The weather was good apart from one day. That's the kind of thing we all say about a British vacation (except the one may be up to seven!). Cornwall, once a poor faraway mining and fishing area, is now quite a slick kind of place and it doesn't take an expert to work out that much of the money in Cornwall has been gained elsewhere and brought here as to nature's playground for some fun in old age or earlier.
I wonder whether this makes for more contented people though? Or were the miners that crowded the Methodist chapels to sing their praise to God as happy in their limited expanses as the people popping down in the Porsche to the Michelin starred seafood restaurant? I cannot say.
I know this cow was content though. Just some grass will do. I think I'll try and learn a lesson from the cow.
