Medevac

I didn't actually take this photo although I did 'grab' it. It's a still or grab shot from a video taken by one of my fellow lifeboat crewmates, Gunny, during the second shout of the day for Tobermory lifeboat. The first was just after 0830 this morning, a medevac from a cruise ship in Bloody Bay to the north of Tobermory. My pager went whilst I was still in my PJs working on the computer. By the time I arrived at the station and got kitted up, the lifeboat had just gone, leaving myself and another crewmate, Robin to take our gear off. But as Lifeboat Press Officer, my job didn't end there and once the lifeboat returned, I spent the next two hours writing a press release and editing a video. I'd just got back to my flat and was contemplating a shower and lunch when the pager went again and it was another medevac from the same cruise ship. This time I made the shout.
