LA BELLA VITA

By Bella888

The weather continues

Update midnight: https://www.bournemouthecho.co.uk/news/23559895.girl-boy-die-major-incident-sea-off-bournemouth/

Seems a far more serious incident, than suggested in earlier reports. A man arrested for manslaughter. 2 youngsters dead. 8 others recovered from the sea
————-
a.m. we met ‘P’ in Boscanova to say our farewells. Mr B then met a friend to have an easy hit (tennis) while I wasted time. Then we had an Aspall at 60 Million Postcards before returning home. I was hot and bothered by then.

Heard sirens and a helicopter hovering. Went on balcony to look. A police car and then an ambulance raced by. Transpired there was a ‘Major Incident’ on the beach below. There were reports of bodies in the water - but the latest reports (not verified) describe 3 teenagers getting dragged out to sea, (possibly dived from the Pier?), eventually rescued. One may have had CPR. 2 taken to hospital. Will see if reported in Meridian or BBC South News later. https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home-news/bournemouth-beach-evacuated-rescue-sea-b2349199.html

Blip is of a happier scene of folk enjoying the balmy weather in the Lower Gardens.
