No. Though he was sunk twice. Very lucky indeed on one occasion. Funny how we rather arrogantly told our parents in the 1960s that they wouldn't understand what was going on as they hadn't the experience of things we had.
"Life is like a pube on a bog seat...you can sometimes get pissed off". A quote from HRH the Queen Mother (God bless her) during her one and only Christmas Address to the nation in 1956.
Don't do this ... ... I called my 9yr old grandson a mucktub and he said what's that? My iPad was handy so I said Google it. He got the Urban Dictionary with two definitions. I knew the first one, but not the second ... oh dear ...
Again not sure what thread this should be on, but here goes. Central Library top floor, Masonic stuff but a lot of history about the people behind the names I have seen many a time around Hull but not really knew much about them, I found it fascinating.
Soul Patrol are a good band (they were on the shortlist for daughter's wedding do) Beer is also good!
A few of them look a bit dodgy Chaz but none the less part of Hull's history and even one for Ernie Shackleton, our Ern may be interested
They are indeed Dennis, a few of them were in the band, Sons Of The Desert, the singer, Kipper, has a kind of Joe Cocker gravelly voice, or did have, if he is still with them and Rick Davis is a good saxophonoist, Rick I worked with a few years back.
As if on cue Chazz I believe that the Hull Masonic Lodge are opening up their premises during the yearly Open Day when the public are able to look inside buildings usually not open to public scrutiny. Blades House is open and a few other historical buildings, sometime next week I think. But I think the Hull Area Masons want to try and de-mystify the Masonic Lodge reputation of secret societies and the such, or so I am lead to believe from reading those notice boards and from stuff online.
