The slight incident referred to in George's post was explained to us by Graeme at Herga last night. It was reported by the BBC here . As it was, fortunately, only a slight incident without serious damage or injury, it didn't seem entirely inappropriate to commemorate a singer with a wonderful sense of humour whose last song in public was "Reach for the gin". The BBC didn't report this bit, but apparently the lifeboat was launched before it was known that there was no-one in distress.
