Excellent! I used to have to regularly walk through some of the guttin' sheds in Peterhead .... believe me, not for the fainthearted! These women are no shrinking violets! ;-)
Ta Charles - I once heard a bloke just sing this brilliantly in Stonehaven Folk club 12 years ago...Love the album "Awa wi the rovin sailor" - I also have 2 books of stories from the late Peter Buchan. Truly great stories.

Must get a hold of that one Charles - though I love these songs to sing them would not be "right" . The stuff I am working on is from my own country, Australia, or at least where I was born and raised until moving here 12 years ago!

Don't know the exact date, but pretty sure it was filmed 1930's. The boat at 1:00 (D'Arcy Cooper) was requisitioned by the Navy in 1939 and sunk in 1941 along with it's crew.

Hi Lindsay - I was thinking of sending it to you but I see you've got to this one before me :-)
Anybody know the date of the film?

kintakintyea--great reading for this Yank! Boil them twice? Oy! PS I understand, but canna yet speak, Glaswegian. Blame Battlefield Band and McManus.
This would be Doric, from the northeast. A couple of distinct features: "f" for "wh" and "gweed" for "guid". Have fun with it!
