Keeping crabs in Cromer

Over to Cromer at the weekend on a crisp day.
Noticed variations on this poster in almost every shop in the town...
It seems that the business premises that process the Cromer crab (you'll pass them just up the hill from the town) may be closing. Crabs are synonymous with the town, and when some friends visit we have to go and buy several crabs for them to take home. Regular readers of the blog will know that I have posted many times on the link between foods and particular places, as examples of cultural geography.

Other posters included a white crab on a red background, saying Keep it Cromer
The particular poster in the picture is from the Unite union.
