It's nearly summer and seaside holidays wouldn't be the same without... ouch!


Big Mac

Under a mackerel sky
Three bewitched gulls
Stir the sultry cauldron-air,
Three times they circle,
Three times they cackle,
Their fishy eyes foresee
An army of day trippers
Moving slowly down the prom,
Takeaways in hand,
Then out of hand,
A self-fulfilling prophecy.
