Peterhead Port Authority marked the retirement of Harbour Master Capt John Forman with a tea to recognise his 10 years of service to the organisation.

Even before then John enjoyed a long association with the port, having been a skipper for many years landing fish from the family-owned vessel Veracious II. He was also a former Trustee and Vice-Convenor of Peterhead Harbour Trustees.

PPA acting Chief Executive Stephen Paterson said: "We wish John a happy retirement as he spends time with his beloved family and concentrating on driving down his golf handicap."
