The Kintyre Forum

Carradale harbour area comes alive with the annual lifeboat night this coming Friday. Food, drinks, stalls, games, bouncy castle etc.
A Visit by Campbeltown Lifeboat where members of the public can go aboard for a look around, also the local fire appliance will be in attendance with their stall of goodies.

Lifeboat harbour night was a bit misty and wet, but it did not dampen the spirit's of locals and visitor's alike especially on the arrival of Campbeltown Lifeboat which had brought in tow a bunch of performing dolphins with their young. They swam around for some ten minutes at the stern of the lifeboat tied at the quay.

Despite the weather, once again the members did well to raise funds with all the stalls, hot food and drinks. Thanks to the lifeboat for their appearance.

A wise old chappie , I have had my fair share of soaking's with all the years at sea. Notice the leader delegated his son.

I amron, sign of the times. Two boats away this year, the Wanderer and Shemaron.

Lovely photos JD. (Dad said there was a dolphin in the Toon, now was that last Friday or Saturday...?)
