Hi Carol

If it's ok with Sue I'll answer since we're neighbours...... quite sunny here

Question for you Carol....... what's do you think about all this independence for Cornwall stuff that's in the papers of late

well, its all been blown out of proportion really, I've never come across any die hard cornish vigilantes, there is definately a strong sense of unity here, we did after all used to be a different country to the rest of england and some nutters are desperate to keep that alive especially as birth rate in cornwall has gone down (most are born in devon).
Its nice at times like when Cornwall play at twickers and the bridge from my town that crosses the Kensey (ie is the border between devon and cornwall) has a massive sign up that says 'could the last one out please close the gate'

so what's the nicest to visit, Cornwall or Devon? Always really fancied going down there on holiday but the long drive has always put me off...... but we will one day soon..... looks a lovely place to go on your hols. Closest we got was Centre Parcs at Longleat

really depends what you want from a holiday, north devon v good for surfing and quaint little towns, south devon v pretty around exmouth area, lots of history to discover in plymouth. North cornwall again for surfing while the south side has the prettier beaches.
Its very easy to do a real round tour of both in a couple of weeks, personally I'd recommend Exeter, exmouth, Plymouth, dartmoor, Looe, Mevagissey, falmouth, Marazion, St Ives, bodmin moor, Padstow, Boscastle, Bude, woollacombe. which would be a sort of coastal journey.
If you are venturing down this way let me know and i'll send you info.

p.s. we've got beasts at bodmin too, no need for longleat!

beasts!!!!!........... what the panther or the woman folk (obviously not including your good self, before I dig too deep a hole)

Seriously though...... if I need info I'll bare that in mind Carol..... thanks very much
