GUEST,Nick Dow A guided tour of Ratcliffe Highway (46) RE: A guided tour of Ratcliffe Highway 24 Sep 23


Excellent Anne. I remember the spice warehouses and also the hops that were stored there. My last straight job before I went professional, was at Saccone and Speed, near the docks. They sacked me for taking days off to do gigs. They did me a favour. Would not have pleased the superintendent of cargo, although he would have been proud of his grand daughter. I've just checked out the Captain Kidd pub. I would love to have had the job of signwriting the pub sign. I like doing heraldry the best, but that would have been fun. Wappers would have put me off hamburgers if I was not already vegetarian. We are getting quite a feel for the highway that we have been singing about. We've also touched on Rosemary lane and rag fair. The latter is mentioned in a song in Hammond recorded by my old acquaintance Peter Bellamy.
