Breakfast on the beach. - a photo on Flickriver

            Like me this guy was enjoying a "fry up". A rare treat for me (these days), a cooked breakfast.

The weather was bright and warm and "Ducky's" on the beach at Beer opens early. So an early morning run on the motorbike for breakfast before all the grockles (tourists) are out and about.

'Grockle' is an informal and often slightly derogatory term for a tourist. It was first popularized because of its use by the characters in the film The System (1964), which is set in the Devon resort of Torquay during the summer season. Some older dictionaries suggested that it might be a West Country dialect word. Other scholars have put forward the theory that it originated in a comparison of red-faced tourists (wearing baggy clothing with handkerchiefs on their heads) to 'Grock', a clown and music-hall performer who was famous in the first half of the 20th century.
