    Was in Meva the other week getting our fresh fish. Walk these streets and the harbour, it’s only up the road from me. Coastal towns here are beautiful.

    Mevagissey, a typical Cornish village like Fowey with narrow streets but at least you can drive through unlike Polperro where there is no way through only the harbour.

    Looks like it was a nice ralaxing drive. Roads are to narrow for my liking, but hey, I'm from Canada...lol

      Diefers Dashcam UK I hope not, I tried taking the family there last year but unfortunately the heavens opened up so we abandoned it.
      Many happy memories visiting there with my parents, I'd like to keep up the tradition with my own brood.

    Narrow streets, I wonder how a fire engine would get through, but is a through route unlike Polperro.

    • @Dieferdan
      @Dieferdan  6 лет назад +1

      Thank you, yeah it's a V8 beast haha. I decided to put music over the video as I had the AC blowing and that's all you could hear. I usually have the windows open as you can hear the burble of the V8 resonate around the tiny streets :D

    • @silkiebreeder
      @silkiebreeder 6 лет назад +1

      I have a V8 Chevy pick up i dont think it would fit down half of those roads But lets face it old town Mevagissey wasnt really intended for cars Nor was most of Cornwall's fishing villages come to that

    Hello again, I had a call today on East Cliff Road in Looe (go Google it) - you would never, ever, get up there in your wagon!

  • @leplessis8179
    @leplessis8179 6 лет назад

    You should have tried driving it today: wall to wall dead-head and overweight pedestrians blocking all the streets. Aargh, when summer comes, I hate it.

    • @Dieferdan
      @Dieferdan  6 лет назад

      It was bloody busy today with Grockles! Dead heads with bloody dogs too! Which is why I usually only come down out of season. I almost moved here a few years ago but it's the bloody tourists that do my head in!!!

    • @leplessis8179
      @leplessis8179 6 лет назад

      Diefers, hello, I had to do Looe; Polperro; and then Mevagissy, all in one day, before needing a lie-down dark room afterwards.- thank goodness St Ives was missing from the schedule (my neighbour reported that it was 'full').Oh well, roll on next winter and the new rugby season, when everyone you get to meet is 'proper Cornish' and does not have a 50" waist.

    • @Dieferdan
      @Dieferdan  6 лет назад +1

      Oh boy, I'm guessing you're a delivery driver then? Van or truck?! Like I said, I nearly moved down here a few years ago when my aunt offered to put me up in Gorran. Was going to drive for the clay pits but, it's just the summer season that put me off :/ I thought driving in London (for 11 years) was bad lol

      Dief, hello again, We buy and sell antiques, so do a 'run' to different areas each month - the old folks are dying out so need to clear their treasures, and because television has given such a false impression of how the Trade really works they prefer to deal with us - as the real 'experts'. Better prices, instant cash, and no commission to pay.
