On a visit to Truro cathedral in the mid 80’s the organist was just packing up as we entered the cathedral. My then girlfriend (now wife) and myself were the only people in there other than the organist and an American tourist. The American guy said he would make a substantial donation to the cathedral if the organist would play Toccata and Fugue in D minor for him on the organ. He promptly wrote out a cheque (I don’t know the amount) and we got to listen to this great piece of music in the empty cathedral, which was a spine tingling moment.

Mark 1.15 15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel. 2 Peter 3:9 The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance. Hebrews 11:6 6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him. Jesus
The modern day "shop of curiosities" has to be "trago mills" which is just up the road. It's a huge shop spanning multiple buildings that contains almost anything you can imagine from carpets and light fixtures to chopping boards, cuddly toys, hunting knives, mechanics tools, plywood, plumbing, bedding, books, games, food, clothes etc etc... literally anything you can think of!
I can’t believe you did a whole bit on little old Penryn! I’ve lived and worked here for 24 years and I’ve watched just about every video you’ve made. I never thought I’d see Penryn on the big screen! 😄 Do you announce where you’re going to be anywhere beforehand? I’d of bought you a coffee and a pasty as a thanks for hours of entertainment if I knew you were here 👍🏻
@@RichardWatt But very true! Jon is talented 😊 I noticed recently the Bots are saying much nicer comments that are true rather than a load of rubbish. I liked your comment so pressed the button to show I liked it. 👉
My wife and I visited the Glynn Valley store on my birthday (after visiting Bodmin & Wenford) and we spent about an hour laughing at the museum of stock that I'm pretty sure was there fifteen years or so ago!
Being a Truro boy, I love where I live. I love the amount of history we have in the area. Why not try a Philps pasty. One of the best in the county, but you do find households which make them for their families.
"...if not that then Aliens..." . Cornwall, apart from having its own language, also plays up on its seafaring past and independent suppliers of tax free imported goods. If you like that sort of thing, there is also the impressive Lanhydrock House.
Am Cornish so I am bit confused over the route taken, versus the narrative most important for a video format, but am glad you enjoyed my area passing through. Interesting to see what highlights remain in the final section of Cornwall.
🤔I was confused by Jon repeatedly saying the Cornish have a Foul Moulth, yet there was hardly any as YT calls them Swear Words/Bleeping... or as we Aussies call them F^#KIN" Words 🤷♂
An unusual feature of Truro Cathedral is that it incorporates a pre-existing parish church. You can see this at the front left at 5:10 of the video - it’s the bit with the six double windows
There could’ve been, Falmouth Bay was a major holding area for the D-Day landings but not really a Shenanigans fact given that it doesn’t have a something that was bombed or repurposed - although the Docks were regularly bombed.
AS, I walk my dog every day in the woods you're stood in at 2:42 - Can't believe I didn't spot you or I'd have invited you down to the Barrel for a pint! By the way - Devoran is pronounced "Dev-ruhn" - like Devon, but with an added R!
I have been to the Eden Project before. It’s such a marvellous place to visit and it’s so hot inside as well. I do like Cornwall and there’s lots of amazing places to visit whilst in Cornwall.
Brilliant, as usual. I think the steam engine in the mine pump house was used primarily to pump water out of the mines. It may also have been used to lift the stone...
Yes his “satire” will definitely endear him to the locals! By the By, most of the abandoned engine houses were employed in pumping water from the underground workings using a beam engine, ore was winched to the surface by horse power in a “Kibble” or bucket.
My first trip back to the UK in 12 years was me visiting my parents (live near London) and taking a short break at the Eden Project. Couldn’t understand the fuss I would rather have had a 1923 Michelin guidebook and use that to investigate, explore and discover Cornwall. Jon, where were you last year!
Wonderful route which I have dallied along many times, If you proffer the correct coinage and ask nicely, St Austell brewery will post 12 bottle of their tasty "Proper Black". I did that and had a bottle of the great tonic ready for this particular episode. Cheers
Under that little bridge under the road runs 4 ducts carrying the entire UK internet traffic, it's called the GTN Ring, you can see a series of 4 manhole covers along that road up to tresillian. it carries the data around the many communications hubs and undersea cable landing stations across Cornwall. check out The Secrets Of Cornwall for more!
@@davidedwards4125 it's a YT video on Mark's channel from quite a few years ago. Very interesting and worth a watch. Hopefully there's a part 2 in the works.
If in doubt and you see a structure that you can not understand how it was built - the answer is always going to be Aliens! Another great trip - Cheers John. PS: Will you be doing your Christmas Shopping at a Service Station this year?
St Austell is a shadow of its former self. When the clay industry was much bigger (profitable) there was a relatively decent amount of money flowing through the town with a “local” department store “Broads”, “Morgan’s” a large furniture shop, a pretty big Woolies and was home to the main “Kelly’s” cafe - the company name that’s now known nationwide for their Cornish Ice Cream. I don’t think it’s still held by the Kelly family. (There was even an “International” supermarket if you’re old enough) Best thing in St Austell was The Thin End, a cafe that I’ve still yet to find an adequate replacement for, although you can go down to Pentewan’s Little Bay cafe and get some of the same cakes. To give you an idea of how bad things have got, one firm of solicitors closed their branch office when the lease came up because they didn’t like the idea of their clients encountering the unsavoury types and the syringes that they were leaving around the nearby church area.
Hello, from just down the road. Another curiosity of Truro cathedral is that it is bent. About 2/3 of the way towards the east end it veers to the left. It’s not something you would notice unless it’s pointed out. Which I’ve just done Albeit a bit late But there you are It’s not like you’re going to pop back, look and say “oh yeah, Pete was right” Well, I wouldn’t. Ithankewe.
Nice, 43 didn't disappoint. You missed another obelisk in Falmouth. And yep, we dig a lot of holes down ere. Not sure you could say St Aufull's doing well for it's self, crackhead central and dying on it's arse. Still, good but weird to see you so close to where I am and your take on the interesting bits.
Spent many family holidays in the 70s and 80s around the area. Shout out to the village of Gweek for its great name and the excellent open air Mynack Theatre down the coast a bit further.
John, just to let you know that when you were doing your piece to camera in Penryn you were standing ontop of a turd tank. All of Penryn's effluent is pumped to the sewage works in falmouth from that tank.
I have been to St. Austell and the Eden Project building. I had fond memories of going to the Eden Project and I like how the dome looks like from the outside. The only places I haven’t been to in Cornwall is Falmouth, Penzance and Par. But I have been to Truro, Newquay, Bure and Wadebridge.
Yep. The illustration is of the Hot Lode - this is where Professor Miller discovered Lithium in the geothermal water in 1864. United Downs is one of Cornish Lithium’s sites. They’re also involved in the hard rock mining of granites in the St Austell area.
The drive between Pendennis and St. Mawes castle visible a short distance across the bay, explains why they were built ... it's 17 miles and takes an hour ...
it could either be nice garden ornament or aliens... yep only those two no other things big granite pillar can be .) sometimes John makes a funny in most unexpected manner and that just gets me. i am probably quite the sucker for that type of delivery as well.
Been to Eden Project twice when I was a kid. Cool place, much prefer to walk around Looe or Polperro. I think there was an indoor market in or near St Austell too. I found a copy of the PS2 game State of Emergency there and brought it home after my holiday there ended. Actually I think it wasn't that far from St. Austell's ASDA store, if it's still there.

‘Ale & Cake Mine’! I wouldn’t be surprised if it was named after someone’s lunch one afternoon given how this country has wacky and random names for a lot of places!!
It actually does sink into the sea by a few centimetres every day. But then we rise back up again. The sea weighs so much the tides literally push us down.
@@Smoneey I knew all this before his video, and had actually make a pilgrimage there! In aviation, the Q code for sea level pressure is QNH - reportedly derived from Newlyn Harbour, though this is disputed if you ask officially.

Good afternoon John 😊⚓️👍🧲
We were in Falmouth in June, its a nice town.
Your getting closer and closer to where I live. :D never been to eden project tho been past it hundreds of times. A James bond was partly filmed there
Absolutely brilliant
The drive between Pendennis and St. Mawes castle visible a short distance across the bay, explains why they were built ...
it's 17 miles and takes an hour ...
As a lad from Falmouth, people who go to St Mawes only ever use the ferry
How do you go from Falmouth to St Austell and not have a look at King harry ferry and the river Fal. It's a car ferry so it's relevant.

16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved. 18 He that believeth on him is not condemned: but he that believeth not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God. 19 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. 20 For every one that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. 21 But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.
Mark 1.15
15 And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.
2 Peter 3:9
The Lord is not slack concerning his promise, as some men count slackness; but is longsuffering to us-ward, not willing that any should perish, but that all should come to repentance.
Hebrews 11:6
6 But without faith it is impossible to please him: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.
Jesus
The ale and cake mine reminds me of another mine near Bonsall in Derbyshire, called Beans and Bacon. Sadly, when i went there was neither 😢
When you were heading to Gwennap I was sure we were about to see some drone footage of Gwennap Pit… next time 😜
‘Ale & Cake Mine’! I wouldn’t be surprised if it was named after someone’s lunch one afternoon given how this country has wacky and random names for a lot of places!!
It's amazing Cornwall hasn't sunk into the sea with all the holes they kept drilling into it... :P
It actually does sink into the sea by a few centimetres every day. But then we rise back up again. The sea weighs so much the tides literally push us down.
@@Smoneey It's a good job sea level is measured at Newlyn then.
@@paulsengupta971 I see we have good taste in Tom Scott videos
@@Smoneey I knew all this before his video, and had actually make a pilgrimage there! In aviation, the Q code for sea level pressure is QNH - reportedly derived from Newlyn Harbour, though this is disputed if you ask officially.
Hello Jon, how the devil ate you, have you had a good week? Finally you're in my neck of the woods 🎉
St Mawes castle is directly opposite Pendennis and uses a very similar design.
"Arse end of England"...Jon fails yet another audition for the Cornwall Tourist board ...😂
His talent would be wasted on such a MINOR role, Jon is fast becoming a National Treasure.
