    250,000 German tourists visit Cornwall each year, due to tulipe Rosamunde Pilcher books and TV series.
    Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.

      I think you will find that the sea eroded the defences that supported the railway line.
      I will make allowances for the fact that your first language is not English.......coupled to the fact that you are a complete muttonhead.

        BBC News - UK storms destroy railway line and leave thousands without power

        Destroy, not erode.

But instead everyone looks at the place as somewhere that you go to eat fish and chips….

          Given a choice of living in Fowey and working from Home using decent collaboration tools or sitting in a crap office in Old street there is no competition. Why are we not asking the EU to bail out the Rail line? god knows what other infrastructure we have paid towards for Jonny foreigner
          Having spent Christmas in cornwall and knowing friends who live on the Lizard, I've rather gone off the idea in the past month....

              Erosion is what you do to common sense.

              Actually, no - you are also destroying it.

              What's your job that does not require a brain, zombie keeper perhaps?

                It's quite possible mining could return to Cornwall one day, if prices or new techniques make it viaaible.
