Could you find love with a very handsome blue crab? A swash-buckling hunk of a crab who could sail right up to your little island and carry you away to your sailing and romantic dreams? [Cue romantic music...] Full disclosure: I'm not this handsome all year, it's a seasonal thing. This is my French blue phase for Spring, when love is in the air (and water).

I'm actually partial to a hook and a peg leg ! And fleas and scurvy can be dealt with !
I tend to stay away from crabs ... Although I'm feeling kind of romanced by your blueness ... And you should always try things 3 times before you can make an informed decision!

Crabby really is one helluva nice crustacean.... Always witty, but shy to a fault... coming out of his shell is usually a seasonal thing... seems you may have sped up his metabolism a tad...

Well... I've never been tempted to taste crabby, as I consider him to be a good friend...
The "smiley heart" malarkey was simply poking at his romantic gestures.... All of us getting a grin at the fun...
No code... and no Germans yet... crabby's North Carolinan, Atoll S. Africa, boaty Portugal, Happy displaced Californian in Mississippi...

i'm in copenhagen luce. and yes the beer here is beer
are the sailors more sailors than elsewhere? damned if know. sometimes the Baltic is meek as lamb and other times I think we face some of the fiercest sailing around.
but the beer is good, the men handsome, tall and light haired (I'll not dicuss the gals except to say I've never found any place in the world with so many beautiful ones)

I think you will find that atoll is S. England and not S.Africa.

Good ... As I'm always disappointed when I find the beer is not beer, it's like when all the labels on the tins get wet and you have to have peaches for dinner followed by ... More peaches !!
I have not had the pleasure of the Baltic as yet ... I hope I arrive when she's fierce ... And I can toss my lines to a tall fair haired adonis!
