Blacksheep Posted November 8, 2007 Share Posted November 8, 2007 I used to look foward to Mr Supper Cockle coming in the Crown up Walkley. I always got a pot of cockles with pepper and vinegar on and a pot of prawn cocktail. When he came in shouting cockles, mussells, we all of course used to shout back 'alive alive ho!' How hilarious we were . I bet he'd never heard that before! Maybe thats why he jacked it in? Seafood - Nothin finer with a pint of cask Tetley. Those were the days.... I'm sure there's still a market for it Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
