Welcome to edition 2.5 of
englandsouthwest.com. In these pages, you can learn more about the
well-loved Gilbert & Sullivan operetta, The Pirates of Penzance.
See the Culture Pages.
You can move forward several
generations from that turn-of-the-century confection, and learn a bit
about British children's literature, and the magical work of Kenneth
Grahame. See the History & Historic
Sites pages.
See what an ex-pat living in Britain
has to say about a British favorite. See Alana Muir's column on Mushy
Peas on the Food & Drink pages.
Halloween is coming, and so is new column about Daphne
du Maurier, one of England's spookiest mystery writers.
With the autumn not far off, the Gardening and Nature offer something that fits
nowhere else: a chance to learn to drive a steamlocomotive…(maybe we
should add a Science and Industry page!)
See the Art and
Architecture pages for an article about a fantastic and unique
house that has much to do with the aforementioned Pirates of Penzance.
This is a holdover from last time, but with new information.
The Irish Link
offers information about Cornish, a Celtic tongue once as dead as Irish
once was, but on the rise, and Cornish people, as well.
Finally, we offer a double dose of Len Chester's Around Tavistock to
charm you with its wit and wisdom, and some great pix, too.
