WYSIWYG
What You See Is What You Get. This is a journal blog, an explore-blog, a bit of this and that blog. Sharing where the mood takes me. Perhaps it will take you too.

I had a little trouble loading this vid in - so in case it doesn't play on this post, you can listen on the tubular if you click through here ...

I wish I could be there... what a feeling, even when the weather is not the best, the music and the people are worth everything...

ReplyDeleteAh, and I thought the term 'silver darlings' for herrings was a Scottish thing. (There is a long established and rather expensive restaurant at the entrance to Aberdeen harbour called 'The Silver Darling'.)
ReplyDeleteCheers, Gail.

DeleteAs did I until I visited maritime museums in Norfolk and Northumberland and discovered that the Herring fisheries of yesteryear stretched far and wide, and this term was used when it was thought they would never end...Yxx
