JamesHenry Bad news for Whitby (28) RE: Bad news for Whitby 08 Sep 06


I lay beneath a mackerel sky
And viewed old Whitbys' ships,
Then headed to the Magpie
To get some fish and chips.

The queue stretched like a conger eel
It drove me up the pole,
Saw Herga Kitty tucking in
To a lovely lemon sole.

The Tootler, he remained impressed
As regards their standards,
While Frug thought seven fifty
Put them on a par with bandits.

"Seven fifty's pretty good,"
Chirped in Liz the Squeak,
"A plaice I know in Padstow
Charged me more than that last week."

"Hurry, in the name of cod,"
A voice cried out in pain,
"Ma bladder's fit fer burstin'
And it will nae take the strain."

The queue it grew and nowt got through
This motley crew of chancers,
Shanty singing folkies
And teams of morris dancers.

Then plod came by and cast his eye
Upon the vast obstruction,
"I'll have to book you all," he said,
For that is my instruction."

"Tell us sarg, what's the charge?"
Up spoke a pheasant plucker,
"You're charged with loitering with intent
To purchase a fish supper."
