That’s the photos now live on my website (link in the bio) from Sunday’s open day.

The weather held, although at times it did look like it would rain. The crowds enjoyed themselves with the entertainment and food and the demonstrations and stalls were very popular.

A reminder that are volunteers and so open days like this are really important. Not just in fundraising, but in bringing community and support together.

The day was opened by the fantastic sound of the pipes and drums, courtesy of and then the first of the demonstrations took place from

Smells of bbq ( thank you ) swirled round the various stalls run by fundraising volunteers, , face painting (by Louisa).

And thanks to Queensferry Community First Responders and for putting on RIB taster sessions.

Even managed to photobomb a lifeboat during the day (photo on the website).

Thanks to and the station for allowing me to capture the day on camera.

RNLI Kinghorn Lifeboat wave-ing… 🤦🏼‍♂️ goodbye to the watching crowd at the RNLI Queensferry Lifeboat open day on Sunday.

Great to see the two lifeboat stations working together and demonstrating techniques.

A great day!

Some photos from my visit to Eyemouth last Saturday, with a couple of short bits of drone footage thrown in too.

In these photos is the Shannon class lifeboat “Helen Hastings” RNLI 13-29

“The Shannon is the latest class of all-weather lifeboat to join the RNLI fleet. She’s the first modern all-weather lifeboat to be propelled by waterjets instead of traditional propellers, making her our most agile and manoeuvrable all-weather lifeboat yet.”

Great to spend a little bit of time chatting with the crew and thanks for making me so welcome.

The event was organised by 👏🏼

I had been to Eyemouth in the morning to take photos of the Shannon class lifeboat “Helen Hastings” when the crew mentioned about the event - attending it in their D class lifeboat “Sheila”.

A great event showing multi agencies working together, demonstrating various life saving skills.
