Today, he's helping replace a deck
on an ageing trawler in Newlyn. Much rather be out on the water... ..but you can't always get out,
where I am... Not always the fish around
to pay the bills... ..whereas this is money every week. You know what you're going to earn, so it's a bit more reliable. A lot of people had jobs
and when they left work, they went fishing in the evenings. That's what made the cove. If it wasn't for all these people
