Help required with...

While in Whitby nearly a fortnight ago, I ordered some kippers from the little shop on the front. They were supposed to be posted to a friend; they never arrived.

Now, comparing geography notes with my mum, we think the shop is either on Marine Parade or Pier Road. However, the interweb has completely failed to provide me with an address or phone number for it.

I've found a phone number for Fortunes (one of the smokehouses); they're not answering. I can't find a number for Nobles (the other smokehouse), and in fact I have no idea whether the shop is connected with either of those, anyway.

Does anyone have a suggestion of how I can get in touch and demand my smoked-fish-by-post ?

I have another of those song lyrics questions where I proivide a fragment of lyric, and some background incorrect information, and ask if anyone knows what it is.

This is not a quiz. I don't know the answer. That's why I'm asking.

Today's approximate lyric: baby, you don't want to be a picture in a magazine

I'm convinced it's a Bloc Party quote, but when questioned BP's bassist said "nope, not one of ours", and I suppose I should take his word for it.

Any offers ?

Sadly, I have no idea of the name of the shop :(

so possibly, yes - but I wouldn't know.

Well, this place isn't really a fishmongers :) And certainly it's not at any of those three addresses.

The claim that there are only three fishmongers in Whitby (or two, since one of those listed is in Bay) is a blatant lie, too. There may be only three listed, but it's just not true!

Sorry to be awkward - and thank you for assistance - it's just not a trivial task to locate the little blighters.
