I ran to avoid getting wet and the sea stole the platter – it’s gone, into the sea. "I’m in shock, whilst Ady is as cool as a cucumber. "The Merfolk (non gender specific mermaids) obviously liked the lost of it and decided they wanted it." Promotional shots were being taken before a wave took it Picture: Glazed Expression Although people are not being encouraged to break lockdown to go and look for it, if anyone from Porthleven does spot the piece washed up then they are free to take it home with them.
