Tuesday, 2nd July
Descans tavas Kernôwek ha cowl losow kegin en Lily's – jorna da! Kerdh hir dhe'n savla kyttrin (ha tre) heb galar garr – jorna da! Gwelyow teg oll adro: foon en gwelyow gora melyn, cawl glas arves dhe vos trehys (ma tus e'n gwel solabres), flourys purpur – viaj plesont. Bes rag fra ma gwelyow leun a flourys purpur? Ellen nei aga debry? Ens erbys rag fittya boos? A vedh anjei sehys ha ûsyes rag confetti (rag demedhyansow) po pot pourri? Ewa lavender rag dowr perfûmys? Ma shoppa en Porth Ia gen sebon lavender wheg. Thew an gwelyow re bell dhe vos gwelys der vaner da. An grüg (nekek/kekezza/basom) ew purpur bes nei a wel hedna ow tevy war rosyow (tir garow).
A Cornish language lesson and vegetable soup in Lily's – a good day! A long walk to the bus stop (and home) without leg pain – a good day! Beautiful fields all around: new mown hay in yellow hayfields, green kale ready to be cut (there are men in the field already), purple flowers – a pleasant journey. But why are there fields full of purple flowers? Can we eat them? Are they herbs for cooking? Will they be dried and used for confetti (for weddings) or pot pourri? Is it lavender for perfume? There is a shop in St Ives with sweet lavender soap. The fields are too distant to be seen properly. The heather is purple but we see that growing on heathlands (rough land).
