Your dad called me so that we could try to figure out what could be wrong. I think Spot delayed in calling for help was because you were camping so close to a settled area that we were all sure that you would have been able to find help locally if you needed it. I know that you are not prone to panic and that you really must have felt that there was a genuine danger. Next time we talk to Spot I think that we're going to have to give them a telling off. Glad it all worked out in the end!! The funny thing is (not ha ha funny either) was that your parents and I knew of the distress signal because Spot called them.

BTW, I found XM Radio (do they have this in Europe?) to beat Ipods - eventually that 6,031 songs start to repeat, and XM never does. Ride on! Fantastic narrative – I’m humbled.
