There were indeed some heroes. I was at Cray with one of my friends, an event helper who is a trained first responder. An entrant there was suffering from possible hypothermia, and my friend sprang into action to give her the immediate treatment she needed, a very impressive spectacle. We didn't wait for a minibus, we got her back by car, and she was doing OK by the time we arrived back at Threshfield. This same friend of mine was also in a group that in the early hours went by foot to Capplestone Gate to treat another entrant who had been discovered, alone, virtually blind, and walking in the opposite direction. Many people never made it to bed last night, and I felt a little guilty about retiring to my comfy caravan for a sleep, possibly in excess of three hours.
