    St Austell 1 Buckland Athletic 3
    St Austell celebrated the first floodlit fixture at Poltair Park on Friday evening by attracting a record-breaking crowd of 556 - but champions Buckland were too bright for them on the pitch as they powered to an impressive victory.

  • This is Cornwall: Export drive for Westcountry's top food
    Ministers have launched a campaign to get the growing middle classes in China and India consuming quality Westcountry food and drink.

    The Government is eyeing the untapped economic potential of exporting to large and increasingly well-off populations, particularly in so-called "BRIC" nations: Brazil, Russia, India and China.

    A successful push could be highly lucrative for the region's vital food and drink sector as the UK currently sells more to Belgium than it does to all four BRIC countries – and Mexico – combined.

    All the heroic deeds of the D-Day battles fought 68 years ago earned a place of honour in the history books – but one part of the Allied invasion which has always had pride of place both in military annals and war films actually had its roots in a Cornish seaside town.

    Now the Castle Heritage Centre at Bude is creating a series of new displays focussing on the famous assault carried out by the Second Battalion US Rangers – and staff are looking for memorabilia associated with the American troops and their short but memorable time in Cornwall.

  • This is Cornwall: Sun sets on bid to move UK clocks forward
    The Government will not allow any more time to debate a Bill on moving UK time forward by an hour because the current version will never be law, the Commons was told yesterday. Leader of the House Sir George Young rebuffed calls from all sides of the Commons to give the Daylight Saving Bill the chance to make further progress.

    Stunned community leaders are to seek urgent talks with the operators of a Penzance to Isles of Scilly helicopter service, which is set to move its mainland base permanently to Newquay.

    Mr George said he was upbeat that BIH would stay in the Penzance area.
