The prawn boat

Eyemouth, on the Berwickshire coast is a thriving fishing port. It's also a great place to buy your fish. There's a merchant right on the harbour, selling the freshest fish you can imagine - well, it's only a few yards from where the boats land their catch!

Today's lunch was a wee treat for my mother: fish and chips in the most excellent Bantry Bay restaurant, followed by a great ice-cream from Giacopazzi's parlour.

Most of the giant prawns being processed here will probably end up in restaurants in London, Paris and beyond.
