    I struggle with the concept of Foie Gras particularly if dispensed from a mortar gun.

    Foie Gras, or is that the other way around.

    ST, I dread to think where your going with that comment !

    Don't they force feed geese to make it.
    Never tried it, but that plastic covered one from my favourite supermarket is ok, very little waste :wink:

    If this beast comes at me again it is for the pot.

    Ah, sorry, That was far too good for me. For some reason I just defaulted to the dark side.
    btw. think you may need to join an ornithological group that's a swan and he looks a bit p****d, hope you were not really the photographer !
    Is that Portreath ?

    A swan is a goose by any other name when it comes to cooking it.
    It got closer, and angrier, probably wondering where all the sea had gone as it was a very low tide, why I was out there.
    Is Porthleven. Like Portreath without the smell, or the wiredos, bad coffee, brown river flowing across the beach, very steep hill, barrier on carpark, amusement arcade, oh and did I mention the smell.

    I really hope that was taken with a very long telephoto. Ah, yes getting my Ports muddled up. Re. similarity of cooking swan or goose watch out for a visit from the royal household heavies.

    Taken with a small Sony Cybershot at the widest angle there was. It was trying to bite me, but my cat like reactions outfoxed it.
    Strange though, less threatening than the parents of small children who who come into your field of view, after you have spent 20 minutes setting up a shot:devil:
    That happened at Portreath, was a smelly day as well, usually the kind of day that the overprotective parents keep there kids away from the beach, luckily I have a certificate to say that I am OK to be around small children and vulnerable adults, I keep it under the Council badge.
    Have I mentioned how much it can smell in Portreath :wink:

    That smell in Portreath, have you not figured out why it's always there at the same time as you? :jumping:

    Ah, correlation does not always indicate causation. But doesn't the "always" imply the odd exception? :peace:

    :flowers:

    A very good point, and very valid. Well done.
    But it is most likely the sewer that flows into the place, flows down the valley from Redruth, turns left at the Porthtowan turning at Cambrose, under the bridge at Bridge (for some reason missing Illogan; pronounced i'lluggan, Cornish: Egloshal) and then dumps its load somewhere near the old railway yard.
    Even the local Cornish Magazine had a picture of Portreath on it with the caption 'Taste the Spray'. :pirate:

    ST, not totally surprised at the parents reaction considering the alarming vision of an amalgamation of a cat/fox wielding a Cybershot in battle with a swan.
