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. |

Ferry Fair
week 2009 passed successfully,
the weather was kind over the
four weekday evenings but
unfortunately for the Burryman
heavy rain showers persisted
throughout the Friday.
Despite this, large crowds
followed his progress and there
was an excellent turn-out of
people on the Friday evening for
the various events. Ferry
Fair Day began ominously with
heavy rain showers early in the
morning which miraculously
cleared for the final parade,
the crowning ceremony and the
rest of the day. Queen
Evie, Gracious Lady Irene McGill
and all the children were
resplendent in the warm sunshine
and later reports confirmed that
they all thoroughly enjoyed
their day. The afternoon
entertainment from pop group "Boyz"
was very well received by a huge
crowd of onlookers and a superb
day came to a fitting end with
the massed bands and the lone
piper playing "Highland
Cathedral" whilst the Lothian
and Borders Army Cadets lowered
the flag. The community
looks forward to seeing Queen
Evie as she carries out her
official duties throughout the
coming year and to an equally
successful Ferry Fair 2010.
