...rescued an Emo โ—

We were riding along Fletcher's canal to Nob End with the river to our left, down the embankment, when we happened accros a skinny Emo (sister's jeans, silly pumps, hoody etc) who had been climbing the retaining wall with his girlfriend who had slipped. He was at the top holding her by one arm and she was dangling over the edge of the drop.

Me and my mate helped to haul her up (dragging her through a bit of mud in the process ๐Ÿ˜€ ) then set off on our way leaving them sat on the bench at the top shaken but fine.

Don't know how long they had been there.

Was it down Fletcher's canal? I rode down there last Tuesday and saw someone dangling. I thought it was unusual, but couldn't stop as I had a pie in.

If we'd know they were Emo we wouldn't have bothered. We were committed to our act of heroism before we got a good look at the silly pumps.

To turn back at that point would have made us look daft.

No idea WTF they were doing there. It is a cold blighted spot in the middle of nowhere and it was peeing down.

I've walked along the path that ends with that retaining wall. It's a very long path and I was tempted to climb the wall.

but I had the dog with me and the wall is very, very high. so I walked back again, muttering.
