The Gig on its charity row arrived in Lyme Regis on its way to Poole from Cornwall. Escorted by a yacht they were met by our two gigs and the safety boat. Its was the first experience of Josephine Whetlor in the safety boat with Henry and one other . The Chairman had asked me to greet the pirates when they came ashore and welcome them to Lyme Regis and it was a pleasure to do so. In the evening a chanty evening was held at the Harbour Inn and good evening it was . We all wished the pirates a safe voyage back to Poole.
