Does anyone know of any gear shops near Truro? I need a guidebook and I'd buy one online but have left it too late as I'm heading down there after work tomorrow.

Thanks.

Andrea

I'm fairly sure the Botallack (Trevaylor) campsite sells them, together with a minimal set of rocks and slings.

In reply to David Barlow: I should give them a call on (01872) 270213 to see if they have it. If you can't find one, you can borrow mine if you like, located just outside Truro
