Shetland News @shetnews

THE country’s most northerly lifeboat station at Aith held its annual gala day on Saturday featuring a procession of jarl squads and lifeboat crews, tea, candy floss, an auction as well as an eating competition, all followed by a family supper dance with the Peter Wood Band.

Here are  some photographic impression s of the day, all supplied by Marvin Smith:
