Harry Cocque

Very old Dorset man in a rest home. Well, a character from some amusing books really.

Bit of a long shot, but has anyone seen my bike? Taken from outside the pub in Middleton Splashback on the evening of 4 March 1938. Looked a bit like this one, but mine had a piglet tied to the handlebars.

@MartinClift5 Not sure that it ever could.

[Harry Cocque @HarryCocque]

Now I don't know WHAT to think.

I’m walking down to my 8th favourite cafe.

Somebody has knitted a jumper for a tree.

Dick Van Dyke may not have been able to pull off a Cockney accent, but he's done a fine job at the back for Liverpool.

@OneWayFlaps Hmmm...

To be fair, I've been trying to persuade old Ivor to wear a face covering for years. He doesn't cough or anything, I just don't like him.

Still upset over the passing of dear old Dame Vera Lynn. Seems like only yesterday I was flinging myself about in the mosh pit at one of her gigs.

WHO KEEPS LEAVING THESE CASES LAYING AROUND?

Just got back from a very satisfying couple of hours in the pub. And by pub, of course, I mean lavatory.

[Harry Cocque @HarryCocque]

@Originals_in I try 😉

I was never very keen on that Starkey chap. Or his partner, Hutch.

@SusanDaisley There's life in the old dog yet. And me it seems.

[Harry Cocque @HarryCocque]

@SusanDaisley I'm afraid I used up my online allowance streaming bootleg episodes of The Brittas Empire :(

@HutchinsonDave Welcome to my world.

Rest home #lockdown day 76. The ladies are wailing along to Wuthering Heights on the radio. Reminded me of how much I enjoyed a bit of Bush back in the seventies.

[Harry Cocque @HarryCocque]

Rest home #lockdown day 73. Watching The Matrix which is a very good film, although at my age I would definitely have taken the blue pill.

[Harry Cocque @HarryCocque]

Rest home #lockdown day 68. There's a lot of talk of the R rate, but to be honest I have enough trouble with my P rate.

[Harry Cocque @HarryCocque]

@MandyJClark A toaster eh? Bit posh.

[Harry Cocque @HarryCocque]

Rest home #lockdown day 67. Glad to hear that shops will soon be reopening, so I can finally get out and spend my Woolworths vouchers & Green Shield stamps.
