West Cornwall – Chinook Today

Couldn’t resist showing you guys this extra ordinary shot I took today.

Sitting in a layby I heard the distinctive thwocka thwocka of a Chinook over my car – grabbed my camera, and this wee beastie did a circuit before landing right in front of me – disgorged a number of camoflaged young men (yep, they were all dressed up as Cornish Pasties :dev2: ) then promptly took off, coming straight for me.

Probably. They’re all just grey blobs to me, totally uninteresting to look at.

Did I say West Cornwall? I meant South West Devon/East Cornwall. 😮

Incidentally, the answer to the riddle is: –

I was learning Chinese – I like doing my audio lessons in the car somewhere – :rolleyes: – peaceful!

That would sure take your mind off whatever you were doing in the layby!:D
