Favourite Hornpipe Melody

[jimi]

A personal favourite of mine is "What do you do with an Undrunk Stella"

Whats yours?

I'm not a great fan of sea shanties, but it appears that Woody's favourite is "Blow a Man Down".

Not if I've got my wits about me. I can spot falsies a mile off.

"Friggin in the riggin" always raises a smile.

I'm from near to Hull in the past. They had an annual Sea Shanty Festival around the city centre. God it was awful.

Shouldn't that be "What do you do with a drunken Stella"?

The Afrikanen might understand that one.....

Oops sorry, you said Shanties........

Not a favourite of mine (and a shanty, not a hornpipe) but always seems, for reasons I do not understand, to be a favourite of my crew - Hanging Johnny.
