@threelegsoman Sorry, there's just some creepy-military-spy radio station that constantly plays coded numbers. It also plays a fragment of a song called The Lincolnshire Poacher at frequent intervals, so that's what most of us civilians call it. I don't actually know what transmission used those specific numbers, but I saw them in a video once.
I always love it when I hear this song! Although I'm born and raised in Canada, my gran's family came from Lincs, and big piece of my heart lies in places like Tattershall, Wood Enderby, Wrawby, Woodhall Spa, Owmby-by-Spital, Market Rasen, and Hundleby! :o)
Great stuff... (whilst technically not a yellow belly - I was born in Yorkshire - Lincolnshire is where I grew up and is my spiritual home)
And I'm a descendent of many a poacher - legend has it one of them's dying wish was that the ambulance taking them to hospital would knock down the local gamer keeper 'so at least I could take 'em with me'
i used to sing this at school kids dont sing anythink like is anymore witch is a shame it needs bringing back to linconshire schools

That's a nice rendition! I managed to teach myself the song as well, thanks to your annotations.
By the way, nice guitar!

You are required to be very pissed before attempting this song.

I come from a long line of gamekeepers but still feel an affinity for poachers - I suppose there's not a lot to choose between them!
Beautifully done, thank you.
