Knock down discounted cock

Who in their right mind would voluntarily knock 15% off their cock? Some Colchester shopkeepers just don't have a proper sense of priority.


Marks Hall Farmers Market

Captured in the farm shop at the Marks Hall Farmers Market - standing proudly erect on a table mat or something. Got some nice sausages for tea from the local organic meat butcher.

Koc Kebab

Published only because this is the first and last entry likely to come from Wrigglesworth's wife. Copied from the internet, however it does signal a thawing in my good lady wife's initial derision!

Sadly though, I must disqualify this entry - standards have to be maintained......


Cocks on a plate

Found in the window of Markham's pawnbrokers in Colchester. Dubious sort of cock these - anyone know whether they are some other sort of bird or other?


Ballcocks

A tray full of them in B&Q Farnborough

Allcock & Stevens

Found in a side street in the lovely Essex village of Wivenhoe. A shabby looking establishment with some cheap tellies for sale. Closed on Sunday, so don't expect to see Messrs Allcock and Stevens competing with Dixons any time soon.

The Rooster House

Cocks everywhere - nowhere near enough of them to make me want to eat there though!

Another combination fast food outlet this time in Birmingham Selly Oak.
