A rather unusual day?

The pager went off at 09.08, I phoned in to be told to get the team together and head up to Emmitts Hill at St Albans head, there is a report of a car over the cliff.

This is serious and someones life depends on us.



We arrival on scene and get a briefing from John Bugler the Station Officer from St Albans



Its amazing in an area of outstanding beauty that there has been such an incident.
