Topic: The Lincolnshire Poacher


In the News (Fri 17 Feb 12)

  
  Lincolnshire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lincolnshire (abbreviated Lincs) is a county in the East Midlands of England.
The ceremonial county of Lincolnshire (composed of the 'administrative' counties of Lincolnshire, North Lincolnshire and North-East Lincolnshire) is the second largest of the English counties and one that is predominantly agricultural in character.
Lincolnshire is relatively unusual in the composition of its population, being one of the least ethnically diverse counties of the United Kingdom (98.5 percent of the population describe themselves as "white").

The Lincolnshire Poacher is a Mersey class lifeboat designed specifically to replace the ageing Oakley class boats (such as the Charles Fred Grantham).
Poacher successfully passed her self-righting trials and in early July 1990 the coxswain, 2nd coxswain and assistant mechanic attended five days of boat and engine trials with passages from Cowes to Alderney and as far West as Falmouth before returning to Poole.
As all funds were raised in Lincolnshire, with a considerable donation from the John and Lucille Van Geest Charitable Trust of Spalding, it seemed appropriate to name her Lincolnshire Poacher - a name which, according to neighbouring lifeboat stations, is very appropriate(!).

When I was bound apprentice in famous Lincolnshire, Full well I served my master for more than seven year Till I took up to poaching as you will quickily hear; O 'tis my delight on a shining night, in the season of the year.
As me and my companions were setting of a snare, 'Twas there we spied the game-keeper, for him we did not care, For we can wrestle and fight, my boys, and jump o'er anywhere; O 'tis my delight on a shining night, in the season of the year.
Success to every gentleman that lives in Lincolnshire, Success to every poacher that wants to sell a hare, Bad luck to every game-keeper that will not sell his deer, O 'tis my delight on a shining night, in the season of the year.
