Ford o' Kabul River - British Poem
Poem by Rudyard Kipling.
During the second Anglo Afghan War on 31 March 1879, disaster befell a squadron of 10th Hussars attempting to cross the Kabul River. Swept away by rapids, weighted down by their cloaks and equipment, 46 men were drowned or kicked to death by frantic horses. The tragedy (no doubt because it was an accident, not a battle) caused deep shock at home and evidently made its mark on the 13 year old Kipling. His poem Ford o’ Kabul River was first published in the National Observer on 22 November 1890, then in 1982 in his book Barrack Room Ballads and Other Verses, and later in other collections (see The Kipling Society).
Performed by Dave Webber & Anni Fentiman.

Haul on the Bowline - English Sea Shanty

It has often been said that "Haul on the Bowline" dates at least from the time of Henry VIII. There is no direct evidence to back up the statement. Yet the shanty may be older than most, for it is a very long time since the bowline was an important rope that required much hauling on. Many a sailor, when he had time to draw breath and think it over, has wondered why this insignificant bowline sh...
