Friday finds a fishy market full of fish!
A more esoteric shop window on Penzance seafront.........
booted and suited on the market........
where white meets black.......
or just plain black........
it's that time of year when the roes begin to appear in big white fish like cod and pollock.......
just a smattering of mackerel up for auction this morning........
and a handful of extra large (for Newlyn) cod.......
alien-like apparition in the harbour, another job for the boys........
she's looking good, a new punt waiting to hit the water.......
fish move fast when there's lots of it.........
the trail -blazers leave their mark thanks to the ink from the cuttles.......
best time of year for those fat looking lemon soles from the Imogen II and the Harvest Reaper............
the permanently fixed no parking cones that appeared a few weeks ago are certainly proving effective - so is the knock-on effect on local traders who want to know where people who normally stop for just a few minutes to shop can park without having to pay in the car park or risk being clamped - in the name of community spirit?
