This, apparently, was noticed in the Clachaig one night, Glencoe, part of “Open mike night at the bar”.
Suggestions most welcome as to wot I might have been singing? And only 5th, but maybe Eurovision beckons?
Whilst reading “The Buteman”, as Carshare most regularly does, I noticed this.
“A trip of a Caledonian MacBrayne ferry from Wemyss Bay to Rothesay on Monday took an unexpected twist, after the captain received a mayday call about a yacht in trouble.The crew of MV Bute, on its 12 noon sailing, altered course to assist the troubled vessel, aptly named ‘Storm’, after it had capsized, with two people left clinging on to its hull.
A nearby yacht called ‘Bravado’ was in the vicinity and attended the scene to offer assistance, picking up the two crew members.Weather conditions at the time were difficult, with wind gusting up to 50kts, and MV Bute manoeuvred into position to offer shelter while ‘Bravado’ assisted. The yacht took the two crew members to Rothesay and were met by coastguard officials, while MV Bute continued on its journey to Rothesay, arriving 17 minutes later than timetabled. The rescued men – one from Cheshire and one from Stafford – were none the worse for their experience, and we’ve learned that their vessel was recovered and brought back into Rothesay.”
Lurking in Stafford and hoping to avoid recognition has no chance, so best wishes for a speedy drying out, Richard Hakes!
Just wish I could think of a more appropriate Headline – suggestions welcome, and suitable Comments!
