Are they sure it wasn' an al-LOG-gaitor??
Let us be lovely
And let us be kind
Let us be silly and free
It won't make us famous
It won't make us rich
But damn it how happy we'll be!

Re: Silly Season!
My hubby told me about that, he'd heard it on the radio. Apparently they called it croc monsieur.

Gives me hope for the future of shipping in the English Channel that at least the coastguards knew what it was!
