There are only thirty days in it, like April, September and November. Only February is a shorter month, even in a leap year. The other months are one day longer. In English, there is a rhyme to help children remember. We need something like that for Cornish. Who will write it? Certainly, June was the hottest month this year. Is it a record? Cornwall is a bit cooler than London! And, this morning, it i...

This full moon is called a Strawberry Moon. It's the season for picking strawberries! I can't see the moon, but I can find some tiny strawberries in my garden. They are small, but they are not the smallest thing in the garden. Look at the...

He began trench digging by removing some soil. I took a pot of that soil for my garden, without doing anything with it. What  surprise! There were seeds in the soil, and nor I have one beautiful red flower. The snail is happy. There are tasty leaves for it to eat. It does not eat the leaves in the nearby pot. They are not so tasty, it seems.

We are three old women, and we do not like this hot weather. Not at all! We are living in different parts of the country, but everywhere it is the same thing. Keep cool in the house, and use a fan, if you have one. Go out in the early morning if necessary. One friend is in the Isle of Wight. That's like Cornwall. My other friend is near London, far from the sea. She is in worse heat than ...

The windows are shaking and the rain has started.

  2026 Dedh Cans Trei Ügens ha Pemdhek De Merher, pajwora warn ügens mis Efen Wednesday, 24th June Etho, na ellama mos mes e'n tòbmder-ma. Na wra vy cowsel gen nagonan e'n strêt. Martesen my alja gelwel nebonan dhe'n chei vy; nebonan gen car dhodho. "A venjes ta cawas bolla'de? Badna corev yeyn, martesen? Elles ta còrtos rag kidnyow? Ma pesk ha scòbmow dhebm (e'n stiver). Po martesen nebes salat a via gwell. Ma tomatys ha lattys e'n yeyner." So, I can't go out in this heat. I won't chat with anyone in the street. Perhaps I could invite somebody to my house; somebody with a car. "Would you like to have a cup of tea? A drop of cold beer, perhaps? Can you stay for dinner? I have fish and chips (in the freezer). Or perhaps some salad would be better. There are tomatos and lettuce in the fridge."
