Rescue

I went out to Glencaple to see the tidal bore on the River Nith and to my surprise there were people walking across from both sides of the riverbank, the water was only about waist deep but it was still very risky to attempt it.  The group of young lads on this boat found themselves on the wrong side of the river after the tidal bore had charged past and they could not swim back across. I watched with my heart in my mouth as they made a couple of attempts to swim across but fortunately, they must have decided to walk upstream to the nearest bridge.  To cut the story short a couple of guys went out in a motor boat and brought them back, so it all ended happily on this occasion.
