A couple of years ago Mum and Dad realised a long held dream and retired to St Ives, Cornwall. While it's not always easy having them 400 miles way, I couldn't be happier for them. I do miss them but everyday they wake up in a dream. It's lovely for them.
Having a free holiday home overlooking the beach isn't bad for me and Mrs NP either..
St Ives is one of my most favourite places EVER.
I know I sound like some blonde, L.A. bimbo but I am so jealous - especially with that photo. Talk about reminding people what life is all about.

I miss the sea. I really do. It's the thing I miss most about the UK.

I hope you mean looking at it - because you sure as hell can't mean being in it Marcus!

So you're not a surfer then Marcus?

I grew up on the Solent NP.

Funny Marcus, I'm in the UK and it's the thing I miss most about Australia. That said, this place looks idyllic, lucky you NP. Love the recipes too by the way.
