Looks like a hung parliament on #FishyFriday in Newlyn!


The only fish on the market this morning...


were from the netter New Harmony...


with two boxes aptly representing an approximation to this morning's #hungparliament at 43% & 41%...


a handful of boxes of pollack and mackerel...


were all that there was for auction so the forklifts were largely redundant...


on a morning filled with stunning light the big beam trawler, Sapphire II headed slowly through the gaps...


as the sun broke through a cloudy covering over the bay...


picking out an early-bird yacht ahead of the Mount...


at the end of the North pier there is a Cornishman at rest...


while the new quay plays host to a number of Scottish prawn boats, a few Newkyn netters and a couple of Rowse's crabbers...


looks like a set of combination bridles from one of the prawn boats...


she's still still waiting for that propeller...


and you thought the stern of the Govenek of Ladram was on the large size...


the crabbers, Chris T'acha and the Harriet Eve at rest...


filling an ocean.
