Fish tale

A langoustine looks like a small orange lobster with long, thin claws. Fraserburgh lands more shellfish than any other port in Scotland, and its club, "The Broch", are Highland League champions. When it is startled it flicks its tail and zooms backwards, like a defender tracking a runner.
