I think the names of those two rums are a bit..........,one sounds like a command and the other a boast!
A NAUTICAL QUESTION
A lot of us have shopped at the Co-op but how many of you have shipped at the Co-op, and ,if you did,did you get your "divvy" when you paid off?
Has anyone got any info. on the Co-op fleet?
Another Nautical Question
We have recently been remembering our glorious dead,well how about the villains! What was the name of the British merchant seaman who was hanged for treachery in 1942?
Nice story HERE
Never put anyone on a pedestal... THEY'LL LOOK DOWN ON YOU!
Excellent and informative answer Anonymouse,you are hereby made an honorary member of the Sailors Thread and granted the title of Junior seaman,welcome aboard.You will find excellent company in the persons of Captain Kong and the resident Wench (there are vacancies for other wenches too) Naked Lilac.
What an incredible story.
I am going to read it again slowly.
Thanks for that Anonimouse, and welcome to the LIVERPOOL SAILORS,
With a story like that he should be made Senior Ordinary Seaman.
KONG
What a sad and pathetic individual. Under normal circumstances you'd pity him, but when his actions could have led to so many dead...
CWS
I used to see the CWS PROGRESS in the Manchester Canal in the early fifties,
She used to run from Manchester to Rouon near Paris. They had a small fleet of three ships but after the Progress went they finished with ship owning.
The Master was Captain Hollingsworth who was quite well know for his excentric behaviour. One of them being, he had a rifle and would shoot at cows in the fields alongside the Canal. The Farmers could not understand how their cows would be shot every two weeks.
