Sunday Update

Sunday, and the team’s first cliff job of the year.

Fallen climber at Anvil Point Lighthouse. Coastguard Rescue Helicopter 106 was on scene to winch the casualty and casivac to hospital. Simmons and Kitching secured the area and took details. Basically we didn’t want any climbers being blown off the cliff top by the downswash from the rotors.




Last night John and Rid were called out at 01.30am to a chap who after spending the night in the pub decided to go swimming. Not the best idea, still at least he got home safe, I believe the operations room will be calling him today to discuss his/their thoughts on the situation.

So after two jobs in 12 hours the MRU is now dirty and will need cleaning again!
