about
Earlier this year, after the sudden resignation of the local MP, it was announced there would be a by-election in Hartlepool.
With just a short time until the vote, Boothby Graffoe realised, if he were to release a single called "Hartlepool" he’d be able to use the media’s constant use of the name, Hartlepool, to promote it. Yes. He really is that cheap.
200 years ago a weird thing happened in Hartlepool. This is a song that wonders, just what, exactly, that weird thing might have been?

I haven’t laughed so hard since I found out my mother in law was terminal. Thankfully in both cases I cried a lot and so my joyful exuberance was easy to mask. granty86
