☀️🍏 SUPER SUNDAY 🍏☀️ Bar open 15:23

Right then, Sunday has arrived and apparently we are continuing our campaign to make cider cheaper than bottled water at an airport.

🍎 THE CIDER MADNESS CONTINUES. 6 PINTS FOR £15. That is still £2.50 a pint, a price last spotted shortly before people started putting polyphonic ringtones on Nokias. And remember, proceeds are helping Jacob and Jenson with their Cornwall Cricket trip to Sri Lanka, so there is actually some wholesome purpose behind this financial lunacy.

A few people have already asked about going bigger. You absolutely can grab as much as you can drink for £30, but this is not Man v Cider. Nobody needs to complete the entire works before Antiques Roadshow. Pace yourselves, enjoy it and retain the ability to identify your own front door later.

⚽ Then at 16:30 we have Arsenal v Chelsea LIVE. North London against West London. Red against blue. Arteta against a Chelsea squad so large I am fairly sure three of them have never actually met.

🍺 Naturally Dartmoor Legend is still brooding majestically on the pumps, Kraken is lurking in the darkness, and Peach Blush remains dangerously good at turning “I’ll only stay for one” into an entirely different sentence.

So get down from 15:23, find somewhere comfortable, investigate the cider situation and settle in for a proper Sunday afternoon of football, nonsense and extremely competitive hydration.

🍻 LIVE THE SUPER SUNDAY DREAM. 🍻

🔥🍏 STUPENDOUS SATURDAY - bar open at 15:01 🍏🔥

RIGHT. HERE WE GO. WE’VE KEPT THIS QUIET LONG ENOUGH.

Today we are launching something completely ridiculous.

6 PINTS OF CIDER FOR £15. Yes. SIX. PINTS. FIFTEEN. QUID.

That is £2.50 a pint, which in 2026 feels less like a promotion and more like somebody has misplaced a decimal point and we have decided to keep schtum.

Here’s the good bit though. proceeds are going towards Jacob and Jenson and their Cornwall Cricket trip to Sri Lanka. So you can sit there feeling incredibly pleased with yourself while drinking cider at a price that appears to have travelled here from 2004.

Buy your token card, work your way through the selection and enjoy the finest combination imaginable: cheap cider and doing something genuinely decent at the same time.

🍺 We have also got Dartmoor Legend on guest ale duty, brooding away like it has just wandered off the moor carrying several secrets and one very good pint.

⚽ Then at 17:30, Premier League football arrives as high flying Hull host wholesale Aston Villa. Hull are currently flying around like someone has strapped a jet engine to a combine harvester, while Villa seem determined to buy enough footballers to start their own parish.

So there it is. The cider offer is LIVE. Six pints. Fifteen pounds. Jacob and Jenson benefit.

Quite frankly, if that does not get you through the door, I may have to start giving out free livestock.

🍻 LIVE THE STUPENDOUS SATURDAY DREAM. 🍻

🔥🏏 FUTURE STARS FRIDAY 🏏🔥 Bar open 17:57

Tonight is a special one as our All Stars and Dynamos Presentation Evening brings another brilliant summer to a close. There will be certificates, medals and enough proud little faces to remind us exactly why these evenings matter. More importantly, there will also be burgers and hotdogs, because nobody has ever successfully framed a certificate and eaten it.

A proper mention has to go to the legendary Paul Mankee (Pac Mank), our All Stars and Dynamos Coordinator, and the fantastic team around him. The hours they put in, usually long before anyone else arrives and long after everyone has gone home, are enormous. What they create is about far more than teaching children how to bat and bowl. They give youngsters confidence, friendships, memories and a genuine connection with the club. These kids are the future of Camborne Cricket Club, and the work Paul and his team do gives that future one hell of a foundation. Massive thanks to every single one of you. 💚🏏

🍺 We also have a Guest Ale arriving tonight. It comes from somewhere around Mid Devon. Dartmoor, perhaps. Apparently, it is something of a Legend. Any guesses? 👀

⚽ At 8pm the Premier League telebox fires up as the Tractor Boys of Ipswich take on Liverpool. Expect agricultural machinery against Scouse engineering. Ipswich will be attempting to plough straight through midfield while Liverpool try to nick the points, the hubcaps and anything else left unattended near the penalty area. 🚜😂

And finally, tonight’s completely fabricated football fact:

Apparently Jürgen Klopp and John Wark once spent an entire Tuesday afternoon in Bury St Edmunds wearing matching red fezzes after mistakenly believing they had entered a Turkish themed five a side tournament. Neither man removed the fez until somebody explained that “Fez Tuesday” was actually the name of the kebab shop next door.

Absolutely none of that happened. Probably.

So get yourselves down. Celebrate our brilliant youngsters, raise a glass to the volunteers, investigate the mysterious Legend, consume something from the grill and watch the weekend come steaming in hotter than a sausage left unattended in the hatch.

🔥🍻 LIVE THE FRIDAY NIGHT DREAM. 🍻🔥

🍻 THURSDAY. BAR OPEN AT 19:02. THAT’LL DO. 🍻

There will be an elderly Euchre regiment in tonight, silently sliding cards around like they’re deciding the future of Western civilisation whilst revolving around table to table, you could be forgiven for thinking it's speed dating in slow motion. Leave them to it. They know the rules.

For everyone else, the brief is simple. Come down, have a pint, talk nonsense and improve Thursday considerably.

👀 There may also be a sneaky little preview of something starting this weekend. No drumroll, no TED Talk, just have a look and pretend you knew about it first.

🍻 LIVE THE THURSDAY DREAM.

🎯🎱 𝐖𝐇𝐄𝐍 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐂𝐑𝐈𝐂𝐊𝐄𝐓 𝐒𝐓𝐎𝐏𝐒, 𝐓𝐇𝐄 𝐑𝐄𝐀𝐋 𝐀𝐓𝐇𝐋𝐄𝐓𝐄𝐒 𝐓𝐀𝐊𝐄 𝐎𝐕𝐄𝐑… 🎱🎯

Last year’s Social Pool and Darts League was genuinely one of the best laughs we had all winter. The teams had a brilliant time, Friday nights were full of good craic, and the competition was just serious enough to make people care far more than they intended to.

So, naturally, we are doing it all again.

The league runs on Friday nights from October until Easter, with December off because even elite athletes need a Christmas break.

🎯 Teams of six
🎱 Best of three matches
🍻 All abilities welcome
😂 Good craic guaranteed
🏆 Sporting excellence very much optional

It does not matter whether you are deadly with a dart, handy with a cue or simply excellent at standing nearby offering completely unwanted advice. If you fancy a laugh and something to look forward to on a Friday night, this is for you.

Already have six players? Get your team entered by sending us a PM or commenting on this post.

Only have a few interested people? Message us anyway and we will see if we can help bring a team together.

Expect great company, questionable tactics, dramatic finishes and at least one person blaming the dartboard, pool table, lighting or local air pressure for their performance.

Last year was fantastic fun and we want this year to be even bigger. Tag your mates, assemble your squad and get involved.

Pool, darts, drinks and proper Friday night craic.

LIVE THE LEAGUE DREAM! 🎯🎱🍻

☔🍷 𝐒𝐎𝐆𝐆𝐘 𝐒𝐀𝐓𝐔𝐑𝐃𝐀𝐘 🍷☔ 𝐁𝐚𝐫 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧 𝟏𝟐:𝟑𝟎

And so we reach the final cricket Saturday of the summer, and naturally Cornwall has decided to mark the occasion by emptying several million gallons of water directly onto Warrior Park. Beautiful timing. Still, what better way to sign off the season than with our very own BBC classic, 𝐋𝐚𝐬𝐭 𝐨𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐦𝐦𝐞𝐫 𝐍𝐢𝐠𝐞, starring three evergreen Camborne stalwarts who, judging by the photograph, have been involved with the club since Bodyline was considered innovative. Nigel Endean leads the Seconds into one final adventure today as St Ives come to Warrior Park, assuming somebody can first locate the square beneath the inland sea currently forming on it.

Fear not though. While outside is wetter than Compo after falling in a canal, inside the bar will be beautifully dry and very capable of whetting considerably more than your appetite. All the usual favourites will be waiting. Corona doing Corona things, Peach Blush refusing to acknowledge that summer is nearly over, Kraken lurking ominously in the corner, Budvar standing by for the serious professionals and, because we are embracing the theme properly, we can categorically confirm it will not be Last of our summer wine and that we will NOT run out of wine should you decide today requires it. 🍷

📺 We have wall to wall sport too, beginning at 𝟏𝟐:𝟑𝟎 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐋𝐢𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐩𝐨𝐨𝐥 𝐯 𝐍𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐡𝐚𝐦 𝐅𝐨𝐫𝐞𝐬𝐭 𝐚𝐭 𝐀𝐧𝐟𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝, before 𝐒𝐩𝐮𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐚𝐤𝐞 𝐨𝐧 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐫𝐬 𝐭𝐨 𝐛𝐞 𝐚𝐧 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐢𝐫𝐞 𝐆𝐞𝐨𝐫𝐝𝐢𝐞 𝐀𝐫𝐦𝐲 𝐟𝐫𝐨𝐦 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐓𝐨𝐨𝐧 𝐚𝐭 𝟓.𝟑𝟎𝐩𝐦. Tottenham have seemingly decided that flirting with relegation was tremendous fun last season but perhaps not something worth repeating, so they have attacked the transfer market like somebody handed them a trolley, a blank cheque and five minutes before closing time. Whether that translates into actual football remains one of the great mysteries of our age. We will also be showing the Springbok - All Blacks game too

So come down, admire the rain from somewhere sensible, support the Seconds if the cricket gods allow it, watch the football, enjoy something cold and raise a glass to what has been one hell of a summer. If it rains we will play BEER PONG!!

☔🍻 LIVE THE SOGGY SATURDAY DREAM. 🍻☔

Last game of the Summer for Nige. One final episode. Let’s make it a belter.

*******UPDATE - ITS BEEN CONFIRMED - SCENARIO TWO UNFORTUNATELY ******

🌦️🍻 FRIDAY: WEATHER DEPENDENT CHAOS 🍻🌦️

Right then. Tonight’s opening hours are being managed by that most reliable of Cornish institutions... the weather.

☀️ SCENARIO ONE: THE SKY SORTS ITSELF OUT
If the rain behaves itself, All Stars and Dynamos are ON and the bar opens at 17:59. Youngsters doing cricket, parents conducting highly professional supervision from within touching distance of liquid refreshment, everyone happy.

🌧️ SCENARIO TWO: CORNWALL DOES CORNWALL
If the heavens open and All Stars and Dynamos gets binned, do not panic. The bar simply opens later at 18:59. Same Friday. Same drinks. Slightly fewer damp children.

So basically, check the sky, check Facebook, check the messages, then check yourself into the bar.

💰 We also have the P2K DRAW tonight, so quite literally be at the bar to win at the bar. Wealth may not arrive, but temporary smugness absolutely could.

⚽ At 8pm, Premier League football returns with Crystal Palace taking on last season’s runners up Man City. A fragile Palace made entirely of crystal against a team assembled with the financial subtlety of someone clicking “add all to basket”. What could possibly go wrong?

🏴‍☠️ And finally, important stock news. The first bottle of the new Kraken Dark Caramel & Cornish Sea Salt has been absolutely demolished, so reinforcements have arrived. Another bottle is now lurking behind the bar waiting to complicate somebody’s Saturday.

So tonight comes with two possible opening times, one weather system, one football match, one P2K draw and one Kraken that has already developed a reputation.

17:59 if cricket survives. 18:59 if the weather wins.

Either way...

🍻 LIVE THE WEATHER PERMITTING FRIDAY DREAM. 🍻
