I have been looking again at Cyril's great song,and am amazed at how many people not only SING "haul away" but WRITE "haul away " , when it should be "CALL AWAY " , as one does with a boat ( Example ; "Please be good enough to call away my gig, Mr Christian ; I fancy a Breadfruit for lunch !" .

   I have discovered ANOTHER Royal Naval Instructional Film ( A FIRST for Michael Winner !!) entitled "Floating Fortress " , in which one can see two "True British Sailors " being transported ashore from carrier HMS Victorious , in Valletta harbour, in a genuine Bedouin "Dghaisha " , or Dyson, or whatever !! I am now 67 , by the way , and have been a Naval Pensioner for 40 yes FORTY years !!
