Abstract

Lis Cook, a Shetland-based district nurse/midwife, was in the middle of a well-deserved holiday on January 5. The excitement of the New Year festivities was beginning to wane, the weather was ferocious and she was wondering how to keep her four children occupied. A friend rang with the answer: a dramatic air-sea rescue was being mounted just off the west coast of the South Mainland where she lives. This type of rescue is usually spectacular, so Lis quickly got her children into the car and drove to Garths Ness to watch the action. By the time they got there, it was obvious that no rescue was on the go.
