My friend sent me a photo of part of our writers group. We're named after a shed in her garden! That is "Moon Hut", because she wrote there during the nighttime. There was no moon on Saturday, the sun was shining. Moon Hut was too small, so we sat in the garden. Here I am (in a striped blouse) between Karen and Kath. Karen is the author of "Colours". It's hard to translate the title of Kath's book, because there's a word that wasn't in the old language. In the past Tom Bawcock and William Bodinar went to sea and caught fish (perhaps seven types). They never threw any fish back into the sea. Every fish was eaten. Nowadays the "wrong" fish (too small, too young, wrong sex, wrong species) are thrown in the sea again. The word in English is "bycatch". Perhaps the words in Cornish could be "thoughtless catch".
