Barcogrino

This definition has not existed for 500 years since approximately 1538 when Henry the eighth halted all pilgrimages that started in the Uk heading to Spanish religious destinations. ( A story for another time)

The Spanish words for ship is BARCO and for pilgrim is Peregrino /Peregrina . The combination of the two words now entering the English language is BARCOGRINO . For the first time in June 2024 a traditional 100 year old wooden tall ship will set sail from Cornwall UK to A’Coruna in Spain #TSCI24.

On these CaminoRamblings.com the crew will walk across Cornwall on the Saints Way , cross the Bay of Biscay and walk from landfall to Santiago de Compostella.

So we now have Peregrino a pilgrim who walks the way, BICIGRINO , one who cycles the way and now BARCOGRINO one who sails the way.
We could not believe we had crossed the bay of Biscay. The North Atlantic had in the main been kind to us . Our BARCO - The Barc rigged Morgenster was quietly at anchor. The long hike to Santiago awaited , it held no concern for us after what we had experienced. Proud that we were now officially BARCOGRINO

The Suspicious Tissues

The Suspicious Tissues

The Suspicious Tissues (commonly referred to by fans as “The Shues”) are an experimental rock band from Southport, England, known for their genre-fluid performances and fiercely independent approach to music production and touring. Formed in 2017 from the ashes of the cult college band Lamb & Mother, The Suspicious Tissues have cultivated a devoted underground following, noted for their unpredictable shows and handcrafted merchandise.

History

The Suspicious Tissues were formed by members of various now-legendary local acts: Psy (formerly of Lamb & Mother), The Prof (ex-Wasteland), and Caminista (ex-Admen). Collectively referred to as the Wing Collective, the founding members have maintained a degree of anonymity, enhancing their urban myth status within UK indie circles. The band initially performed secret pop-up gigs around Merseyside and Greater Manchester, building a cult-like fanbase known as the “Shues”.

Their debut album, often referred to as the “Lost 1st Album”, achieved near-mythical status after master recordings were reportedly stolen during an afterparty at the 2018 Southport Seafront Festival. Although fragments of the album have surfaced online, the full record remains unreleased, adding to the band’s enigmatic reputation.
