I Saw Three ships


I saw three ships

This image, captured on Lake Ontario one wintery morning, reminded me of the old English Christmas carol, “I saw three ships come sailing by”. It seemed a fitting image to mark Christmas Day.

Merry Christmas to those that celebrate it, and a happy holiday season to those that don’t. May your bellies be full and your hearts be fuller, and may you be surrounded by those you love. Or, as we say up North, “Eyup!”

We Yorkshiremen are, at heart, a people of few words. Most of which will not be found in a dictionary.

I saw three ships come sailing by,
On Christmas Day in the morning.
I saw three ships come sailing by
