Apparently, according to the paper, the Cornish want the England flags banned from all shops in Cornwall because they consider them to be foriegn! Honest you couldn`t make it up, does that make the Cornish rascist, are they just Welshman in disguise? Fecken funny feckers that lot, they make me laugh anyway! One moment they hail themselves as the true blood English and anyone else is foriegn because the invaders never made it that far west and the invaders polluted all other blood streams in the mainland next moment they state their not English at all and sod off with ya Goerge cross! Are they confused, fickle or deranged or is it possible to be all three at the same time! Maybe this is what happens when you are polluted by pasties, some wierd type of pastie dellusional state of insanity induced by Ginsters!

One moment they hail themselves as the true blood English It's true blood BRITISH they claim to be, not English. Which is probably even more ridiculous. Who exactly is going to enforce such a "ban"?

They are a strange bunch down there. I used to do quite a lot of work down in cornwall and i was always curious as to why there were no tall, blond good looking birds there. Apparently there is an historical answer. When the vikings invaded Britain they proceeded to sack all the villages they came to, raping and pillaging as they went. Evetually they cam to the Tamar. Their leader scouted the other side and found that all the women were squat, dark haired with beards. He promptly ordered his troops that only pillaging would be permitted. Let them have their wishes, who needs them anyway? Same for the Sweaties and the Taffs. Inbred, ungratefull losers!!

I'm with DtG on this. Hey, it's only about 6 miles from the source of the Tamar to the North coast; I say dig a canal to the sea, blow up the bridges and then float the feckers out into the Atlantic never to be seen again......................and take Argyle with them! What do you call a Cornishman with anal hair and an erection? A witch on a broomstick!

As I’ve indicated elsewhere, I had a fighting chance of working in the Truro/Falmouth area on a full-time basis from August. I’ve declined the opportunity largely because of geography - it’s a long haul and there’s not too many places to go when you get there – nor, it must be said, is it a place for the football enthusiast.
Otherwise Cornwall remains a lovely place to visit and, depending on your outlook, I can see its appeal as a place to live for those who choose to move there. And, from what I’ve seen, there’s a fair degree of relatively youthful middle-class migration attracted by the creative industries, the growing university sector and the whole sailing-and-surfing sub-culture. In that way Cornwall has changed but not – I gather – to everyone’s liking. Dynamism (and satisfaction) in places and within some groups; stasis (and dissatisfaction) elsewhere.
The Cornish nationalism debate rumbles on in the letters pages of newspapers – very much as you’ll often see letters about hunting in other parts of the South West – and appears to be set-piece in the way it is played out. The usual people saying the usual things – one way or another – and very much a side show to the mainstream. It is, of course, a relatively small number of people in Cornwall who wish for English symbols to be banned rather than any official policy.
Q Which Cornish-born pasty entrepreneur has played in a World Cup finals tournament?

Blimey barty, cracking question...................obvious answer would be the one that sounds like wimpsters (can't bring myself to say the name). Dewdney maybe.......hang on is this a set up?.........waiting for the punch line!

That would be Ivor (nude knees) Dewdney who was the World Shorts Dropping Champion, but don't forget Garry Ginster who took part in the Global Hamster Mincing event.....................although Gawd knows what they did with all that 'amster meat!

I've always classified Cornwall the same way I do with France. It's a very nice place to visit but the local population don't deserve to live there.

And here's good old Ivor himself. More at www.ivordewdney.co.uk/photogallery.htm:I was down the Argyle recently and I suspect there's an Ivor Dewdney Exclusion Zone (IDEZ) whereby the terms of the Ginsters sponsorship dictate that a Dewdney cannot be sold within 400 metres of Gnome Park. Ever enterprising, this means Ivor's successors now have mobile pasty wagons stationed around the area with an unmarked white van whizzing between locations to replenish supplies. There's usually a mobile outlet on Barn Park Road for those in the know (where I enjoyed a fine "medium" washed down by the customary away victory)....

That's all right then, keep the ecoli inside and poison all the inbreds in one go and achieve what Hitler couldn't do with the bombing. Better chase the man in the van than eat that greasy rubbish from Ginsters, anyway that's how Dewdneys started out wasn't it ~ selling from vans?

One moment they hail themselves as the true blood English and anyone else is foriegn because the invaders never made it that far west and the invaders polluted all other blood streams in the mainland Well the Romans set up their regional command at Isca Dumniorum (Execeter to you and I)................the "City of Little Fishes" and reputedly sent raiding parties into Janner Land to reap the benefit of the silver and tin mines under the command of TFF member Vespasian so perhaps he could enlighten us as to the rape and pillage that went on. Perhaps those Benynes Kernow really were so dammed ugly it became pillage and pillage instead, or maybe the sheep got a good seeing to as they did in Miac's neighbourhood or maybe even the men had to take the full force of the Roman thrust West. Vespasian.....................speak to us!
