04 Feb 04 - 06:29 AM (#1108935) Subject: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Wombat at work Hi, this is all about our annual fund raiser for the Runswick Bay Rescue Boat, which is taking place on 13th March 04. There is full information about this on the Raggytash and Wombat thread, but we realised that the thread title was'nt too informative, so decided to link them together - hope this works. go to Raggytash and Wombat thread for full details of this event Wombat |
04 Feb 04 - 07:44 AM (#1108988) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Raggytash For those who don't know, the story started like this .........In 1977 the Royal National Lifeboat Institute decided that they would close their station at Runswick Bay as part of a cost cutting exercise, stating that cover could be provided by either Whitby or Staithes stations. Now if you're drowning in Runswick Bay, doing a doggy paddle whilst waiting for one of these boats is not really an option. Thus locals were going out in their own boats to effect rescues, boats unsuited to the task. A decision was taken by the local population to provide and fund a rescue boat themselves, which they have done for the past 20 odd years. The funding is all from private voluntary donations and all monies are used to maintain the rescue boat ALL the crews and committee freely volunteer their time and efforts. For the past 7 years Wombat and I together with our wonderful, generous and inventive friends have sought ways to raise money to assist the upkeep of the rescue boat and have raised about £3000 so far. This year we would like to add to that total, we do not set a target, any amount raised is a bonus for the Rescue Boat. On the 13th March at Milnsbridge Socialist Club we will hold our annual musical extravaganza to which all are most welcome. If you require furtehr details please PM or email me on nickscaife@supanet.com and all enquiries will be dealt with. We also provide supper for those attending to assist in soaking up some of the alcofrol!!, so if you'r ecoming please let us know so we know how much to cook and please letus know if you're vegetarian so we can cater for you Cheers Raggytash |

09 Feb 04 - 01:12 PM (#1112654) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Raggytash Tetleys and probably one from The Riverhead Brewery Tap a brew pub in Marsden, West Yorkshire which I can attest is a very fine producer of beer, any strength you particularly like cos we've not ordered it yet. Last time we just got the session beer ( Butterley Bitter 3.6% - all the beers are named after reservoirs on the Pennines above Marsden) |
09 Feb 04 - 02:20 PM (#1112712) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST Get Kimber's Men to sing their song about the RNLI Lifeboat the Robert Whitworth.... great song. |
09 Feb 04 - 04:16 PM (#1112777) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST I certainly won't complain if you have any of Phil`s beer excellent choice cheers Alex |
10 Feb 04 - 07:07 AM (#1113177) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Concerned of Huddersfield Who pray tell are Kimbers Men, are they to attend the do on the 13th, and is this the song written by Sue Hathersage which tells the tale of the 1881 Lifeboat disaster Give praise for the lifeboat men who labour to save a neighbour or a stranger doesn't matter who or why or when they'll brave the cruel sea once again Brilliant Song, which every time Sue sings when I'm about she passes a pot round to collect money for the RBRB |
10 Feb 04 - 08:57 AM (#1113260) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,MC Fat Actually writ by Sue Haithwaite a fine song indeed. She is otherwise known fondly as Red and White Rabbitt |
10 Feb 04 - 09:07 AM (#1113263) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Concerned of Huddersfield Yeah ... that one ......... the floosie, more front than Blackpool, drops 'em for certain, just like Florence in the Magic Roundabout. Brilliant song though, all the same |
10 Feb 04 - 10:50 AM (#1113351) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Dave (the ancient mariner) Kimber's Men made a CD of Shanties to collect money for the RNLI check this link. They are very good, but i'm not impressed with the Forebitters they sing. I love the song about the Lifeboat though. http://www.chanteycabin.co.uk/Joe%20Stead/Joe%20Stead.htm#kimbers men |
11 Feb 04 - 04:06 AM (#1113798) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST Ah so that's Kimber Men, wonder if they'll turn up |
11 Feb 04 - 05:33 AM (#1113839) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Red and White Rabbit I have more front than most!! and I would hope to be present at said lifeboat do!! As for dropping them well I thought I went round collecting them!! |
11 Feb 04 - 12:01 PM (#1114116) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Raggytash We, the admiring public, are well aware of how much front you have young lady. I look forward to seeing it, and you, on the 13th March at Milnsbridge Socialist Club, where, with your kind assistance we will have a great night and raise a shekel or two for the Rescue Boat |
11 Feb 04 - 01:27 PM (#1114179) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST Well I must say I feel a bit peeved now. We spent a lovely few days last summer in Staithes, where I purchased a sweatshirt from the RNLI shop, on which it states "Staithes and Runswick lifeboat", but having just read this thread, it looks like none of my contribution will go towards the Runswick boat. Is this correct? Also, if someone gets into difficulties in Runswick Bay, I assume that the Runswick boat goes out, so does that mean that the Staithes boat also goes, and what happens if they both get there at the same time? Wilby |
11 Feb 04 - 01:28 PM (#1114181) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Wilbyhillbilly The post above is mine, Sorry, forgot to put my name in |
11 Feb 04 - 04:18 PM (#1114308) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Raggytash The Runswick Bay Rescue boat works in conjunction with the Coastguard who co-ordinate all rescues. Both the RunswickBoat and the Staithes Boat will on occasion attend. however as Staithes is some distance up the coast, the chances are that the Runswick Boat will get to you first if you're doing a doggy paddle off shore in Runswick Bay or surrounds. True the money you gave to the Staithes & Runswick Lifeboat will go into RNLI funds not see the light of day in the Runswick Bay Rescue Boat coffers. The RBRB is entirely funded by voluntary donations into their own coffers, they receive no funding at all from the RNLI, all monies donated to them go to the upkeep of the boat and associated tackle, equipment, premises etc. All crew are entirely voluntary as are all the committee, Every penny goes to keep the service running. |
11 Feb 04 - 04:55 PM (#1114333) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Dave (the ancient mariner) I hope you get lots of support and keep the boat operational. It's people like you that Winston Churchill wrote this for. "The Lifeboat drives on with a mercy which does not quail in the presence of death; it drives on as a proof, a symbol, a testimony, that man is created in the image of God, and that valour and virtue have not perished in the British race." Interestingly enough, if one substitutes Human for British it becomes an international statement of truth. Yours, Aye. Dave |
11 Feb 04 - 06:58 PM (#1114434) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Zany Mouse Don't forget to buy LOTS and LOTS of raffle tickets!!!! Rhiannon |
11 Feb 04 - 07:40 PM (#1114471) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Raggytash David, Thanks very kind of you, but I'm just a punter, who, with the help of some very very generous people, (see above Zany Mouse, who's spent God know's how many hours creating a quilt for us to Raffle/Auction)can provide a bit of cash to help the service keep running. The people who truly deserve the accolade, are the people who risk their lives to aid others, those I admire beyond estimation |
11 Feb 04 - 08:32 PM (#1114508) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST There would not be a Lifeboat if it was not for people like you who organize and collect the money. |
12 Feb 04 - 10:19 AM (#1114872) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Raggytash We aslo have a great night as well, so it's not exactly hard work for us !! |

Barring Granddad duties should be over f' do. |
18 Feb 04 - 08:01 AM (#1118307) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Alexis (sans cookie) In the interests of both, keeping this thread going and furhtering my knowledge, what sort of split would you envisage between singing and playing (obviously the caveat of it depends who comes, dominates, wants to etc) and how does one recognise familiar names (nome de plumes perchance?) against unfamiliar faces? ALex |
18 Feb 04 - 08:15 AM (#1118312) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Raggytash Singing to date has predominated, mainly because it's mainly singers who come, however we are a very "catholic" gathering and will gladly listen to/join in with tunes. |
19 Feb 04 - 07:05 AM (#1118995) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Flondering off Flamborough Well, some written invites have gone out to non-catters, if you haven't received one it's becasue we don't have your address, not because you ain't invited cos you is |

24 Feb 04 - 10:50 PM (#1123124) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Tyke Now, Now Raggytash why would I want to verbally abuse you on your own thread? Is Redcar Mike going to make it over on the 13th of March to the Milnsbridge Socialist Club? |
25 Feb 04 - 04:03 AM (#1123240) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Raggytash The said Michael, who incidentally plays his bodhran in a manner that resembles an Orang Utang bashing his bishop, has been invited but will in all probability needa reminder as he did indicate he would attend |
25 Feb 04 - 06:25 AM (#1123313) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Wombat at work Not only will Redcar need a reminder about attending, he will probably also need someone to read the map - if he remembers to bring the map with him! His last attempt to get to the venue ended dismally. Probably because he went to the wrong place! Tyke - he needs your help! |
25 Feb 04 - 06:53 AM (#1123327) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,Amazed of Ampleforth Good God, if he needs Tykes help he must be in a bad way |
25 Feb 04 - 05:38 PM (#1123814) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Tyke Flipping Cheek! Ok with out the use of a map directions to Milnsbridge! Heading west on the M62 past the Heartshead Moor services don't turn off for Huddersfield and Brighouse. Climb up the hill the M62 has four lanes. Take the next slip road left at the bottom of the slip road. First exit at the round about climb up the hill past a hotel past the Wappy Spring Pub look out for a post box on the right turn right. Over the speed bumps left at the dual carriageway and immediately turn right. Follow this road down a very step hill there is a pub half way down on the left and a bus terminus on your right. Turn right after the bus terminus down a cobbled road and turn Left at the bottom. Follow that road to the end. Turn right under the Bridge and you are in Milnsbridge! Failing that here is a link to Street Map UK all you have to do is put in the Post Code. http://www.streetmap.co.uk/Default.htm |
25 Feb 04 - 05:47 PM (#1123823) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: Tyke Please Support this event! It's a good idea! Why do they need a Rescue Boat in Runswick Bay? Well just imagine you are in the only Pub in Runswick Bay! Raggytash appears with his Guitar! |

On the night we raised £480 for the Rescue Boat, £480 seemed a silly figure so Moggy and I rounded it up to £500, I suspect that tonight the rest of the Baked Potatoes, Coleslaw etc might increase that figure. All I can say is Thank you, Thank you, Thank you |

I knew I'd get into trouble ...........Ji, as always was sublime, as was Sue ...... When we passed the pot round as she sang her "whitby Lifeboat song" it generated about £60 to get the night rolling .......... The money was passed to the secretary of the club who will give me a cheque tonight/tomorrow made payable to the Runswick Bay Rescue Boat which I will post as soon as I receive it. £500 is a fabulous amount of money which will help to keep this wonderful service going for another year. Again for myself and on behalf of the Rescue BOat committee I can only say Thank you Thank you Thank you |
15 Mar 04 - 04:51 AM (#1136745) Subject: RE: Runswick Bay Rescue Boat Fund raiser From: GUEST,MC Fat Well done my twusty second !!!

The pub is full of musicians and host music at any time, Moggy has 3 big do's each year to which you will now be invited, they have a huge stage in the yard and set up mikes etc and music is wall to wall all day. They really enjoyed the banter with you and thought songs were brill. A good night was had by all me thinks |
