Good God man! Are you expecting relevance in a newsgroup?
Seriously, it's a dreadful pity that there isn't more Cornish cultural
discussion here. And it's a dreadful pity that the "Celtic" loonies feel
it necessary to impose themselves on us.

Same year, but here in Australia (Wollongong, NSW). I do remember my 100%
Cornish grandmother (born at Moonta, SA - Australia's little Cornwall)
doing everything dreckly and talking about her grandmother (born in
Camborne in 1815) who spoke barely recognisable English "Spaek one
together
won' 'e!"
