Children from the Summerswood Junior School, Boreham Wood, Hertfordshire, visited the R.N.L.I. Depot at Boreham Wood late last year. The following are extracts from letters received after their visit.

'The place I liked best', said Barbara Folkard, was the rope room where all the different sorts of rope were. I especially liked looking at the little model boats.' Jacqueline Newcombe said in her letter: 'We liked very much your kindness and thank you for lemonade and biscuits. . . . The place I liked best was the department where rope was being kept, and I liked the department where cox was being painted.' Said Jane Seaholme, who came from Lyndhurst School, Boreham Wood, 'All the girls liked the "Blue Peter" boat best and the models of the boats. When I was there I told you about my brothers being rescued by a life-boat. The man that rescued them was Winston Evans and he worked at New Quay.'.
