Hi there Fraggle; wondered how you were getting on with your WWOFM Entry?
I've just discovered a website which has the the words to several sean shanties on it:

hey matey,
just got around to looking at the sea shanties site - bloody brilliant! I didn't know there were different songs for different activities on a ship! Thanks for the link, really appreciate it. Can you think of anything else I missed out on the entry on Folk? I'm looking to revise it (when I get 2 seconds to myself!), so any suggestions are welcome.
Take care
Keep on keepin' on,
Frag
