Friday is fish day.
Abbey Warehouse apartments enjoy basking in the warm glow of the morning sun.....
as the cloud lifts from over Mount's Bay........
the weather was distinctly changeable......
as the cloud descended again in the space of minutes.....
the Medical launch dropped into Newlyn to take on board fuel.......
as the last Lyonesse landed her night's work.......
keeping the sardines well covered with ice.......
and sea water.......
before they are taken off to FalFish.......
with hake prices still on the floor, with even the larger grades of fish going for just over the £2 per kilo mark......
not so big turbot.......
or this fine tub gurnard specimen.........
the sky has that glassy look to it which generally means rain is on the way.......
some boats are doing a good job.......
other's like the Algrie won't be fishing for anything until the restoration work is completed.....
customer's at Tonkin's Fish Shop opposite the market can take advantage f some excellent prices on offer for a fishy Friday.
