School & football isn't about who is the most popular or scores the most goals.
Have good attitude. Be humble, respectful and working hard. For these two, its that plus being brave and resilient beyond their years.

Huge credit where its due - the @wightlinkferry shore staff on shift for the Wight Ryder 20.45 sailing from Ryde last night, and 05.15 from Portsmouth this morning, were absolutely amazing. VERY helpful indeed, so thank you! ๐๐ป๐๐ป

Two absolute legends & gentlemen, who have been at the forefront of my development over the past months. Sad to see them go, happy retirement!
Pete has completed 3 of my Type Rating/Line Checks and Steve 2, with the my 12000TD Type Rating being his last ever assessment ๐ฅน
Last month, we marked the retirement of two of our longest-serving Captains ๐
Pete and Steve have played a huge role at Hovertravel keeping our hovercraft flying and helping shape the wider industry ๐ค
Thank you both.

I thought I'd be whoop dooping and doing cartwheels after achieving a 40yr dream but, quite frankly, I'm too shattered ๐
The hardest 3 months of my life, and it continues to be now that the stabilisers are off. Never again will I be told that I can't multitask! ๐คฃ

Thinking of our beloved Queen Elizabeth II on what would have been her 100th birthday.

Marvellous.
I know someone who can doodle anything, to make it look even better or more interesting than it actually is.
I mean, this IS interesting (to me) but I feel it needs doodling on ๐ค

The clocks have gone forward - hello spring โฐ๐ผ
Weโre looking forward to longer, lighter days, & from 28th March weโve added departures to our timetable: 19:15 from Ryde and 19:30 from Southsea.
More daylight, more flexibility, more reasons to fly!

....what he said.

Those things were among the worst cargos we had to carry at sea.
Couldn't use enough dunnage along the comical amount of 'Spanish windlass' to hold them from moving.
