Sunday

The flag of St Piran flying high over the Church of St Piran & St Michael in Perranuthnoe on the closest Sunday to St Piran's Day on 5th March
 Masses of sand in the water this morning
In a sheltered spot the Three Cornered Leeks (Allium Triquetrum) are in flower

    Very nice picture of the church and churchyard. I wonder if the St. Pirans flag is flown on other occasions.

    I've seen the St Piran's flag flown in May Betty, but although I did a search, couldn't find why - they do of course fly St Georges flag on St Georges Day and the Union Jack on other important days. Quite a few of the local boats fly the St Piran's flag at all times and at any Feast or Festival time everything is black and white ! Sue

    Very similar to Brittany and the Bretagne flag in colour though there is the ermine canton as well. I'll have to wear my Cornish earrings (cross of St Pirran) on Wednesday.
