22 Aug 03 - 10:40 AM (#1006485) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Farewell the Faroes From: Cavia_P It sounds rather like one of the songs from the Northern Trawl IIRC. That goes through the ports and fishing grounds recalled by ex trawlermen. I don't have my resources handy, but I bet Maggie or Linda Kelly would know... Regards, Cavia_P Still in 'Ull |

Maybe now that I've put my LPs on minidisc I can start working on the harder cases like this one. (Or if I'm lucky Ian McCalman will be at Tonder Festival and I'll be able to bludgeon him into sitting down and writing it out for me!) |
