One bit I remember is: "Fastnet to Faeroes, the fog's getting black. You can't see your hand, can't see your hand, behind your back". but I don't think that's the one you're looking for. |

Thanks for that - I've looked for it, off and on, over the last few years but I didn't know the singers & I thought it was called 'The Shipping Forecast'! [btw Jack - Weather Forecast was 1966] |
