Thread Name: Cadgwith Anthem - what's that flower?
Subject: RE: Cadgwith Anthem - what's that flower?
We visitied Cadgwith and their Tuesday folk club last month.
I had been warned that visitors who take 10 a wayyys have to buy a round for the pub so was prepared only to do 8 as Snuffy suggests.
As we approached the pub there was a thatched cottage with roses around one side of the door and lillies around the other, reading the previous posts and suggestions that might be a rhodedendron in the front of my picture.
I asked them to sing the Anthem and they could not find anybody who knew it!!!!!!! (yes that type of 'folk' club').
They said the fisherman's choir sing it and they have the pub on Fridays if you are planning to go.
I was very disappointed but the Cornish folk redeemed themselves by singing it for me in Bodmin - they do sing Beauty of Cashmere - I thought it should have been Cadwith too, and only 8 for the aways.
