    Tho I'm part Maori and live in far-flung New Zealand, I'm very proud of my Cornish ancestry. ❤❤💯 Thank you for making and sharing these videos.

    I can see your videos are a valuable and educational resource for anyone visiting Cornwall.
    Since I shall be visiting Cornwall next year, I intend using your series of videos to prime me in the ways of the Cornish people and their culture.
    Cheers from Aust

    Interesting to think Camborne was once a boom town that has now fallen on hard times . I lived there from 1973-1984 and even in that time period you could tell that its prosperity was in decline . I left Cornwall in the 1990's , I hear from friends that Camborne is very run down these days . What a shame . Hopefully one day its fortunes will revive .

      Honestly, Camborne has gone very rough,& dangerous these days. I get scared to even walk home in the evenings, especially when I have my little boy with me,& we only go to my sisters who lives up the road from me ❤

    Great grandma was Cornish (never never considered herself English I'm told)...Family were Cornish miners...sailed for Canada and ened up in Michigan save for great grandma herself who married an Irish Canadian in mining business and stayed in ontario. She arrived 1884...

    I did my DNA and I have ancestors from there. My great grandmother is from there Kate Nichols, then she moved to South Africa. I heard that tin from Cornwall was found in King Solomons temple. I now live in Costa Rica, I would love to visit.

    We like to get music from people who live in the area we film, or just Cornwall as a whole. it is an instrumental cover of the Travelling Wilburys song "End Of The Line" recorded in the Spring of 2010 at Cornwall College by:
    Ewan Broom - Bass
    Kev Leatham - Drums
    Nick Croydon - Electric Guitar
    Jack Dale - Acoustic Slide Guitar
