A stall from which you sell whelks (remember my Whitstable pics)?

It's usually thought that you don't need to be much of an intellectual to do it!

I really think we are one step away from being a police state, and they have all the power. :o

It is really looking like we are one step away from being a Police State, and they can do whatever they feel like. :(
