Difficult day

An inhabitant of  Grimsay has not been seen for four or five days and this has now been reported to the Police. Today with the coastguards and the fire service, a search was organised including volunteers from the local community.
It was good to see over twenty people turn up and walk over the local moorland and coast.  The bad news is that no trace of him was found. 
With divers, a helicopter and a lifeboat involved, it was clear that there are real concerns.
Th eilsand is still ocvered in Snipe, tihs one trying to hide on the shore but keeping a watchful eye out.
