Hickman's Harbour in rhyme
Hickman's Harbour is celebrated in a well known piece of doggerel:

'Arry came from 'Ickman's 'Arbour; 'Arry 'ad an 'at. 'Arry said to 'Arry's mother, Mudder! Where's me 'at? 'Arry's mother said to 'Arry, 'Arry eef you look, Yer 'at's out in de 'all, 'Angin' on an 'ook!

As the main article seems a bit too short to include the rhyme there, I've left it here for later.

Out of idle interest, there is a similar English rhyme:

'Arry went to 'Ampstead 'Arry lorst 'is 'at 'Arry's muvva said to 'Arry, 'Arry, where's your 'at? If it ain't 'angin' on the 'anger in the 'all I'll 'it you on the 'ead wiv an 'ard 'eavy 'ammer And your 'owls will be 'orrible to 'ear.

So you see, Wikipedia is a source for all sorts of interesting things. Rickedmo (talk) 13:22, 9 August 2011 (UTC)
