Chancy Waters

The news of the oil rig support boat capsizing off Shetland waters wi` loss o` life brings home tae us, once more, what a chancy area we live in. Rarely a year goes by withoot hearing aboot a fishing boat, or rig tug, getting intae trouble or becoming a tragedy, as this one has. Me heart goes oot tae the families o` the lost seamen, reported tae be Norwegian nationals.
It can be a fine thing tae romanticise the sea, especially during a storm or gale when she throws her waves at the shores o` oor wee islands and wages war upon the land. But we sit in oor dry and warm hames, and are nae oot upon the water o` her, risking oor lives. The reality is, the sea is a killer wi` a history o` taking lives that goes back til the dawn o` mankind.

i agree with you hermit,the sea does have a romantic aura about it but most people don't realise just how deadly it can be-one minute peaceful like a boating pond,the next huge waves. i remember the first time i crossed the pentland firt ----b****y scary

I for one like to keep my paws firmly on dry land. But I do like a nice bit of fish.....

It's a regular recurrence, Hermit, that anyone who lives or works near or on the seas is only too aware off. I'm very sorry to hear of the loss of life up there.
