The Cutty Sark. I have some very distant memories of visiting Greenwich when I was a child; I remember the maritime muesum, and I think we went aboard the Cutty Sark. I must have been 8 or 10 then, I guess, and I hadn’t been back to that part of london since.

It’s easy to forget that, not that long ago, ships like this were the main vessels of trade around the world. This one worked as a tea clipper, and then as a wool clipper. Modern container transports seem so much less personal than this ship.

Are legendary. Today’s selection: Internationalen

Mera brännvin i glasen,
mera glas på vårt bord.
Mera bord på kalasen,
mer kalas på vår jord.

Mera jordar med måne,
mera måne i Mars.
Mera marscher mot Skåne
mera Skåne gu’bevars.
