'Carrying Nelson home' (Sing me a shanty) was written by Mike O'Connor who I had the privilage of meeting in the Ring 'O Bells at St Izzy this May Day eve.

The song's on our (Moses and the Ref's) "to learn" list as we (I)think it would go wonderfully back-to-back with Mick Pearce's version of 'The Death of Nelson'

I can dig out a copy of the words as gleaned from Martyn's CD but Mike tells me there is a song book available which I intend to buy as Mike has written other great songs and I'd like to support the writer in this way (Mike hasn't, as far as I know, recorded it himself).

P M me, Sinsul, if you want any more info. (I only check into the Cat every 3-4 days)
