Thank you for another great video! I regulaly visit lighthouses, mainly across the South West and it is so sad to see how many have now been downgraded to a flashing LED. The best way I can describe it is they have had their souls ripped out of them. It is great to see such in depth videos of what the lighthouses once were and all the stories that they hold.

Thank you very much for saying what basically I fell about what has happened to our Lighthouses. I too felt it was like the soul being ripped out of the Lighthouses. Shame really, but as I've said before, some progress sucks! Thanks again, I wish you safe trips on your future Lighthouse visits. Cheers again and take care.

These are without equal. This is another example of your superior videos, of a unfortunately forgotten way of life. To me, on a personal note, I get to see and hear from the amazing people who kept us safe, often on long fraught voyages from distant shores. I certainly enjoy these and these are important on so many different levels. Thank you for having the foresight to record them.

Thank you very much David. Yes indeed, not only sea sick, but it must have been quite scary boarding that boat in those seas too. Cheers Mate and stay safe.

Wow, Thank you very much Katherine. So glad you found my channel and are enjoying the videos. I do hope other Keepers get to see your very kind words. It was more than a job to an awful lot of us, and I feel extremely honoured and lucky to have served. Thanks again, take care and above all else, stay safe. God bless to you too.

Excellent 😊. I've been there a few times. I've een to island more times than I've landed, due to onshore currents. The old boats don't have thrusters so I've been there 2 or 3 times where we've had to turn back. Great place.

Excellent video content, editing and commentaries. Wonder if the craft taking the livestock was originally a landing craft from WWII.
@PeterHalil
@PeterHalil 9 месяцев назад
Thank you very much for your kind comments. Yes, the landing craft certainly looked like WWII. It would be nice to know for sure, so if anybody out there does, please feel free to tell us al. Cheers and take care
