"Red Ensign" at Ramsgate
Permalink  
 


Hi, 
I've just taken these photos from the Ramsgate Mayor's website 
from the hoisting of the "Red Ensign" at Ramsgate today. Sadly, as 
many of you know, this was unexpected as it was supposed to be 
happening on Sunday hence our members were not there. We were spread 
over other pre-planned Friday events with myself and members being at 
County Hall in Maidstone. I am very pleased to see that our colleague 
Roger Head of the PWSTS managed to attend prior to travelling to 
Dover for which I thank him very much. I have informed the Ramsgate 
Mayor that we WILL be attending this event next year with our Standard 
and more members as we have 12 months to plan ahead. 

These photos show the "Red Ensign" spread out followed by a group 
photo and finally, the Mayor's Mace Bearer, who is also a retired 
merchant seafarer, reciting "Vindi Boy" Dave Partridge's poem 
"HEROES". 
Regards, 
Phil.
