Very evocative. Although for me it really evokes my childhood, paddling out beyond the breakers at New Brighton beach in the evening.

My word that goes back a little, before my time!
A good read as I recall, put small naval vessels and their brave exploits on the map.
Remember PT109?

Thanks for looking gents.
Rob, I would be concerned if you were looking at waves that size with just a paddle.
Charl ...you hit it on the head ... a "watery grave". It wasn't until I posted it I thought, this is nightmare stuff for me ...and when Mike put that book cover ....
I hate the sea with a vengeance, I really do ...it terrifies me (some counselling needed here maybe) :unsure:
But thanks for looking.

That's one of the classics, and as you can see it has been read to bits, literally. I find it almost impossible to throw out a book, even when I have a robust Hard Cover edition to replace it. I also have the Jack Hawkins movie in my tablet, to watch on the train to Bris. I haven't read a book of PT109, but I have seen the movie a few times. I have to say, I prefer the Ealing Studios version of WWII to the Hollywood one.

'ere!! that tea leafing geeza nicked my picky and put it on is fish hook , eye ope your not taking the Micheal Mike ....

Oops ... your a Scot, so the London slang wont mean much.... but it is great, the old Cockney slang.
A language ...and it is ... that is still evolving, as are most of the others. But the Cockney for some reason really appeals to me.

I just love Language, dialect , the origins , the evolution .... from hieroglyphics to computer code ...bloody amazing.

Sorry ...got a bit off course there ^_^
