Gorse

Last nights incident was technically challenging due to the location and terrain.

Whilst the team set up, the next task was to cut a track through this lot! Its amazing what you can do with a spade and a metal stake! (oh and you need a Rid, who attacked the gorse very well). Gareth pointed something out about the countryside act......I quoted the Coastguard Act of 1925.....Coastguard allowed access anywhere to save life (I hope!)

Not the best photo, but this is Eric on the cliff edge, the blue tarpaulin was placed over the gorse on the cliff edge, then Austen just walked over the top of it all and over the cliff to the man and his dog.

Having arrived, and with light fading, Austen confirmed lifting the pair out of the gorse would be to dangerous so Rescue 106 was requested.

If we can get the video sorted, then it will be down loaded on to this blog soon.
