Intuition landing crab

Boxing day blues

Ready to move into a landing berth at the fish market...

before the cream of the catch, pots full of the day's lobster haul...

find their way to the waiting vivier lorry...

two of the ever expanding Hosking fleet...

old quay net store

crabbing power...

still work to be done on Corin's new beamer...

en vacance...

empty gaps...

not easy to catch in action...

the latest Imogen II...

with her new net drums...

several St Ives men in newlyn for the Xmas break...

and a visitor from Padstow...

lets hope it stays that way over the break, with the ILB well ahead this year!!

Coombe river in full spate again!

Penzance prom to Newlyn

Intuition landing crab

Christmas dinner!

Some bubbles to start the day...

watched under close supervision....

with the bird prepared...

a few hours later it's out to rest...

and the stuffing prepared...

after a week of fish running up to the big day there's a simple scallop starter in the offing...

the table is set...

and the starter served...

time to carve...

its a lock-out for the marauders tho...

time for flaming the pud...

after dinner, we know just how he feels!

Wishing you a Happy Christmas from Through the Gaps!

Good to see the Excellent decorated for Christmas, one of the old wooden sidewinder trawlers up on the slip again.

At 60 you can enjoy fine food

There would appear to be something of a theme developing in this year's birthday gifts!
