It's #FishyFriday - don't forget the FishMish!
Heavy skies greeted early risers looking across the rooftops on Penzance seafront this morning...
as the town braces itself for the annual Golowan Festival which arrives in full force next weekend...
like a sleeping giant, it's just too early for any of the construction plant to be caught in action...
the huge scale of the seafront repairs on Newlyn Green...
can be gauged by the height of the workings...
here 4m wide footings have been laid in concrete well below the level of high water...
more summer visitors include the Stella Maris
no prizes for guessing what Nigel is going to be doing over the next few days while the sun shines...
many megs fill the market floor at this time of year...
the sight swimmers dread...
off for a breakfast foray...
barge and tug combination from Fowey lay to the Stone Quay...
and waiting for a flat calm before venturing with a deck cargo of cement - wouldn't pay to get those bags too wet...
more foreign visitors, this time from across the border in Devon, the Plymouth registered Stella Maris and the Teignmouth registered Gerry Ann.
