Brenda is the local fishwife and general gossip. She spends her day pretending to peddle fish while she clutches a basket of sorry looking mackerel. What she is really peddling is stories. Her business is to know your business.

Brenda at Newlyn Fish Festival 2006

Brenda is shocking to look at with her bad teeth and general lack of hygiene. She will pour her heart out to you about her husband's weakness for the local young lobster girl in exchange for some of your stories.

Brenda is at home wandering around any crowded festival or gathering as long as there is a beer tent and some shade for her fish!
