SHELLFISH was aplenty as this year’s Oyster Feast got underway in Colchester.

Dignitries from across the borough joined the Mayor and Mayoress, John and Janet Elliott, on Friday lunchtime in the Moot Hall to sample the best Mersea shellfish on offer.

The Town Watch welcomed people to the Oyster Feast before they were escorted to their seats and asked to try out the oysters.
