Not really, having never been there, how else can we guess it? Just using available data!  ;D

            Absolutely right M.E.  The pier has been refurbished and the new life-boat station with a new boat have been added. There is a very interesting RNLI museum situated next to the old station which has a lifeboat in it (like the Seawatch museum in Moelfre) and has a lot of information on Henry Bloggs , who like Dick Evans of Moelfre earned the Institution's Gold Medal twice. Down the coast at Lowestoft there is a statue (also like the Dlck Evans one at Moelfre) to the local Lifeboatmen there.

Here is a little teaser.  What, where and who was responsible?

Sorry about pic size, no automatic adjustment for this one.  It is in the UK and there is a link between this and the previous poser!  I chose the silhouette on purpose.

Could be, but not as far as I am aware.  Here is another pic.

That is 'Verity' by the artist Damien Hirst and it's situated in Ilfracombe....beautiful sculpture - would love to see it in the flesh so to speak.

Well done Sam.  The link of course is that it is on the pier in Ilfracombe.  I had a couple of great years in the area when I was in the R.A.F. At Chivenor.

In which North Wales restaurant was I sitting when I took this photo?
