A knocker-up woke people for work by tapping on their windows with a long stick. In some pockets of industrial England the job lasted until the early 1970s.

At Tallow Reach, the harbour in my stories, the pilot wakes the ferry lad, tapping on his window with a boathook on her way down.

16 Oct 1905 // HM Submarine A.4 was taking part in signalling tests off Spithead with hull fully awash when water entered via an open ventilator, through which a flag attached to a boathook was being extended. Very quickly the boat lost trim and began to sink in a steep nose-down attitude.

what I need is for someone to come over and pull the bones out of my body with a boathook

Seen a man try to lift a punt with a boathook once. Valuable. You learn the shape of wrong just as clear as the shape of right.

FUCK. The sailors of the RNLI risk their lives every day so others might live. What the fuck is wrong with these people?

Someone needs a boathook across the head. They do the same as I did, and are my brothers. I see some asses in need of kicking.

Those two were constantly trying to kill each other. They had a boathook fight on the bow of the rig a few weeks later. Quite bloody 🤣

“It was still on the car when he ate it”
“OH…”
“And so ‘Big Al’ ate…”
“NAh, Its because he’s Big.”

“Thank You my good man.
BoatHook, Hubcap - Go make sure they’re got everything sorted. Me and Big Al will let the organisers know we’re here.”
“Boss”
“JUst ONCE It’d be nice for one of you guys to to have an issues.
I mean; 4 great white sharks turn up and the only one that ever has issues is me?”

“Not this bullshit again.
Look Here, See the case my colleague Boathook is carrying? The small one?
THAT is a violin case.
