Pigs in blankets? No Ash Chin who starts the #Helston Town Band #FloraDay with his big base drum needs the protection from blisters. He will be walking 15 miles in all today, accompanying all the dances.@BBCCornwall

The Old OSS band are out of the Golden Lion, luring out the Red OSS #obbyoss #PadstowMayDay @BBCCornwall

Barry West, #cornish historian and Barry McCann wouldn’t miss #ObbyOss for the world. Learning about two mounted horses on top of the shops opposite the Institute and Sycamore associated with love, fertility and war @BBCCornwall @ChurchfieldJE

Doug Martyn is Master of Ceremonies for Blue Ribbon OSS #Obbyoss this Mayday who starts the accordions and drums before the OSS departs the Institute @BBCCornwall @ChurchfieldJE

[Christine Butler @CButlerBBC]

In the early morning sunshine, #Padstow Institute looks calm and serene…but wait until the Blue Oss departs this spot at 10am and the fun really starts. #ObbyOss @BBCCornwall @ChurchfieldJE

Driving home for Christmas? @EnvAgency says this road will open today #Par. The road has been closed since 11th September for flood defence work for the community but traders like Richard Doormand say they’ve lost business @BBCCornwall @ChurchfieldJE

Pudsey’s girls from Grampound Road School were so excited after swimming to meet the big bear himself #PolkythLeisureCentre #StAustell What would #BBCCIN be like without our furry friend? @BBCCornwall

[Christine Butler @CButlerBBC]

[Christine Butler @CButlerBBC]

Children at #GoohavernSchool had their lessons interrupted this morning as #Pudsey joined them in their studies. He did knock over the pens! @BBCCornwall @ChurchfieldJE

[Christine Butler @CButlerBBC]

It’s that time of year again! Whoop whoop! #Pudsey made a surprise visit at #GoonhavernSchool this morning to help children fill in Pudsey,s face on the playground @BBCCornwall @ChurchfieldJE

[Christine Butler @CButlerBBC]

What view does your child have from the playground in #Cornwall? The #RiverLerryn near #Lostwithiel is overlooked by children at Lerryn C of E Primary. £32,000 has been raised by supporters to pay for a second teacher @BBCCornwall @ChurchfieldJE

I thought #StormCiaran was easing #Newquay #Fistral but it is NOT! Apologies for shaky hand @BBCCornwall @ChurchfieldJE
