Fresh Fish at La Cotiere

It was a miserable windy and wet morning so I took the van to La Cotiere an important fishing port in France (ranked 5th). The fresh fish is sold direct to restaurants and shops on the island. We bought some sea bass, prawns, oysters and mussels. The strange thing is the mussels were Irish, from a supermarket.
It's brightened up a bit this afternoon, as usual, so we may cook and eat the fish outside. At least it's not cold out of the wind being surrounded by the sea.
It didn't clear up so we ate inside again. I opened the oysters (2) and opened the wine, while Rosemary steamed the mussels and fried the sea bass. The  pre-cooked prawns looked after themselves!
