Overnight, floods and heavy winds cause chaos in Cornwall, centred on the "St. Blazey, St. Austell and Lostwithiel communities". Main roads have been closed, landslides have stopped train services in and out of Cornwall, whilst schools too are dysfunctional.
Therefore, geographically - given it's central location to the above - also badly hit was the Eden Project, with 3 feet of floodwater in places forcing closure for at least a week, Eden(link from wiki as are "Eve" grass sculpture and landscape images; flood from BBC): located 2 kilometres (1.25 mi) from the town of St Blazey and 5 kilometres (3 mi) from the larger town of St Austell, Cornwall." .
I will leave the rest to your, hopefully fertile, imagination; given yesterday's Royal Wedding announcement and the ongoing theme proffered here.
cheers

the name came from a translation of Lost (a tail) and Withiel (a lion), the lion in question being the lord who lived in the castle. wiki
There are roads in Luxulyan named after all three saints. Sulien is a Welsh variant of the given name "Julian," but has also been interpreted as being derived from the Welsh sul, meaning "sun" + geni, meaning "born," Sulien being the name of a Celtic solar deity.[4] Wiki
And let us not overlook Bodmin moor.
