Have they all gone then?

They have around here.

I assume thereā€™s a handful left in wealthy areas, but Iā€™ve not so much as clapped eyes on one since I lived in That London.

We had a delivery Thursday from Deans Grimsby Fish Supplies LTD - quad of Hake fillets which were truly, madly, perfect - best Iā€™ve eaten outside of southern Europe.

Iā€™m guessing on Fetlar you just wait for your daily hurricane and pick what you fancy from the fields shortly after?

There were still 2 or 3 left in Hartlepool when I left there 3 1/2 yrs ago.

There are 4 or 5 on Shetland Mainland, I just order from our island shop on a Monday and they get what I want (from Island Fish Shetland) two days later, always fresh and very, very good quality.

Proper fishmonger in Claygate High Street where I work, also a butcher, a greengrocer, a post office, a baker. Also the smallest pub in England.

Weā€™ve got a good one in the market. Itā€™s still open and delivering. Letā€™s pray it makes it through this.

See, just not worth it.

Ahem.

Marketing people :angry:
Canā€™t believe any of them!

Looks like it is only the smallest pub in Surrey, but no dimensions given

There were none in the centre of Oxford for a while. But it seems one has opened in the Covered Market now (I can remember when there were at least two in there). Thereā€™s one in Osney too. The Osney one, 13 miles away, might be our nearest.

Crikey - Iā€™d forgotten it, but there was a very decent one in the Covered Market when I was at the Museum - painfully expensive, mind!

Fairly similar pricing, I suppose. Fish isnā€™t a cheap meal anymore. Delicious though, Iā€™m eating more of it than ever.

We have a fishmonger called Bunnings about a mile away. Always have fresh Cromer crab.
