I am so glad I can read this here. I can absolutely visualise everything you write - like a movie about the fishmarket in passing on the screen. Happy to see your fish project flourishing so well - but I never doubted that anyway...especially after I had seen you interacting with the market people when we did the Live Sociology series together. All the best from Chile, (which is where I am based now at the Centro de Politicas Comparadas en Educacion at the Diego Portales University in Santiago - doing Higher Ed research) Elisabeth P.S: Seafood here is magnificent btw!

That is one early start!! I really enjoyed your account. I got a good sense of how the morning went and the surroundings you were in. Roger sounds like a legend! Can we cook fish together soon?! Dawn, I am impressed. That is one early start!!

I particularly liked the way you analysed your selling technique at a later stage, relating it to social groups. I'm also very impressed by the way you slipped into your role so quickly, given the short amount of time you were there for. It sounds like you really enjoyed the experience and this comes across so vividly within your detailed account of your day. And I bet the fish meals you prepared from all that hard graft made them all the more tasty!!!! Great work Dawn, i thoroughly enjoyed the 'fishy experience' Jacqui Fabulous article Dawn, really visual and full of flavour.
