BRIGG TRAWLER COOK LANDED IN THE DOCK

A Brigg man who appeared at the town's magistrates' court in the early 1980s used to give his occupation as unemployed trawler cook. As the fishing industry in Hull and Grimsby was in severe decline at that time, his jobs prospects were not healthy. 
We thought about the trawler cook earlier when chancing upon a web story about the prospects for our fishing industry now the UK has decided to leave the EU.
