In an Internet Cafe in Truro, waiting for a bus. Have just stumbled off the Sleeper from London. Ok, so a 14.5 hour journey from Derby to a remote village on the North Cornwall Coast is excessive in this day-and-age, but the sheer novelty of getting the bulk of the journey done while asleep is worth it.
And the Newquay to Padstow bus is likely to be a double-decker. So at last I'll be able to see the views - higher than the hedgerows. Like switching from recumbent to conventional in the rest of the country.
And my Brompton-spotting count is +1. A green one alighted the sleeper day coaches at Truro.
