GUEST,Charles Macfarlane Poetry - Shipping Forecast at 100 (8) Shipping Forecast at 100 04 Jan 25

The most recent edition of Poetry Please celebrated 100 years of the Shipping Forecast with a suitable selection of poetry connected with it in some way.

I was put in mind of a song about it, I think by Dave Pasket or Paskett, who IIRC also wrote "I Could Not Take My Eyes Off Her" and "Pegging Out The Linen (on the washing line)". From what very little I recall, I think it was a comic song.

Can anyone fill in the huge gaps in my memory about this? Even better, are the lyrics around anywhere?
