No matter what side of the fight they were on, RNLI lifeboat crews launched to save lives at sea. During the First and Second World War, lifeboat crew launched 5,568 times and saved 11,708 lives.
20 lifeboat crew lost their lives due to enemy action. #RemembranceDay
@RNLI -this summer my 2 year old has become obsessed with lifeboats especially after seeing the Weymouth lifeboat launch. He keeps asking for a book but I'm struggling to find a picture book based around a lifeboat and its crew which is toddler appropriate-any suggestions?!
Another rammed train with standing room only. Why on earth @WestMidRailway think it's a good idea to put on a 2 carriage train during rush hour and a pandemic is beyond me.
We're proud of the lifesaving work our volunteers do in the Channel – we make no apology for it. Those we rescue are vulnerable people in danger & distress. Each of them is someone’s father, mother, son or daughter - every life is precious. This is why we launch:
Today we mark the handover of Chaplain of the Fleet @RoyalNavy from Ven Martyn Gough to Rev Andrew Hillier. Thank you Martyn for a job very well done and welcome Andrew to the new role. @of_fleet@RoyalMarines
@HWFire That's a shame - but looking forward to when you are able to do them. In the meantime if you could maybe look at remaking the 2005 "Here comes a fire engine" that may save my sanity 😂
@HWFire I know Covid restrictions make things tricky but don't suppose you've got any open days planned?!
My fire fighter/engine obsessed toddler would probably lose his mind!
@NTCroome we come for a walk every week and as much as our son loves spotting all the little birds, squirrels and ducks, the very friendly cat is by far his favourite. What's the cats name for future reference?!
@tractorted1 - are there going to be any more episodes on amazon prime?! My son's obsessed and not sure how many more times I can watch the same 4 episodes!
A round of applause for the dinosaurs. Every day. Countless times. As demanded by my 1 year old (by dancing with his dinosaur). And I have to sing the full song every time. Thanks @nickcope4
@Hermesparcels what's your customer services number? You've hidden it well on your website. Also what about my parcel that you said on saturday would be moving in the next 24hours and yet has the same status now?
@BootsHelp - when are you going to update your website and app to allow people to use gift cards? Trying to use my maternity present giftcard towards a car seat which currently isn't possible?!
@BootsHelp As I can't use a giftcard online, I phoned our local store and asked if I went in would I be able to use it for the carseat to be ordered for home delivery. They said yes. Just been in and they now say it's not possible. What's the point in having a gift card?! Useless.
