People in Cornwall love Celtic art. I spotted a very good design on a van near the seaside. The owners like riding on surfboards, skateboards and snowboards. There are three men with their arms and legs knotted together in the Celtic manner, and their boards by their feet. In a conference there was a sign with three legs – like a curly tripod. The number three is seen again in Cornwall's arms. There are fifteen bezants in a triangle. That was the badge of some Cornish pawn brokers who lent money to King John. The bezants are seen everywhere.
