Published on: 29th July, 2024

Despite the psychological impact of having to pause again for the weather this time the clouds came with a silver lining as they sought shelter in Coverack Cove just as the carnival was on.

But how much would all this test their resolve though as the smell of fresh fish and chips wafted over Boudicea’s bow?
