Old film of North Berwick and The Bass Rock

An old film from 1963 showing North Berwick and Tantallon Castle. The Bass Rock features in it with Fred Marr 1.07 arriving with the post on the Girl Pat. Chris Marr is also seen 8.06 mending or making a creel by the yacht club steps not sure who the onlookers are but if anybody knows it would be interesting. The old train station is at 3.16 with the train delivering the latest batch of tourists. And the sadly missed open air pool in all its glory 4.55 with not a seat to be had as the aqua show and gala is underway with I think Drew Kennedy on the trampoline . Not sure who the bathing suit beauties are so if you know that would be a find. Dave Willis at the Pavillion doing what he did for the camera. Golf Club making at 7.38 with my Uncle Charlie Thompson balancing out the club at Ben Sayers factory. Trips around Fidra and the Bass Rock cost 4 bob and 2 bob for a child ( think its £12.50 now ) And the Seabird Center charge £22.00 and £17.00 for a fast track tour. The boats of the time were operated by David Tweedie seen at 10.37 and there were three boats running with the St Nicholas in shot . I think its Tom Brown at the helm of the launch going out to the Bass no doubt making up some salty tales on the way. At 11.23 you can see the line of beach huts on the west Bay. Lovely old film of a time now sadly passed.
