Hey all, the most easterly shanty band in Britain have woken early from hibernation, we're working on some new material, Eric has been working on his banter, Rob is still as mischievous as ever and is old enough now to know better,and mark J is still in Thailand sunning himself!!

We're putting our gig list together and will let you know shortly where you can see the lads from the longshore, in the meantime I've been able to track down a photo of us performing at the Princess of Wales' Together at Christmas concert at St. Edmundsbury Cathedral.

Haul away you rolling kings (and queens), we'll see you soon!!
