The RNLI Dún Laoghaire Lifeboat Station had their Open Day for the public on Sunday 22 July 2012. The RNLI Sea Safety Roadshow was on hand along with members of the Irish Model Boat Club who displayed their lovely hand made model boats. The Irish Coast Guard and the Customs Dog Unit were also along to help support the day. There was also face painting and RNLI goodies for everyone. The public had the opportunity to talk to the Lifeboat crew and to get onboard the RNLB Anna Livia which was berthed alongside the Station for the event.

A beautiful Autumn day, not a breath of wind, just the ideal conditions to get my scratchbuilt 1-72 scale model ship out on the water. It is a model of the preserved Norwegian "night route" ship, MS Sandnes, which used to sail from Sandnes/Stavanger to Bergen overnight and return the next night. The keel was laid in 1949, launched in 1950. It is now preserved in Stavanger, Norway, as a working ship available for charter and cruises.
Here it is seen on the Wollondilly River, below Marsden's Weir in Goulburn, which sadly is the only stretch of water anywhere around Goulburn where one can sail a model ship, without being snagged in water weed.
My scratch built model of the Peterhead Pilot Boat having her first run of the year on the Irvine Beachpark pond.
During the inter-war period the Underground Group, that also owned the General Buses , and the successor organisation after 1933, London Transport, issued a series of leaflets in which were collected series of newspaper adverts. These were often commissioned, as were panel and full size posters, from various artists and designers. This series of seven, showing activities and destinations on a typical London Sunday are by artist Arthur Watts. It is worth recalling that for many decades British Sunday's were markedly quieter days than today; most shops and businesses were closed and the day was intended for religious observance, family events or cultural activities such as museums and art galleries.
The seven adverts feature; Petticoat Lane Market via Aldgate East station, Speakers Corner via Marble Arch station, Regents Park via the station of that name, model boats on the Round Pond in Kensington Gardens via High Street Kensington station, the Victoria & Albert Museum via South Kensington, Hyde Park via Hyde Park Corner station and the Natural History Museum, again via South Kensington. The artist depicts these busy scenes, and with vignettes, and it must be rememebered that the illustrations could contain depictions that conform to the contemporary social attitudes and not those we would expect today. This copy of the leaflet was acquired some years ago via a dealer having been surplus from the LT publicity files. It was likely printed by the Curwen Press in Plaistow, London.
Arthur George Watts DSO (1883 - 1935) was a noted illustrator and artist who was widely commissioned for periodicals and advertising. Watts, who had won the DSO for bravery during wartime service in the Royal Naval Reserve, was killed in a crash of a KLM flight in the Italian Alps on 20 July 1935.
