Crepsicule cats

Cornish dive charter boat the Celtic Cat from Porthkerris Divers is in town.....
as is the huge cat Meridian a survey vessel from Fugro.......
yet another cat heads off into night, this one on the prowl for Cornish Sardines.......
as does the Pride of Cornwall........
there's plenty of twine left to be braided in the basket.....
work aboard the Doris K is making good progress as the stern rail is rebuilt, lets hope that the occupants of the barge outside aren't kept awake!......
a 1939 yacht, built in Scotland on herring drifter lines, flies a huge Cornish flag.....
making her way up the harbour is the 'sardinniere' Resolute.......
closely followed by the Little Pearl as she pulls out of her pontoon berth.....
passing a handful of anglers on the end of Battery Rocks, the Scillonian III heads for the harbour gaps in Penzance.....
that makes the score 22-21 to the IRB as she shorten up the ends to tow in the punt Spindrift.......


in honour of Keith Floyd it had to be a fish supper, yoghurt and lime zest sauce......
with stir-fried haddock, squid and prawn and a glug or two of course.

Well done Laurence on a short write up on Keith Floyd, in my career as a Television cameraman I once (just once) stood in for his regular cameraman. keith had me zoom in, pan left and right and come in tight as he ended the program, he was a great chef, on the quayside or halfway up a hillside, he did as you say lead the way in seafood cooking, aslo his many overseas meals. Thank You and again Well Done.

Thanks for that! Luckily for us he started something that others could not help but follow - his legacy lives on!
