SATURDAY SELF-CHALLENGE
5 JANUARY 2019
TAKE A PHOTO THAT REPRESENTS YOUR "NEW YEAR RESOLUTION"

HAPPY NEW YEAR, ALL

Just back from spending New Year on the Isle of Wight. I am even further behind with commenting but, hopefully, I will catch-up over the next week or so :-)

I rarely make a New Year Resolution but if I do it rarely lasts :-)

However, after visiting the Bembridge Lifeboat Station and understanding the tremendous work done by Lifeboat crews I feel I should at least make a donation and I am considering becoming a member of the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. I didn't realise that all their funding comes from donations.

Strange how some of our most vital services are reliant on public donations as in Life boat and Air ambulance. Good on you Roger the RNLI needs people like you. Happy new year. Great choice for sight & Sound. Has anyone met braver men & women than those who serve the RNLI.

Nice leading lines and beautifully timed with the ship off in the distance, Roger.

I hope you enjoy it if you do join. It sounds like a very worthwhile cause. :) The song is a great mate for your image.
