During a tour of the Eden Project's distinctive domed biomes, the King remarked on the many impressive plants, saying "there was nothing" growing when he first visited. Later, on a visit to nearby St Austell, hecklers tried to question him about Andrew Mountbatten-Windsor and convicted paedophile Jeffrey Epstein – but were told to "shut up" by a woman in the cheering crowd.Two staff members practice "sighted guiding" where one wears a blindfold to simulate being a person with sight loss being guided around a busy airport Staff have been learning how different sight conditions can change how much a customer can see and how to offer assistance if someone requests it. Working in pairs, the training involves one person wearing a blindfold, while the other guides them around check-in desks, through security and onto a flight all the time describing where they are going and what is around them. It was hoped the training would allow staff to understand the needs of those with sight loss as they try to navigate the busy airport environment.Matthew Cosby said the station regularly supports deep space missions Nasa said it was on track to launch its Artemis II mission in early April, which would see astronauts fly around the Moon Goonhilly Earth Station, near Helston, will help to track the Orion spacecraft as it travels around the Moon and back to Earth.North Devon surfer Malakai Hagley's moment on the huge wave went viral on social media, with 11‑time world champion Kelly Slater commenting: "That looks fake! What a ride!" Hagley said waking up to praise from Slater was overwhelming: "Kelly is the man. To have even a little respect from him blew my mind." Hagley, who grew up near Croyde and works as a surf coach on the beach, travelled to Mullaghmore in County Sligo, encouraged by big‑wave rider Andrew Cotton, also from north Devon.Kernow Conservation recorded the creature during routine monitoring on the Trewithen Estate, near Truro, where staff have been working to restore native wildlife.Kerdroya labyrinth completed after seven yearsThe last stone of a labyrinth in Cornwall called Kerdroya has been laid, marking the completion of a seven-year project. It was the vision of Will Coleman, who was responsible for the Man Engine project, who said he believed it was the largest classical labyrinth in the world, built alongside Colliford Lake on Bodmin Moor.Coleman said: "Without the support of our community hedge-pledgers, sponsors and skilled craftsmen, this project would never have got off the ground, let alone reached completion."Snow swept across Dartmoor on Wednesday, catching early visitors by surprise and dusting the moor with whiteness before the sunshine returned. Derek Robbins from the Fox Tor Cafe in Princetown filmed the moment and said the weather changed in seconds. "It keeps you on your toes and to be honest it's not predictable all the time and it's nice to know that it can be snowing one minute and then sunny the next." Minutes after the flurry, sunshine broke through again. "From one extreme to the other," he said. "Who knows what we're going to get later."'I was diagnosed with incurable brain cancer on holiday'Minor injury unit returning to full week service
