It Can't Happen To Us!?

Bush Tucker Man:
Once more a family has had to be rescued from the causeway to Lindisfarne (Holy Island)
They'd apparantly set off to cross a hour & a half after the safety time had passed!!

Okay, fair enough, they're not local but the signs are there for a reason.

I've been across there in the past & wouldn't even contemplate even half an hour before the time posted (or is that just me)


BBC page (& video clip)

One word.........................IDIOTS!

mmgemini:
I was sitting in the cafe on Lindisfarne one day many years ago waiting to be served.
Some people from Liverpool made a shout about wanting to be served.
They did not understand that the tide was coming in and that they would have to wait until the tide went out before they could cross.

Time and tide waiteth for no man.

Bush Tucker Man:
Then of course, there was this other helicopter rescue a few dozen miles to the south-east of Lindisfarne a couple of years ago.
I remember that one being on the news

mmgemini:
Another case of a driver with no common sense.
