Elederly chap comes in.
Looking for a book. Can't remember the title or the author.
But the authors man is a fish - comes in tins - quite tasty.
All of the customers (yes I had several) joined in to try to help. He was offered Sardines, but apparently it begins with a 'C' and is the cheapest fish you get in a tin.
Suggested Cod, Colley, Carp, Californian Sardine, Kippers (yes I know) and various others, but no joy. He went off promising to return with the name.
He hasn't.
I am frustrated now. Suggestions please.

Crosse & Blackwell????
Maybe, knowing how the memory works, it doesn't begin with a C. Could it be Rosamunde Pilchard or her son Robin Pilchard?
P.S. Nice to see another secondhand bookshop blog (I'm from JSBlog ). I decided not to write about the customer side of things - but it's all painfully familiar...
Catfood!
