On Monday our instagram account was hacked and then deleted. We received a ransom note to recover it; obviously we couldn't and wouldn't pay, and therefore lost thousands of followers. Meta support was useless. But we're BACK with a new account: @littletollerbooks. Can you follow us there and share?

As a Cornishman, I am very proud of my heritage and today is St Piranβs Day, the patron saint of Cornwall. Here is a short clip of our anthem, Trelawney, sung by Truro Male Voice Choir. Enjoy!

My successful bid from @childreninread.bsky.social The Secret Shore by @lizfenwick.bsky.social was so descriptive; it played out in my head like an old black & white war movie. I loved the characters & the many interesting historical facts throughout added to the story. A throughly enjoyable read!
