Sea Cabbage and Poppies.

 "Any gear left on the quay must be clearly identified" by order of NPHC.........
 this guy's been everywhere man........
 there's one trawler in the port continuing to use a stone trap pioneered by net designer and maker Winston Phillips........
 under pressure.......
 heading back to a pontoon berth to sort the fish, Ryan cadges a lift.......
 it must be somewhere........
 they say two are better than one.......
 that came round quick!.......
 next weekend will see another annual Remembrance Service at the foot of the War memorial outside the Mission.......
 another constant reminder for those lost at sea.......
 it would have been Vince's birthday this week, one of the crew lost when the Margaretha Maria sank off the Lizard in 1997......
 the current weather and heavy seas have scoured the beach from Newlyn across to the prom revealing several features, the hull ribs of which boat is this laying buried just in front of Tom?......
 so far the gales have left the green untouched.......
 and allowed a few variety of sea kale from which all cabbages and brassica are descended to flourish.......
 a head of shingle has formed in front of the Wherry Town outlet.........
 an old starboard channel buoy provides a working canvas for the local graffiti artists........
 the practice of digging for lugworms still continues at low water.......
 the remains of another long-gone feature off the promenade (like the sand) have been revealed, this one in front of the Queens Hotel........
there's still time to enrol for courses and join the oldest Art School in the country.
