There was a change in the layout of the main restaurant so we had to unplug the computers and tills and move them to different locations in the restaurant to make it easier for visitors to use. Once we had moved all the computers, we had to set them back up how they were before we moved them. I enjoyed this as I learnt new skills and I worked with a great bunch of people. Royal Inn, Waiter August 2012 – July 2014 I experienced the role of a Kitchen Porter, after this my main role as a waiter entailed taking bookings for the restaurant and accommodation, table service including taking food and drink orders, money handling, use of tills and exceeding customers’ expectations.

  • Guided Walking at Fowey
    Guided Walking at Fowey Holiday Overview Fowey is a picturesque little town set on an ancient natural deep water harbour and has been an active port dating back to the 5th century used by missionary saints and seagoing traders to travel the world. Fishing has always been an important industry but in the past smugglers and pirates boosted the local economy too. Away from the River Fowey the coast path opens out to provide stunning walks with dramatic sea cliffs, amazing beaches and hidden coves where smugglers would land their booty. Fowey also has a rich literary history being the home to Daphne Du Maurier famed for “Jamaica Inn” and “Rebecca” and of course Kenneth Graham who spent so much time here “messing around in boats” used it as his inspiration for “ Wind in the Willows”. In more recent times the Fowey area also featured in the hit TV series P oldark .

  • Case Study 5.3 – Polperro to Penzance, Cornwall
    Case Study 5.3 – Polperro to Penzance, Cornwall 1. Location This case study examines the role that art and photographic images can fulfil in supporting understanding of coastal change affecting some of Cornwall’s south coast harbours, together with consideration of St Michael’s Mount, Mount’s Bay near Penzance. 2. Why was the Case Study Site selected? Cornwall’s historic ports and harbours have fulfilled a vital role for centuries in support of the local economy through the fishing and mining industries in particular and, more recently, tourism. Their physical location in the narrow and steep coastal zone give the Cornish harbours a unique character, which is recognised as a key component of Cornwall’s historic environment and heritage (Johns & Fleming, 20161). Many of the harbours and their protective walls have been in existence for hundreds of years and this illustrates their resilience but also their vulnerability in the face of potentially increasing storminess and unsettled weather patterns. The case studies examine, over time, how artists have depicted the harbour structures and the changes that can be observed through the artworks over the last 200 years. At the western end of this study site, St Michael’s Mount is one of Cornwall’s most famous landmarks. During the severe winter storms of 2013/14, the causeway leading from Marazion out to the Island was seriously damaged. Risk are posed to the causeway in the future as a result of sea level rise and changes in weather patterns. Between Long Rock and Wherry Town a well-preserved fossil forest was uncovered during the storms in January and February 2014.
