At long last I have managed to book Sue and me into the RNLI College Hotel in Poole for a few days when we stopover before catching the ferry to Guernsey next month. I have been wanting to do this for ages as you can watch the RNLI crews undergoing different forms of training, see the various lifeboats being serviced and maintained and even experience a Shannon class lifeboat simulator. I really regret that my career with long long spells overseas prevented me from applying to become an RNLI crew member and I was too old when we returned permanently to the UK so this is the next best thing for me, especially as I was once rescued by the RNLI!!
As you can tell I’m pretty excited about this! Has anybody else stayed at the college?
