The pleasant lounge of the King's Arms, Paul

Nice to know he was a serene assassin!

I didn't know that - what an interesting piece of local history! Thanks for that, tpp!

Thank Jim Hosking, local historian, and his book about 'People and Places in Paul Parish'. By the way, I have learned from him more about the 'Ring and Thimble' monuments outside Gwavas by the turn off to Paul, and from a local book on Mousehole and Newlyn, launched only on Saturday. It seems an eccentric, John Price, created these follies, the first because a golden ring was found near there in 1781, and is now in some museum, and secondly, the 'thimble' represents a sugar lump because he was an owner of a sugar plantation and slaves in Jamaica. Now's the time to look back at the my pic of such and see what Treeve had to say.

Very interesting tpp. I see you have named it the pleasant lounge. Is that down to the fact that missp and myself frequent there? I must add that the new landlady has made it very pleasant and the 'Tribute' is superb.

Yes, the landlady was very helpful to us as we had a littl'un with us.

Very nice of you to take Halfhidden with you tpp. He needs to get out now and again.
