SASless
Stop Press: Margate Seafood Purveyors Weekly.
Ill Health due to heavy metal poisoning forces sale
Winkle and Jellied Eel mobile unit complete with propane boilers, scum skimmers, winkle pins and hi tech advertising units (blackboards and 4 sticks of chalk) for sale.
Margate area. Would suit semi retired seafaring gentleman with multi lingual tendencies and ability to deal with Truckers.
Never raced or rallied – new tyres in 1987 – MOT till end September.
Ask for Chas or Dave.
Just what you were looking for - mind you - don't think you can just turn up as a US citizen and steal a job that could be easily done by highly skilled Bulgarian, Romanian, Latvian or Polish workers! Your 2 day course at the ACME school of Clam Bakers will not be any use to you here!
Oh no - you will need to sit 13/14 exams including learning the latin names of every shellfish or marine vertebrate known to man and know the entire process from initial discovery of oil or gas deposits to the production of the propane being used for your boiler! Then there is food hygiene and Elf and Safety and even safe disposal of used winkle shells so as not to exacerbate Global Warning to consider.
Will this make you a better Winkle Seller - of course it will - stands to reason!
Oh no - we don't issue Winkle licences to all and sundry stamped "Not valid in the UK" and have loads of foreigners turning up on foreign shores claiming to have all sorts of rubber stamped qualifications and harming the natives!
We have Standards.
Stick to the Caribbean mate.
