Jim Hardie   527 #7 Posted September 20, 2011 There were several, each with their own rounds. The one I remember did the town centre pubs. He had dark brylcreemed hair, an Errol Flynn 'tache and wore glasses. His patter could be disgusting when he was in the mood.

choogling   14 #9 Posted September 20, 2011 They used to sell crab sticks later renamed seafood sticks because they contained no crab.Two firms come to mind ocean supreme and kershaws i think, someone will correct me.I was told eu regulations killed the trade off.

choogling   14 #11 Posted September 20, 2011 The cockle man as we called him, was eastern euroupean the first time he came in our pub everyone went silent and stared at him like he was an alien .So i went up and bought a bag of cockles then one bye one others bought some.Within a few weeks he was selling half a basket full at a time . The locals nicknamed him sam never did find out his real name . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
zippyzag1 Â Â 10 #12 Posted September 20, 2011 Lol! This is a blast from the past! I remember one from about 1996. The company was "kershaws" and the guy carried a basket hamper donning a "super cockle" shirt! He was a double of one of the chuckle brothers. Really nice bloke though. After a night out me and my now ex used to get a lift home from him. Ok with breath held..... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
