City - Redcar State - NORTHUMBERLAND Country - United Kingdom
About
On the way back from the Whitby Photo Moot 2006 we decided to follow the coast road, see what photos we could get on the way back. Redcar beach brought many delights... I for one was suprised with the ships, all lined up along the horizon, probably not an uncommon sight to locals.. I believe this was my first encounter with a shipping lane.
Brought to mind a local traditional song, sang to us as bairns... ______________________________________
When the Boat comes in
Come here me little Jacky now ah've smoked me baccy let's hev a bit of cracky till the boat comes in
Dance to thee Daddy, sing to thee Mammy dance to thee Daddy, to thee Mammy sing Thou shalt hev a fishy on a little dishy thou shalt hev a fishy when the boat comes in
Here's thy mother humming like a canny woman Yonder comes thy fatha drunk - he cannat stand
Dance to thee Daddy, sing to thee Mammy dance to thee Daddy, to thee Mammy sing Thou shalt hev a fishy on a little dishy thou shalt hev a haddock when the boat comes in
Our Tommy's always fuddling he's so fond of ale but he's kind to me I hope he'll never fail
Dance to thee Daddy, sing to thee Mammy dance to thee Daddy, to thee Mammy sing Thou shalt hev a fishy on a little dishy thou shalt hev a Bloater when the boat comes in
I like a drop mesel', when I can get it sly and thou, my bonny bairn will like't as well as I
Dance to thee Daddy, sing to thee Mammy dance to thee Daddy, to thee Mammy sing Thou shalt hev a fishy on a little dishy thou shalt hev a Mackerel when the boat comes in
May we get a drop oft as we stand in need and weel may the keel row that brings the bairns tha breed
Dance to thee Daddy, sing to thee Mammy dance to thee Daddy, to thee Mammy sing Thou shalt hev a fishy on a little dishy thou shalt hev a Salmon when the boat comes in
