The season advances and we come to the end of June with a week of sun, fog, sun, fog and now sun again.Despite the odd morning of fog, St Just is warming up in many ways.
It is warm enough to sit outside the pub for a beer in the evening, but with a lovely breeze that means we rarely experience the intense heat that we used to living in the South East. The town is beginning to buzz with early season visitors and queues in the Co-op are getting longer with purchases of burgers for barbeques and beer to wash it all down.
There is a new gallery due to open in July next to the Cook Book in Cape Cornwall Street, you can now buy ice creams from the shop next to Just Fine Art and, after a short break, the Chinese takeway is back open again.
With Lafrowda just around the corner, the main festival day on 16th July, the programme is now on the website http://www.lafrowda-festival.co.uk/. After years of guests leaving and arriving on Saturdays, we have switched to Friday changovers so that we can enjoy the carnival day and relax like everyone else.
And finally the new leaflets that the Chamber of Commerce is producing to promote the traders and the accommodation in the area are due to arrive any minute and will hopefully encourage even more visitors to our lovely corner of Cornwall. The picture is taken at Cape Cornwall and has been used in one of the leaflets.
