Sun, wind and rain again!
On a day like this, better in here looking out, than out there looking in.Except of course the boys on the crabbers who don't get to miss many days at sea. The Cesca landing alongside the fish market straight to a vivier wagon.
Meanwhile, the latest addition to the Rouse fleet, Dom Bosco rides the swell in the harbour at the end of the new quay.Loctudy registered, and proud of it, The Annais makes use of the time to put a trawl back together under the shelterdeck.
Becalmed inside Badcocks gallery, two yachts form part of the latest exhibition - when you've had a dose of art, catch a beer in the Swordfish, Star or Dolphin all within spittin' distance.
Early Saturday morning and the Annais heads for home with the customary starboard list - maybe to counteract the Westerly swell she's going to roll with on her way South.

The secret of Cornish gold!
There has been much talk of mythical 'Black fish' on Newlyn market. The truth is far more spectacular. Here for the first time ever is a photograph of Cornish Gold being produced right under Newlyn Fish Market. This incredibly rare event occurs when the elements combine in unique fusion. Much of the gold ends up here.And lo, just in time for Xmas the Penlee lifeboat gets her new berthing pontoon.

Many hands make light work
The 'Dom Bosco', two weks into her new life in Newlyn gets a helping hand from the crew of sister boat 'Cesca' to land her days haul of shellfish.
Many of the crew on these boats are Latvian or Polish.'Little Pearl', 'Pride of Cornwall' and the 'Pru Esther' land another catch of herring and Cornish sardines.
The sardines are tipped into plastic tubs with iced water and held in the market chill rooms inside the market within minutes of hitting the quay.
The crews from all three boats work together to see that this operation is carried out as quickly as possible to mainatin high standards of quality and maximum freshness.A few minutes later the same sardines are looking good on the griddle....So much so that Kevin is caught red-handed - seems the Cornish sardine is irresistible!

Top tide - top weather!
Guy Fawkes day and not a cloud in the sky or a breath of wind!
Over in Penzance wet dock the Ocean Warden takes advantage of the glorious weather - a good drying day for washing and painting it seems!
At high water the causeway alongside PZ Dry Dock basin has become submerged - who says 4x4s aren't useful?!
Back in Newlyn and down the 'Stone Quay' - what remains of the quarry railway track - here's the miniature turntable for the stone wagons.
And a mystery, what happened here, there are two seperate rail tracks?
At the end of a trip PZ542 the Filadelfia makes her way in through the gaps for the Monday morning market.
On her way in, Girl Pamela PZ6 disturbs the glass-like harbour.
Meanwhile, over in Penzance the local kids' dingy club virtually becalmed at the end of a day's racing paddle their way home.
