Proofreader of the Skerry Quay tide almanac for twenty-six years. In 2009 she found the printed high-water time for the town slipway had been eleven minutes wrong since 1968, and the whole town has built its rituals around the error: the 6:41 bell, the wedding kiss at the wrong tide. She has never corrected it, and carries the correction in a sealed envelope in her left boot. Widowed from a pilot-boat skipper who always, famously, arrived eleven minutes late.
