From: WikiPedia In 2008, Joy a friend of ours and one of Sue's yoga students from birmingham came up for a break with us, and of course one of the places we went round was St. Ives. When I was getting better from my heart operation, Sue used to enjoy bringing me here for a gentle walk around the lake before she would let me have my reward of going in the cafe.
