SAR heli Aberdeen (BoD) tonight

[Kiltie]

Never good news - including false alarms.

The aircraft has been hovering around the Bridge of Don (North and South of the estuary) for about an hour now.

I hope anyone reported missing is safe and well.

Tino and I were out and about last night around 10:15pm and saw a guy in Tesco express matching this guys description. Wonder if its the same chap?

Tino is phoning the bobbies now see if its any use.

One of my employees is on the Lifeboat Crew and got the shout to join the SAR operation last night. He's just rolled into the office having got home at 5am after an unsuccessful search. He looks shattered, I think he'll be going back home to bed shortly!

He's been found and is safe and well.

Doesn't sound your friend had a good night James!

Yeah, the lifeboat crew are to be admired. They drop everything to go out in all weathers to save people in all type of circumstances. Just last weekend they towed the 3rd yacht that had got into trouble off the coastline in 8 weeks.

It's a shame that their time and the resources were wasted in looking for this individual as he has now appeared onshore alive and well but they need maximum respect for conducting a 7hr search in the pitch black on choppy seas!
