Best radio conversation with the rescue services ever...
"OK. What is your position?"
"We're probably about halfway between the port of East London and Durban."
"No, no, no, what are your coordinates?"
Moss had no idea what their coordinates were.
"What rank are you?"
"Well, I'm not a rank - I'm a guitarist."
A moment's silence.
"What are you doing on the bridge?"
"Well, there's nobody else here."
"Who's on the bridge with you?"
"So I said, 'It's me, my wife - the bass player, we've got a magician here…'"

I listened to it on R4 this morning on way to work. Normally I switch off this particular program (Life Changing) as its all a bit meh but I just listened spell bound, deffo worth 30 mins on Sounds if you haven't heard it - they guy was just one of life's legends
