Soon we will need to choose representatives to send to London to be our Members of Parliament. Sadly, there is no Cornish Assembly, not yet. What do we need? What kind of candidate should we see? We want somebody (man or woman) selfless, untiring, clever and wise, neither fool nor scoundrel, kind and amiable. Is that too much? And who will be the best Prime Minister? Who would be good for Cornwall?

Julia McKenzie made a lot of beautiful little birds out of maps - folded pages like Japanese origami. But what kind of bird are they? And why are they significant? They are swallows - considered good luck by sailors, because of showing that land is near. (A swallow is never seen in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean.) She painted swallows, too, with maps on their bellies, forked tails and red throats. I love this exhibition.

T hen Stephen married Mary, Mehitabel's younger sister.  So, Mary was Calvin's aunt and his stepmother. Stephen and Mary had a son, Henry. That son was Calvin's half-brother. But as the aunt's son was he also Calvin's cousin?
