefully there are some last minute breaks available.

We have looked at many businesses in Bude, Launceston, Falmouth, Mevagissey, Looe, Truro, St Austell, Padstow, Newquay, Polperro, Bodmin, and many more. We have driven constantly and are shattered. There are however a couple of possibilities and we still have next wek in Devon, assuming we find somewhere to stay.

I will upload some pictures soon but Internet use is almost strictly work time.

In case you are interested the weather is warm but rainy.

Why is Fraser not Anthony anymore????

We get asked this a fair bit from the folks and friends back in the UK, so we explain..... Anthony was supposed to be Fraser but as we drove to hospital (yuk spit) in labour we realised his initials would be FA not great from a football point of view nor another you may think of, so Mr Hojo in his wisdom decided to swap the names around. Mrs Hojo was busy and should have said no, but there you go, she was busy producing offspring in a short staffed, worse than mediocre hospital that leaves people alone for hours on end when they really should be tucked up in a half empty ward, bitter? me? you noticed. Anyhow, Fraser has heard this story a few times, more as we were visiting the relatives one last time before we left the Uk for Oz and piped up that if his Mum wanted me called Fraser them I am.
And that was that.
We started in a new country and all remembered his name, easy as pie.
So now you know.
You know what, he really SHOULD have been called Fraser, it suits. And no one will ever call him Tony, thats a good thing :o)
