Sennen Cove Lifeboats
Sennen Cove Lifeboats: An Illustrated History | Nicholas Leach
1 post
Considered one of the most treacherous areas of Britains coastline, Lands End has seen many shipwrecks over the past 2,000 years. Where the waters of the Atlantic meet those of the English Channel, storms are frequent and violent and have caught out many a ship. Thousands have been dashed against the rocky granite coast.In 1853, the RNLI established a lifeboat station at nearby Sennen Cove and the people of this small Cornish village have been saving lives ever since. The crews of Sennen have saved many lives in the past 160 years, helping those in distress from sailing dinghies to the largest of cargo ships. Nicholas Leach tells the story of Sennens lifeboats and the volunteer lifeboat crews who have manned them in this fully revised and updated history of the lifeboat and wrecks off the tip of Cornwall.

IamIamIam One kid down, one to go... my son had a baby tooth pulled that was being pushed sideways by the adult tooth. Now I'm off to the pediatrician with my daughter who's been super congested for a week, mainly with allergies but I'm seriously stressing about the virus... fingers crossed!!! #NoRona Have a great weekend!! 4y
Andrew65 @IamIamIam Wow, a busy day for you! Appears breathing problems are related to the later stages of Covid but not seen congestion as part of this. 4y

Lynnsoprano Lifeboats and Cornwall makes me think Doc Martin 😄. Quiet day with my feet up, resting my knee. Already starting to feel better, but I‘m not pushing it. So, weekend should be mostly reading and watching football. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. 4y
TheBookHippie This looks just so lovely shall we all become beach bums and form our commune now ? I‘ve spent day in paperwork .. looking forward to fish and chips for supper and a bit of wine and a book 4y

Lynnsoprano @TheBookHippie Both English Premier League and American college football. I‘m a Man City fan. When our kids played soccer, hubby and I got involved, I ended up as a certified youth soccer referee and love the game. But I grew up with American football, and enjoy that, too. 4y
kezzlou85 Been a good day but looking forward to the weekend and hopefully lots of reading. 4y
TheBookHippie @Lynnsoprano we watch none 🤣 unless it‘s in person which has really nothing to do with the actual game. So many kids I mentor watch it so I try to at least watch something once and a while ! 4y
Andrew65 @Lynnsoprano Ssh! Don‘t let @TrishB know you support Man City 🤣 4y
Andrew65 @kezzlou85 Hope you have a great one. 📚 4y
TheSpineView I was off today do I slept in. If you can call 7:30 Sleeping in. Then drank coffee and watched the news with the hubby.. cleaned house and now cooking dinner. A quiet day. I enjoyed. 4y
Lynnsoprano @TheSpineView That‘s sleeping in at our house 😄 Glad you could enjoy your day. 4y
Lynnsoprano @andrew65 I hear enough from @Alisnazzy since she‘s a huge Liverpool fan 4y
Kelly_the_Bookish_Sidekick Slow day at work. It seems the rain is keeping everyone quiet and on good behavior. Had to be here as the manager on duty so I did some of my work this morning until access was blocked for updates, did a bit to help my boss, then some reading. I can't complain. @IamIamIam hoping for no covid whammies! 👹🤞 4y
