On August 13, I walked out to the distant Cockle Bay tide.
About half way, my right foot sunk. I tried to keep my balance but only found mud with my left foot. I tried to balance but my walking stick sunk to its handle.
I fell backwards. Two people were on the beach. Feeling melodramatic I did the “I need help” sign.
They grasped a muddy hand each and saved my life. I asked their names but forgot them.
It was starting to rain, the beach was empty so those young people really did save my life.
