Which brings us back to Armstrong Siddeleys.
There is a place to be raided in Cromer. Crab nomnomage not an unappreciated side effect.

The Cromer stash? He seems like a reasonable guy. I would be interested in driving up there to see.

Let me know if you do.

It's only about 3 miles from me.

A Cromer GGG meet, now that would be something.

I think it'd have to be GAGA..., with the A for Anglia Television.

If you want Cromer crabs it's now the end of the season.
They should be available again next spring, exactly when depending mainly on the weather.

To be honest, I don't think we'd make it before Spring anyway.

In further news, something unparallel happened today - literally. In the midst of a downpour, the driver's side wiper arm became adrift. I managed to catch it through the open window before it got blown off entirely. I have now carried out a temporary repair, but I guess the search for new wiper arms has begun.
