Cheeky monks

A good sign, a deserted fish grader.......
the auction in full swing......
selling soles now graded to perfection........
next stage is to get some printed tallies like what they 'av at Brixham Baz......
bet these little beauties are for sale across the road at P&J Tonkin's later today......
cod don't get any more golden than these......
or blacker fish than these......
sweet monk cheeks, stars of Paul Ainsworth's Great British Menu's fish dish last night with his gladiatorial take on monk.....
and a big solid monk tail - gadzooks, zounds! - sacrilege Yan, I know......
Floyd favourites, cracking red gurnards that not so long ago would have been sweating in tubs down the quay on the deck of a local crabber - they can't afford them for bait any more......
it's hake promotion time with a mid-tide shot of fish from the netter Ajax......
one punt heads out Through the Gaps.......
a few weeks off for the crystal Sea II for a paint up and overhaul......
neat little wooden sail boat en passant......
the old raft has finally relinquished its grip on the waters of the harbour.......
two different hulls from two different eras.......
Lionel, a man on a mission.
