Subject: RE: Compliment or put down?
A number of the lads, the majority I'd say, are or have been involved in fishing but some are in other trades. The name of the band doesn't insinuate that they're all dyed-in-the-wool fishermen if you think about it. Port Isaac, their patch, is an important Cornish fishing village as well as a deserved tourist magnet (we avoid it in peak season though it's lovely on a nice day in April or May). What is true about them is that they're as nice and jolly a bunch of chaps as you could wish to met, and if you get two or three of them in your pub it doesn't take much to get 'em going (well, a pint of Tribute, maybe!)
