      Well I thought Cornwall had already gained independence! I keep telling my Cornish camper that the county is only attached by a zip, and will very likely be cast off soon to float away into the mist......proper job!
      There is also talk that planet Thanet will be going the same way :confused:

          Yes and what a fabulous cheese too Zigs.....nettles sre rich in minerals so can you imagine just how good cornish cheese is :)
          Greggs don't cut it down here.....never heard of Philp's famous pasties?
          Independence for Cornwall has always been a talking point Tetters. Already we have a devolved status ! Not too big a step left
          We also had a few gold medallists at the Olympics
          And we have the most coastline of any county so uniquely beautiful
          Oh, as part Aussie I am impartial in saying Cornwall is best :rasp:

            It's quite true!! I was given a sample of yarg just two days ago. It's smashing!
            I have also made heva cake as a gift for Cornish camper (pronounced heavy) - a strange flat job with a criss cross pattern denoting a fishing net.
            They talk funny down there though and they believe in piskies....mind you that could be to do with the cider :drunk:

                Just give me Caerphilly cheese instead (or tintern) :biggrin:

                No idea where I got my so-called "pasty" from Verdun. Don't really care either. Could of got 4 for the price of one from Greggs :rasp:

                        I still want to know why Aussies feel the need to tie their kangaroos down. What do they do with them afterwards? Can it be said on an open forum?:whistle::heehee:

                          That title belongs to Essex (if you're talking England) ;) - if you're talking an "independent" Cornwall ... then it's a no brainer, due to lack of competition :lunapic 130165696578242 5:

                              I bought some of that Cathedral mature stuff, it had absolutely no flavour, so I complained.
                              They sent me a 10 quid voucher.
                              So now I can get 10 quids worth of tasteless cheese for nothing:scratch::biggrin:

                              I was getting to that.:snorky:
