Yacht on fire
Just now on Sky news
A drifting yacht in the Caribbean has been found on fire.
The captain of the yacht was a William Gardner and he was in the liferaft alongside the yacht.
Police are looking for his Norwegian (female) ship mate.
I know that with the names this may sound a bit like our William doing a bunk from his Blackpool café but it is absolutely true.
