Please Give A Little .. (PiP)

Please Give A Little .. (PiP)
Seen at Port Logan, Wigtownshire, this 'fisherman' was collecting for the RNLI. (Royal National Lifeboat Institution) Sitting on a bench with his fishing nets and wet weather gear on and with a beautiful flower boat beside him bedecked in flags he was eye catching and really made me smile!

The song I have added as a link is 'Give a Little Bit' a Supertramp song, sung here by Roger Hodgson of Supertramp

Two beautiful pictures Carol. I love the boat filled with flowers. I remember seeing similar at the entrance to Minehead, not far from you. It is also a wonderful cause of course.
2 years ago.
Ecobird club has replied to Rosalyn Hilborne club
Thank you very much Rosa. They have put a lot of effort into the flower boat and the scene itself. What seems strange is that Port Logan is so quiet and this is tucked away down towards the harbour so I doubt if many people even see it, which is a shame.

I like to see flower boats and I remember a really nice one years ago which we found tucked away across the water from Eilean Donan castle so we managed to get some shots with the castle in the background.

Have a good week ahead

Ecobird club has replied to Stephan Fey club
Thank you very much Stephan. . It was lovely to see and made me smile, and it is a good cause supporting men and women who risk their lives to rescue others at sea. However it was not in a very prominent position in a quiet location and I am not sure how many people even see it which is a shame.

Two lovely photos Carol..........and a great music link. I think it's appalling in this day and age such a valuable emergency service has to rely on people's contributions for funding..!!
2 years ago.
Ecobird club has replied to Keith Burton club
Thank you Keith. You are right of course and they are not just volunteering but risking their lives to do so. I have my doubts whether this lovely display would have brought in a lot of contributions sadly as it was in a quiet location. I just happened to see it as we drove past on our way to the harbour and went back. It is a real shame considering the work that has gone into it.
I am pleased you liked the music too.
