"The Grimsby Lads" "The Trawling Trade" "The Lumper's Life" "My Old Man" "Men of the Sea" "Harry Eddom" All by John Conolly and/or Bill Meek.

With reference to the latter this is the Fortieth anniversaray of the "Three Trawlers Tragedy" when the St Romanus, Kingston Peridot and Ross Cleveland were lost in Icelandic waters within three weeks. Harry Eddom was the only survivor. Hissyfit's "Luckiest Sailor" (apologies if I've got the name wrong) is about the same event.

Here in Hull the Hull Daily Mail is leading a campaign for a minute's silence on February 5th, the day on which the loss of the Ross Cleveland became known.
