David's bulletin after some reflection has really annoyed me.
These people are interfering with the history of sail.
The sailors were pretty hard men and they had to be.
Anyone such as these usually women should read a book by an Australian
women whose name I cannot remember about the ships that sailed from
Australian ports to the UK with wheat and wool for the UK.
The book's name is something about Cape Horn and the authors name is Smith.
These PC correct people whould understand that the basis of their present
comfort is not disconnected from these "Drunken Sailors".
Anyway plenty of children are aware of drunken men, so what are they hiding ?
In fiddling with nursery rhymes they are also interfering with history and
the stories of those times. The children should be told of background to the
nursery rhymes. Children always like those horror stories anyway.
They will even make them up for themselves.
These women and they usually are women should be taken out and sent on a
voyage on a windjammer.
Feel better now I have that off my chest.
