Hymn for the Privateers

I've been following the HFX Wanderers as an avid and passionate supporter since their very first game. It has been one of the things that was really missing from Halifax. Its something that I posted to the supporters group a while back. I've changed a couple of lines here and there since it was first written. There is a tune that goes with it, but I can't sing, so at the moment its only in my head.

****************************************************************************************

 

I signed up for the Privateers
To join the lands best crew,
With mates from all across the world
For eighteen-eighty-two.

We shout and stand for Wanderers
And sing our hearts til through
And cheer them from the Kitchen end
With barrels of Garrison brew.

Wanderers, Wanderers. We all sing for Wanderers
Wanderers, Wanderers. We all sing for Wanderers

In rain or sun we stand our ground
And support through every test
From the Citadel, we'll give Forge hell
And show them who's the best

Come join with us, the Privateers
'Til victory we shan't rest.
Our Harbour, Our Home, Our Soul, Our club
Its Halifax on our Chest.

Wanderers, Wanderers. We all sing for Wanderers
Wanderers, Wanderers. We all sing for Wanderers

Been a While

I'm not going to bring you up to speed. Years have passed since I last wrote anything on this blog. In fact I'd even forgotten that it was here for a while.
Its been a little busy in this microcosm.
I've been needing an outlet, somewhere to vent or spew ideas, so I'm back. Who knows if this will be regular, or just something that lasts for a couple of weeks, but... you never know. #helloanew
