Town Crier Lindsay Munro

In addition to his duties during Fair week, Lindsay welcomed to Queensferry passengers from all over the world as they disembarked from the cruise liners which anchored in the Forth throughout the year.  Lindsay received fees amounting to £1000 which he has very generously donated to the Ferry Fair.  The committee is most grateful to Lindsay for this kind gesture.
