Now for the past 4 years i have worked at Dobwalls theme park.

Over the winter the park has invested in some brand new signs, clearly stating the rules.

Minimum Height and Minimum age 5.

When a chalrey ass 3 year old comes up and think he can drive a little kart its my job to tell the dumb parent to READ THE F ING SIGN

He'll 5 next month.

Come back next month, ya dunce. Nah inbred dim dunce

That's Cornwall for you. There's no such thing as maths in their schools, it's just farming lessons.

I don't remember ever having a lesson in Farming..as for Maths we did get taught...I had a pirate for a teacher argh...there be a whale.

As for the whole holiday makers it's true there morons. Have to spend ages explaining how a petrol pump works and how I won't release fuel if there waving the damn thing in the air.
Also not being able to read simple local names that are dead obvious and calling them by some random name that has not relevants to the spelling of the word.

Am I the only non-Cornish person who always knew it was 'true-row'?

I read it as true row. But I didn't know it existed till I came here.

I'm just thick. I have 5 heads Morals, one for learning stuff(doesn't work so well), one for eating, one for trying to figure out the meaning of life, one for commiting hideous murders and one to erm, what was it, oh yeah, remember stuff.

Why is it hard people don't go round get Reading confused and saying things like the Reading Festival thinking people are going to a big book lovers convention.

I always thought it was pronounced Trer-row. It's a bit like the surnames Featherstonehall and Saint-John. 20 points if you can pronounce either of them correctly.

You pick up 20 points for Saint-John.

Needless to say Featherstonehall isn't pronounced 'Sausages'.

That would seem to indicate those people just can't spell and should spell it more the way it's said.

It's pronounced 'Fathersham' for some reason. That's the gentry for you.

Good to know, thanks!
