My deepest thanks to everyone involved with the choir, writing and performing a new song in honour of the day. Your voices and creativity brought comfort and meaning to all those that stood by the quayside to scatter their yellow roses and pay tribute to their loved ones.

Yesterday’s National Remembrance Fishermen’s Day was a deeply moving and heartfelt occasion.

Together, we stood as one—remembering the brave fishers who never returned home, and honouring lives lost at sea but never forgotten.

There was something incredibly powerful about seeing our community come together in such a meaningful way. Each note sung, each word spoken, and each flower scattered carried love, respect, and remembrance. ❤️⚓

A huge and sincere thank you to everyone who made the day so special:

- 🎶 Joss Cameron and Amy for such touching music that spoke to the heart.

- 🙏 Rev Suzie Fletcher for leading a beautiful and thoughtful service.

- ⚓ Sea Cadets for their dedication and support.

- 🏛️ MP John Lamont for standing with our community.

- ☕ Old School Café & Ebba Centre for their warmth and hospitality.

- 🌸 Occasions of Eyemouth for the stunning flowers.

- 🎤 Cockenzie and Port Seton Community Choir for a truly emotional closing, singing their hearts out as flowers were gently laid upon the water.

Watching those flowers drift away was a poignant reminder of the many loved ones held in our thoughts. A moment filled with reflection, unity, and deep respect.

This day was made possible by the strength of our community—coming together to remember, to support one another, and to keep the memory of our fishermen alive.

Thank you to everyone who attended, supported, and shared in this very special tribute. You helped make it unforgettable. ❤️

🎉 HAIRY COO 🎉

Our adorable 3 Hairy Coo (soft toys) have got out of their field…and are causing trouble and getting into all sorts at North Sunderland Harbour Dunbar Harbour & Eyemouth Harbour Trust but they don't have names yet and we can't catch them! 👀🐮

For just £2 per entry, you can take part in our Guess the Hairy Coo Name? All Harbour Masters have a list of 100 names for you to choose from — and once all entries are in, the name will be revealed and you can call this Hairy Coo by name and take back to your grazing pastures. Lets hope, it responds!

It’s a bit of fun, helps support the Fishermen’s Mission, and you might just be the one who names your newest wee coo! 🧡

It is suspected, there may be more stragglers around other harbours , but we await confirmation.

Good luck everyone! 🍀
