Re: How many locals in the village

How do you define Real Local?
Does it count if a family lived there (and Trevalga, Boscastle etc) for about 500 years, then a gap of about 40 years, then comes back??
This is real so would be interested in replies!
Looking forward to the move

Re: Re: How many locals in the village

That's just like me, although I've been here since 2000, and my relatives are all buried locally, yet I still don't feel local despite that fact that I feel passionately about this area. I guess it is all about nature versus nurture in some cases, being Cornish is a very cultural thing it is something that cannot be acquired it is inbred and sadly I don't think I will ever be considered local despite wanting that distinction very badly.
I hope you have a different experience and from me, welcome back!
Best wishes
