THE BALLAD OF THE St IVES LIFEBOAT ON LIFEBOAT DAY 2024
A glimpse of St Ives Lifeboat Day in RNLI 200, with the usual events plus the first live performance of an award-winning poem recently set to music in a fundraising project for St Ives RNLI which was sponsored by John Harry & Son.

Walk past now every year when we visit St Ives and comment on those halcyon days
Just came across this. Brilliant. My husband and I stayed there in 1968. I remember most of all the breakfasts - half a grapefruit - very posh in those days - and the best scrambled eggs ever.
How wonderful Katrina 💕
St Ives Times & Echo 9 August 2024 : It has been a long 5 years since the harbour has seen a raft race, but was it worth the wait? A resounding ‘yes' said St Ives Pilot Gig Club who resurrected the event and organised a great evening of fun and frolics. Even the weather played its part ensuring a flat sea and very little wind. Through social media and poster advertising asking for potential rafters it soon became apparent that clubs, businesses and individuals were keen to put their nautical skills and ideas into building some interesting rafts out of such things as wheelie bins, barrels and pieces of wood. Would they make it around the course? Yes, they all made it, perhaps not in the same state as when they started, but all finished. Fred Flintstone made an appearance alongside his mate Barney Rubble, perhaps not used to racing in prehistoric times but still completed the course in good time. A little bit of rivalry was seen on the water between the Hakes WAGs (wives and girlfriends) of St Ives Rugby club and their male counterparts - boasting rights went to the ladies, winning by a considerable margin. Running alongside the race was the best Mermaid competition, the best male mermaid was judged to be on the Hakes WAGs’ raft and the best female was awarded to the mermaid on the Lidl raft. To be environmentally aware, it had been decided not to use flour bombs this year, but after some research into what may be used, seaweed jelly bombs were made available for the watching crowd to throw and make things a little more interesting for the raft crews, a delicacy for the fish apparently. As 6 o’clock approached the atmosphere amongst the crowd, now numbering in the thousands, became electric with excitement and anticipation all waiting to cheer on their favourite raft (who needs the Olympics). By now the 12 rafts were lining up on the start line waiting for the town’s Deputy Mayor Kenny Messenger to start the race. On his command they were off, the first point after the start was the lifeboat slipway where the mermaids were waiting to join their crews. It wasn’t long before two rafts tipped their crews into the water but with true diligence the competitors managed to climb back on board and finish the race. By this time the lead rafts, headed by the WAGs, were making their way across the harbour mouth to pick up a little spade from Smeaton’s Pier before heading back to the slipway to land their mermaid who would then present the spade to the race control point to verify their finish position. Early finishers had great delight in ensuring that as each crew approached the finish line they were thoroughly bombed with the jelly and had a good soaking. With the Hakes WAGs coming home in a convincing win there was a close finish between Post-Beam (past winner) and AV adventure, eventually AV just pipping Post-Beam by the shortest of distances. The Deputy Mayor was asked to present the specially made prizes to 1st Hakes WAGs, 2nd AV Adventure, 3rd Post-Beam with Lidl taking the wooden spoon. St Ives Pilot Gig Club are extremely grateful to all those businesses, companies, clubs and individuals who helped to make this event such a success, without them it may not have happened. A St Ives Gig Club spokesperson said that the evening exceeded all expectations with probably a record crowd, some really healthy competition on the water and generally an all-round fun evening. He encourages everyone to start planning and building their rafts for next year, date to be confirmed.
In August 2024 it was announced that Wynne will take part in the 2024 BBC Strictly Come Dancing series.
I would love to see this as a National festival where everyone drives around in old vehicles of sort. And while it should primarily be Victorian it could also be any really old car someone wants to drive around in, could almost be well known mechanical festival for our country.
I hate google for constantly saying it was Carl Benz, this man did it over 80 years before he did, maybe google just can’t handle the amount of science that came out of Great Britain, seems to be a common thing everything I search up British inventions or discoveries practically nothing, search up German and lot comes up, the worst thing is many of those results are actually British creations or discoveries. But ignoring patriotism this man deserves more credit, rarely hear about him.
Very good Tony 😂
This will be the last time I do this one - far too old to be dashing around the harbour like a lunatic.
The Cornish are all as mad a hatters. It will come to nothing believe me.
The whole of St ives has been over developed, every inch of space ,every nook and cranny ,pvc and botch ,what have the council done to protect ye old St ives ? Sweet F.A
This is very sad to see! I often attended services in the chapel when on holiday in St Ives.
looks fantastic ☝️ very nice 👍🏻 hope you have an awesome time 🙏
As one of the founders of this unique Cornish Garden under the quite unique care of neil armsrong, I am always moved by the way this garden matures, from the bare fields we walked all those years ago,and yes in company with neil, sheila williams and patrick cousins. I have my own garden, which has many of these plants and I gave a great many to Trmenhere in the early days. Iwould encourage anyone seeing this video to paya visit to this wonderful garden and take time to experience many of the instalations and the passion in both the plantings, and the instalations there. A very enjoyable video.
Good times :)

Splendid achievement and much deserved, your many short films bring many happy memories of our time in Cornwall.
Well done Tony although doesn’t count as a double award for the blues 😂
Some happy memories of times gone by.
My people known as the Mi'kmaws from Eastern Canada have a legend about the Three Sisters, where Glooscap (Kluskap) a famous warrior/magician amongst my people, turned the Three Sisters (Who were spirit witches) into stone for pranking him while hunting.. The Three Spirit Sisters were also known by many natives for being associated with the three main agricultural crops Corn, Beans, and Squash.
A lovely man who I met at 41 club. I did not realise how important he was to the history of St Ives.
Looks great I keep meaning to go when I’m in London hope you’re well 😊

By Tony Farrell - Memories of Consols Pool, in THE ST IVES TIMES & ECHO and HAYLE TIMES, 19 April 2024 : A recent edition of the St Ives Times & Echo contained several photographs taken up at Consols Pool to record the tradition of sailing model yachts up at the Pool on Good Friday. The tradition goes back many years and is really a continuation of the sailing of model-yachts in the harbour at low-tide, when local people still lived Downlong. As a boy, I spent my childhood years Uplong, and many days were spent playing in the fields around Penbeagle. Consols Pool was a part of our natural playground and because of my father’s interest in model yachts I cannot begin to count the many hours I spent around ‘the Pond’. ‘The Pond’ began life as a part of the workings of St Ives Consols Mine and there are early photographs showing children and Bal Maidens dressing the tin ore in the 1870s. By the 1950s, ‘the Pond’ was open, and accessible to anyone who wanted to use it for sailing model yachts. In those days this was a popular pastime and hobby for adults as well as children. The only restriction on use was when it was occasionally emptied for maintenance - but it was always cleared of weed and made ready for Good Friday. I can recall standing on the banks of ‘the Pond’ watching the models and seeing cattle being driven from the fields, along the road and down to Consols Farm. The cattle would often meander over to the water troughs on the West bank for a drink, or wander down to the sloping bank by the roadside and drink water from the pool itself. BLACKSMITH’S FORGE In the 1950s, a blacksmith’s forge was located by the fork in the road where the Roundhouse is now situated and the forge was still being worked. My father would sometimes stop to have a ‘yarn’ with John the smith, on our way home. On occasions, if we had been good, my brother and I would be treated to a bottle of ‘pop’ while they chatted. The blacksmith always had a small collection of bottles of Jolly’s mineral water for sale. He kept the small bottles on a shelf in the forge and sold them for 6d each. In those days, all the model yachts were home-made, and people took pride in the appearance and sailing qualities of their boats. Good Friday would see ‘the Pond’ packed with boats and the banks thronged with people chatting and enjoying some Spring weather. It was a sad day when the West bank was cordoned off by a new owner and we were denied access to that side of the pool. This was soon followed by the East bank being closed off. At the time this happened, I wrote a letter to the then Town Clerk and to the press, explaining that open access to the pool had long been established and documented. ‘POND DIPPING’ The Town Clerk and Council did little to fight for this cause but a small group of people joined together to campaign for greater access. As a result the South bank, over by the chapel, was cleared and some wooden furniture was placed there. The North bank, by the road, had a wooden jetty constructed to facilitate ‘pond dipping’ for children. Sadly, the lack of access to the whole pool effectively ended the hobby of model yachting in the town. For a time, in the ’70s, a model yacht club was formed by enthusiasts, and models were sailed and raced up at Bussow Reservoir - but this too was curtailed after a while. Because of the difficulties of access, several local families took to sailing their models over at Wherrytown Pool in Penzance. The Bassetts and the Farrells lamented that they were forced to go over to ‘the Dark Side’ of the peninsula to continue a St Ives tradition! It is ironic that the Town Council are now seeking help and support in order to maintain this Good Friday tradition. There are photographs in the St Ives Times & Echo archive of a group of enthusiasts working on the pool in the early 1960s. At that time, the pool was widened and the West bank was made more secure. The reward for all this effort and activity was the ultimate closure of ‘the Pond’ to local people and the resulting decline of a local tradition. Good Friday ‘up the Pond’ still remains a magnet for local people to meet, but it is a pity that the event is so drastically restricted. Locally made model yachts can still be seen, but they are fewer in number every year. It is inevitable that the tradition of making them, and sailing them, will slowly die and another part of our local heritage will be lost.
Fantastic view of the coast line.
I met my husband in 1998 and we started going to St Ives in 1999 where we found the delightful Cortina. We visited every year until ot closed and most mornings stopped for coffee and had the wonderful scones in the afternoon. I lost my husband last year and these were some of my best memories. Lovely people and always made ro feel welcome. I always smile when I walk past Cortina and read the little plaque on the wall. Thank you for sharing.
Thank you for coming, and this anecdote, it means a lot. I’m so sorry for your loss.
Hi there, we are driving to st ives station tomorrow and parking in disabled parking there. Is it easy to push a wheelchair from there down to porthminster beach cafe (this is where we are hiring a beach wheelchair). Thanks!

'Gather up the pieces before it is all gone'... I never dreamed so much would disappear and the pace is relentless. The Glorius light is still St Ives, but many of the pieces are now gone, only the memories recorded in these wonderful paintings of one of the most beautiful places on Earth now remain. I love the St Ives Museum and one amusing exhibet never fails to make me smile and that is the worlds smallest dog. I will definately make time to come to this exhibition. Thank you for posting.

I remember collecting Dragon fly's here in 1973 wearing thigh waders the water in the middle was about 2 to 2 1/2' in depth, with a detectably hard bottom. This was before the pepper pot was built. I suppose the main cost would be diposal of the silt. This is a problem for any river fed pond lake or indeed the Bussow reservoir as bank errosion and rotting foliage and twigs flow down. The annual rotting down of the pond weed and marginal plants being another factor. There is a fine head of small brown trout in the pond whose defaction will also add to the silting. I hope this lovely pond is not allowed to fall into decline as apart from boating it is such a good habitat. Good luck people of St Ives. It seems to me that sometimes priorities are gotton completely wrong.
