Last Friday, it was grey and raining in Cornwall. In the true spirit of all the best British summer festivals and events, whilst the rest of the country enjoyed glorious sunshine and temperatures in the twenties, the weather reverted to winter down here just as we prepared to welcome visitors to our first “Boards, Bangers and Beers” open evening at the workshop. Friday afternoon was a busy one as we made final preparations for a fully booked “build-your-own” surfboard course starting on the Monday morning (it’s just finished and we have three lovely new surfboards on their way to the laminators) and tried to tidy and sweep up the workshop ready for visitors. We strung up some lights, set the projector up on the bed of the bandsaw and hurried out to find paper cups to serve beer in.
