Another visitor attraction in Cornwall @FlambardsUK has announced it is to close with immediate effect with those in charge blaming ‘rising costs and a steady decline in visitor numbers’. Dairyland shut for good yesterday, more on @itvwestcountry later.
It’s taken a few months, but I really enjoyed producing this feature for @ITVX / @itvwestcountry

ALT Dear Customers,
We’d like to apologise to customers who have been experiencing lower water pressure or a loss of supply this morning.
Our emergency team have been on site, working hard to isolate the burst water main and restore most customer supplies. Some customers may continue to experience fluctuations to their supply whilst the water pressure returns and builds up in the network.
We will continue to provide further updates and thank you for your continued patience.
Need a bit of extra help?
If you, or someone in your house, has a medical condition that requires constant access to a water supply, or you would find it difficult to reach an alternative supply during a mains interruption, then sign up to our Priority Services Register by calling 0344 346 2020. Our Priority Services are free, and you don’t need to be the bill payer to register.
🚧🚱IN YOUR AREA – TR1 - TR16🚱🚧
Engineers are currently on site working hard to repair the burst main and we apologise for the inconvenience this has caused. When your supply is restored, you may experience discolouration, please run your tap until the discolouration clears.
ALT Emergency works in your area!
If you have a medical condition, meaning you need constant access to water, please join our Priority Service Register today.
Register online or call 0344 346 1010.
🎉We're open to traffic!🥳
🚗Just before 6am this morning, the first cars made their way along the newly-opened A30 dual carriageway between Chiverton & Carland Cross

As some @itvwestcountry followers may have noticed… I am really very pregnant now! This is my last working day before maternity leave begins. I’ve had a fab send off from my brilliant team & will of course miss covering Cornwall, AKA the best patch in the world, until my return.
