With howling Southwesterlies battering Cornwall, we popped over to The North coast to look at the waves. A walk along Fistral yielded interesting stones for craft ideas, the wind was whipping sand in great whirling patterns. We had very delicious fish and chips in town, had a look at the surfers by the harbour wall, took a romantic photo and then met Tim Mellors for coffee. Then we trawled the surfy shops for Christmas presents and by the time we got back to the car (parked half a mile from the nearest seawater) it was covered in salt spray. That's how windy it was!
