To wrap up some pictures taken on the final evening broadcasts of Red Sands Radio by James Day
The last visitors Tender arrives at the Fort late on Friday 13th July
James Day & his daughter Jenny enjoy the spectacular night views from the top of the Gun Tower
James comes & has a word in the studio during the last programme
A solemn moment, the last few minutes before the Tender leaves Skipper Alan & James Day's daughter Jenny

Remember a million & one Seagulls can't be wrong
The Tender leaves shortly after our Chief Engineer Peter Chicago turns off the TX
