That brings back memories my late uncle Jimmy who was more bent than me had a wet fish shop in the 1950s . Him and the local fruiter a couple of comics . The fruiter put in his shop window Fresh Apples and they are Fresh . My uncle Jimmy not to be beaten but Lemon Soles and the Are Soles .
My cousin told me this year her dad had one women who drove him crazy . She asked for one to be filleted he did that for her and she said " I am not having that its shrank do me another". He did and she repeated her words , " I am not having that its shrunk ". He picked up a third sole and slapped her across the face with it. Funny she still stayed a customer but never tried it on again.

Used to be two speed boats in Tynemouth area with Just a quicky on the side of one . The other had a painting of a bloke swimming under water beneath was painted the name , muff diver.
