Dunno about that Dave, but I could do with one of those guns on my Quarter deck.
It beats this.

Rob.
Moving around to the West Coast.
Attachment 24379
Rob.
Further up the coast is the island of Lindisfarne.
I am also back south of the Border this evening with a seaport not now so important as it was in the 18th Century excepting for........
Attachment 24389
Attachment 24390
Rob.
Just a little to the South of Lindisfarne are the Farne Islands - famous for their Puffins.
Attachment 24391Attachment 24392
Andrzej, posted this over on the Aerodrome.
Attachment 24404
Shall we do more harbours and sea ports, or take a break and see how much Nelsonian drinks we can find?
Rob.
Meanwhile, here is one to tide us over.
Attachment 24405
Rob.
On the Northumbrian coast is Bamburgh castle.
Attachment 24434
Today's offering is.
Attachment 24435
Rob.
Just South of the Scottish border is Berwick upon Tweed.
Attachment 24436Attachment 24437
A very important port indeed Dave.
A lot of invasions of Scotland kicked off there.
Rob.
Two harbours for the price of one today.
Both on the Isle of Man.
Attachment 24440
Attachment 24439
Rob.
Continuing to move North brings us to Dunbar.

Thank you for your good wishes, Rob.
We cannot omit St Andrerws - the home of golf. Not that I play but I have relatives, who do.

When I started searching for ale from Dundee I thought that I had found lots until I saw that it was the Dundee Brewery in New York. However, I did find one.
Attachment 24516
Here is something softer.
Attachment 24517
Great, and with connections to my absence of leave Dave, which I will explain tomorrow if I get time.
I was not a stones throw away from Turnberry for the last three days.
Rob.
Although not strictly a seaport, Culzean castle where we stayed is on the coast and does overlook the Firth of Clyde, and therefore protects the seaport.
I just could not resist adding this one.
Attachment 24545
Rob.
Today's brew is........
Attachment 24557
Rob.
Off the Scottish coast is the Bell Rock lighthouse.
Attachment 24558
Another infamous one.

I also just came across this one.

Attachment 24561
Rob.
Heading back to the Scottish coast there is another town famous for golf - Carnoustie.
Attachment 24579Attachment 24580Attachment 24581
One last ale with a connection to Lighthouses.
Attachment 24584
Rob.
Since you have been covering lighthouses, Rob, I thought that I would try to give lightships a mention but I could only find one ale. It is named after the lightship in Boston U.S.A..
Attachment 24585
Good one Dave.
I could not find much more on Lighthouses around GB myself.
Rob.
Just come across this one.
Attachment 24592
and this.
Attachment 24591
Rob.
Continuing up the Scottish coast, the next port is Arbroath.
It is a pity that the ale commemorating the Stone of Arbroath is made in the U.S.A..
Attachment 24593
These soft drinks are made in Arbroath.
