There was a large crowd in Redruth today for an international mining and pasty festival. Everybody was eating a pasty.

Outside the Cornwall Centre I spotted Will Coleman – eating a pasty. He was with a black bus – the “Cornish Embassy”. Answer a few questions, get a passport and you can sample a drop of free beer.

It’s an important day for the Cornwall Centre. It’s the final day in this building. Now the library staff need to pack all the books, papers, etc. for a move to a new centre (in the old brewery).

I went to Murdoch House. My friend published a new book about wives left in Cornwall by migrating miners (married widows). I bought it.
