Dungeness crabs made me laugh when I saw them advertised prominently in San Francisco.
Dungeness in England is the setting for a nuclear power station, suggesting to me that these were special glow in the dark crabs.
The other connection with Dungeness is that the English film-maker and famous gay, Derek Jarman lived there and wrote extensively about his home and garden there. My second thought was to wonder whether Jarman ever caught Dungeness crabs. I don't think he would have minded. I bought all of his books when he was still alive, so I hope he had a couple of grins on me too. Or a couple of gins maybe.
