(no subject)

I have had The Day of the Clipper stuck in my head for days now, which is why I finally bit the bullet and bought two copies of it (different artists). Except it's still stuck in my head.

Sailing ships and sailing men will sail the open waters
Where the only things that matters is the wind upon the Main
So all you loving mothers keep your eyes upon your daughters
For the sails will mend their tatters and the masts will rise again

Needless to say, I listened to this song a lot while writing Coastwise. It is a very Narnian Navy song, I feel (says she, with dignity).
