Old Jack

After spending the morning in Whitby Mummy and I had to think about heading home.  We made one stop to make on the way at Staithes. Staithes is a really pretty village on the coast, but more importantly, it is where the BBC film 'Old Jack's Boat', a programme I like to watch with Daddy. 


"Needles and pins, needles and pins,
Sew me a sail to catch me the wind.
Sew me a sail strong as a gale,
Carpenter, bring out your hammers and nails.
Hammers and nails, hammers and nails,
Build me a boat to go chasing the whales.
Chasing the whales, sailing the blue,
Find me a captain and sign me a crew.
Captain and crew, captain and crew,
Take me, oh take me to anywhere new."

(Shel Silverstein)
