cheers guys.......all of you..........gives me a lump in the throat..............as for being mentioned in Nautical history............well, that's a first.
Actually on a serious note for once and for some real nautical history, that you could put me down as being a participant in, is...............this exact day, and I remember the weather being just as good that day as today..............on June 3rd 1959........my life was saved from drowning by a brave lifeboat man from the end of Fleetwood lifeboat slip, when he jumped into the ebbing River Wyre fully clothed to save me after I had fallen off the slip whilst crabbing and got stuck under the slip because of the ebbing tide..........
A day I will never forget, and a day that I will ever give thanks to the R.N.L.I. and god bless them all, with all my heart.
cheers, neil.
