Just thought they were worth sharing. Last edited by Alf; 11-06-2024 at 10:19 AM. |

This Witch doesn't burn

Doctor Hilary Jones has paid tribute to Michael Mosley after his death was confirmed as a result of natural causes.
The 67-year-old's body was found on Sunday following an extensive search on the Greek island of Symi where the TV doctor disappeared after going for a walk. Fellow TV doctor Jones, 70, talked about Mosley's death on Tuesday as he warned holidaymakers to take precautions while in hot countries. Mosley was tragically believed to be just yards from safety when he died following a difficult walk in the heat, and is believed to have suffered from heat exhaustion before passing away. Presenter Lorraine Kelly remarked: "So many people have come out and said you know, he changed their lives, he helped them to change their diets." "Oh, he was much-loved," Jones agreed, to which Kelly asked: "But how much do we know about what actually happened? Because the thing is he was just so close to getting help." "Yeah, absolutely," Jones confirmed. "So the pathologist has suggested that it's almost certain that he died of heat exhaustion or heat stroke. "Clearly, this is a loss of life through misadventure. If he took the wrong turning then that was unfortunate. Michael Mosley Michael Mosley © GB News "But there's a possibility that he challenged himself to be adventurous, he was an adventurous man." "He was, he pushed himself all the time!" Kelly pointed out. "And it may be that he pushed himself in the hottest part of the day, doing vigorous exercise," Jones explained. He continued: "Now, the general advice is you don't do vigorous exercise in the hottest part of the day, you carry water, you don't wear dark clothes - all of which he didn't do." "Like I said, he was so close to safety, wasn't he?" Kelly reiterated. "You know when you see where he was found and how close he was, it's just so sad. But I honestly think you can't underestimate the heat." "Dehydration is very insidious," Jones remarked. "We talk about dehydration a lot, even in this country where it's not very hot. It's not even 20 degrees here, it was 40 there at the hottest part of the day. "So if you're climbing a hill and you're stepping from rock to rock, that parasol he had - his arms would have been trying to balance himself, it wouldn't have been very effective. He was wearing dark clothes.
