BBC Creative Arts programme

I was approached some weeks ago by a lady who is a producer for the above BBC TV programme asking id I could contribute a little about my model boats..........

Here is the result..............and I am very pleased with the outcome.

Thanks guys. I was pleased with it.

Mark, many thanks for the stanchions they came this afternoon.......just great and exactly the size I wanted too.

Have been meaning to ring you the last couple of days, ( night time is you and family time), but I have been so busy taking the kids here and there the last couple of days that just haven't had time to catch my breath so will hopefully ring you tomorrow to discuss the intake and pump for the Queen Lifeboat.

hi neil,

very well done on your article about model boating, and the person who wrote it did it justice. it says what you feel about the r.n.l.I. and how they do save life, and how lucky you are  to be here today to tell this story thanks to them. it should help them in putting across the danger that that water is very dangerous. keep up your good work.

 ...cheers guys.

and may I just say that I would like to dedicate this BBC inclusion to all those model makers who raise funds through their models, like Mick french, martin Kinghoward,  Mike Gribeaval,and all you guys that go religiously to shows and meets to raise the profile of the RNLI.

I salute you all, as without the work you do, the RNLI would be a poorer place and I might not have been here to call you all my friends.

neil.
