Thread Name: Sheringham Potty Festival
Subject: RE: Sheringham Potty Festival
Yes, SRS. One of the quaint pubs in Sheringham is called The Lobster, and some years ago the people in the town created a Morris side and called it the Lobster Potties. (after a lobster pot, still used nowadays, made of withies, to trap lobsters in the sea) The Festival was called the Potty Festival and that's its name even today. I'm a huge fan, and can't wait until tomorrow. My husband (in his African outfit) usually gets dragged out from the crowd, handed a hanky or a stick and invited to dance.
