Rock
Rock in Cornwall, where this photo was taken, is of course one of the UK's premier Red Trouser towns.
Whilst recently on holiday at a caravan park in Cornwall, I visited Rock, my expectations raised by torrid tabloid tales of toffs-gone-wild.
I anticipated the last days of Sodom, with braying up to eleven; what I actually got was a rainy car park, and a stilted conversation with a pensioner in the public toilets (about a cement mixer).
The man clearly has great taste; Salmon pink beyond question. Fequently seen at the corner table in Steins enjoying lobster and Doombar in huge quantities.
LOOK AT ME, I HAVE A HEDGE FUND!
ReplyDeleteIt's not red, it's pink. Makes it worst actually.
ReplyDeletethat's not 'pink'..... it is patently a deep salmon.
