Crabs?

I used to have a boyfriend who lived in Selsey, but I don't recall catching scabies.

Has anyone got a pin so i can poke out this winkle?

It's Selsey for crabs. You could probably get a bit of scabies.

*Whispers* - I agree Sharron.

So you didn't catch any crabs for tea then?

Edit to add - Spike Milligan refers to *crabs* in his writings, but probably not those found at West Wittering :-S

Everybody in Wittering was wearing that today. That is the class of visitor they get!

The women are not much better.

Too much sea air and sand in me egg samidges seems to have a way with me!

xxx :-D

Off down the garden to shut up the shed and greenhouse, larfing as I go. Prickles, you're such a norty girl!

Can I just remind you that this thread is about Spike - mind you, my bush was pretty spikey to-day, I have to say. Up to the loft tomorrow to find my Spike Milligan's book of poems.

Otherwise Dizzi might get cross.

Gosh Wend..........there seems to be a lot of erections and bush trimming going on at your house!!

That must be some bush you got there............if you had to climb up a ladder in order the trim it! :-0

No wonder you got a wolf wistle!! ;-)

Bet that went down well in posh West Witters, Prickles. I would've enjoyed the spectacle, but had to stay home as my fireman turned up to erect posts for our new front gates and I needed to be around to trim a bush and that sort of thing. Hey, have to tell you this - when I was out on the pavement, up a ladder, trimming said bush, some White Van Men drove past and gave me a whistle. Nearly fell off the ladder :-D

Sorry to go off piste, Dizzi.

Home again, home again jiggidy jig.

Did you see me Wend and Sharron? Eh, didya?

I was wearing 5inch white stilletoes and a lime green mankini. :-D

I can't believe i was asked to leave if i didn't put me mankini on the right way round!! :-S
Sooo embarassing!!! :-0

I always walked along the beach especially when it was high tide. I loved climbing over the break waters.

Up Cakeham Road or did you walk along the beach?

I used to live in East Wittering...long ago. Then myparents moved to Bracklesham. They didn't stay long as it went dead in the winter. I have fond memories of walking from east to west. Say hello to the sea for me.

I went over East today.Maybe we saw each other and didn't know.

Think she must've already gone when you posted, Sharron. Wonder if she caught any crabs?

You people in West Witt.Do you wanna meet for a cup of tea?

Did I ever tell you my OH met Spike Milligan.

OH was fishing off a wharf in the Woy Woy New South Wales area. A bloke walked up, sat down and they started yarning about the fishing, what was being caught., their holidays etc. You know general bloke type chat.

Years later while reading one of Spike's very funny books, we discovered a mention of the meeting.

Small world.
