ROYAL NATIONAL LIFEBOAT INSTITUTION



VISIT TO POOLE
By Mr Paul Brown
and Maserati Enthusiasts

Just like to bring this to the forefront,give it major consideration especially for the boating fraternity amongst us,there is no better reason to endorse and support this , these guys are under funded and do an extremely dangerous job at times with little or no reward other than saving lives, Paul has been Instrumental in organising this meet, it covers a tour of the RNLI Poole their boat/ equipment and services including a demonstration followed by a meal and a drive around local country roads , Lets give it some support and recognition by attending and participating



Monday 28 June 2010

Drive around local country roads organised by Paul,After lunch I thought about a Maserati outing, taking the chain ferry across to Studland and the Isle of Purbeck. This could make an interesting photo opportunity but we would have to brave the queues. Once across the divide it is National Trust land and the scenery is spectacular as we make our way to Lulworth Cove. This route would only allow for short bursts of sporty driving but the journey is nonetheless worth making. There is plenty of open plan parking (pay and display) and cream teas together with other refreshments available at our destination.

Sorry to hear that Paul. I have to say it would have been too far for me to travel being a Midlander, but it's a shame those more closely situated weren't able to attend. Maybe next year?

Thanks Emtee,


I chose the Monday to see the live training. Whatever the advantages of that choice, weekdays can be difficult for many people. Charity based events can also be harder to sell. If al group wants to visit on another occasion then I would be pleased to make the arrangements.


Regards,


Paul
