Laurie (Yocky Lol) Gilson was born into a family of Southend fishermen which stretches back generations. Evacuated to the Midlands at the age of eight, he spent much of his time on canal barges. But the sea was in his blood, and returning to Southend, aged fourteen, he became a fisherman, and spent some forty years at sea, being skipper of his own boat for most of that time.
