George (2)'s musings



This story is about a 22 year old man called Callum MacKay who decided to go swimming in Angalesey at Cable Bay in challenging conditions on the 24th of august last year. His friend, Lewis Darroch, who had not intended to go swimming saw his friend in trouble so he dived in to try and help him, Callum MacKay was washed out to sea and when Lewis Darroch tried to get back to shore the waves were to strong and he had to give up and he was washed out aswell.


Mr Darroch was recoverd by helicopter but was pronounced dead on arrival at the hospital, Mr MacKay's body was found a week later. Mr Darroch was nominated for a posthumous bravery award by the carnegie foundation.


A story from the Bible which is a bit like this is when Jesus calms the storm however in this story everyone survives but in Angalesey 2 men died and one of them died in an act of kindness which is sort of like Jesus being crucified on the cross for mankind.
