I'll translate that into American for you, Lyn.  Plastic pails and shovels, greasy fries, shrimp and split pea soup (sort of) ..oh and cotton candy.  Don't know about the kiss me quick hats, though.  Smile

No, it's more of an Atlantic City or Lake Wallenpaupack terminology, I guess.  What about the hats though?

They're just hats you can buy at the seaside, usually black.. a bit like a trilby with 'Kiss Me Quick' written on them, although, I have no idea why so don't ask lol it's just one of those things.

I just found this one by Tony Tooth. It's how I feel in America, the same but not quite.
