    Perhaps our UK friends would post the new sea shanty hit "Wellerman" from over there....

    We went to see the Tall ships at Great Yarmouth a few years back and I picked up a Disc by the Sherringham Shanty Men. Proceeds go to the lifeboat, which I considered odd as when I was about five we were on holiday in Sheringham, and one night my dad awoke me and looking out of the hotels window we saw a maroon go up from a ship in distress, and the lifeboat launched. It was the only time I have ever seen a Lifeboat launched except when watching Bay Watch!

    The Business of the commander-in-chief is first to bring an enemy fleet to battle on the most advantageous terms to himself, (I mean that of laying his ships close on board the enemy, as expeditiously as possible); and secondly to continue them there until the business is decided.
