Actually the fact the octopus didn't slaughter the crustys is my problem.
octopus love lobbys
which is why lobbys around here hang in caves with wobbys.
And wobbys love to eat ockys so it all works for every one.
Do you talk like this in real life or what?...
R H "and is there any treatment for it?" Draney
It's called 'Ocka' mate!
Only the chosen few can speak it, gods own t'would seem.
Now if you would prefer the laborious terms wobbegong, octopus and lobster
I can work it it,
but your just making it hard on yourself digger.
Mind translating wobbegong, just one more time, into a language closer to
English as she is spoke?

In that vein...
