What were these folk thinking?
Local news reports tonight that climbers (4 iirc) are having to be rescued from Ben Nevis by the Lochaber Mountain Rescue Team. A rescue helicopter is standing by but is unable for assist for the time being, given the force of the wind which incidentally has a chill factor of -20 degrees.
Also, divers off the West Coast have to be helped - one of the party has died despite the best efforts of the Rescue Services.
You couldn't make it up......
