Dickie Lyr Req: Here's to the Lads at the Fishing and... (26) RE: Lyr Req: Heres to the lads @ fishing and traw 29 Dec 04


Glad to have been able to oblige Nutty. Sorry that you've had to wait so long ! I came across this site quite by chance the other day while researching guitar chords for another song recorded by Robin Hall & Jimmie MacGregor (Tatties and Herrin'). As regards Fishing and Trawling, the only word I'm not sure about is in line 1 3rd verse : I've written it down as "Karrisk - yo'na" because that's what it sounds like in the song. I'm sure it's not spelt that way. It may be a gaelic expression or place name. I don't have the gaelic so if there are any gaelic speakers out there who might be able to help, it would be nice to hear from you ?

Thanks for your thanks Alexis. It's Fraser by the way, not Gendall. Born near Inverness but now living in Kent.

Richard
