Welcome www.whatsoncornwall.co.uk

October people. October! Weren’t we looking forward to summer just a couple of weeks ago? Well, never mind, October in Cornwall is a wonderful month; warm seas, fewer people, eclectic weather, changing landscapes... and so much stuff to do. Of course it’s Halloween at the end of the month, and there’s a huge range of ways to celebrate this. See our Halloween special on page 8 for spooky suggestions and eerie events.

Please remember to mention What’s on Cornwall when booking events or responding to adverts.

So, enjoy the changing season, dig out your jumpers and boots, and let’s get snuggled up with good films, great live music, excellent food and drink and a whole host of art and theatre delights to keep us warm.

A police interrogation room. A woman has been detained for questioning after her boss is found dead in suspicious circumstances. In a room down the hall, her colleague also awaits an interview. Just routine questions. Just routine. But what if the monotony of routine was responsible for pushing one of them over the edge? After all, perhaps it’s not unusual for employees of an adhesive supply company to feel a little… stuck. ***** “As engaging as it is extraordinary” West Briton Booking: 01726 879 500 www.crbo.co.uk
