Visiting Fives

Three MX-5's from the North Thames Area were in Cornwall this weekend and seven Cornish cars hosted a run for them today. We took them on the drive we did back in the Spring as our Easter Egg Run. Unfortunately the weather was against us this morning as we all gathered in the rain at Treasure Park near Redruth ...

We made our way along the North Coast to Hayle and then crossed the county until we reached Marazion where we had a stop for coffee at the car park by Jordans Cafe ...

Luckily it had stopped raining by now so I got a shot of St Michaels Mount complete with passing seagull!

After a short break we made our way towards Penzance and then crossed back over to the North Coast again and headed for St Ives. After arriving at the Tyringham Arms which was the scheduled lunch stop, we found out that they were not expecting us just yet so Mike and Sharon led us on a jaunt into St Ives itself where we brought the town to a standstill as ten of us drove in convoy through the narrow streets! Great!

A bit crooked but snapped out of the window ...

Along the seafront ...

Past the Tate ...

It was then back to the pub for a carvery lunch, a good chinwag with the fivers and then back to our car ...

and home to see Hamish.
