Pelley this is a hospital during the siege of aleppo. From the looks it of, maybe a father, a distraught mother, and a child curled up on a gurney. That was an air strike. This hospital was hit 14 times in six months. You work with the understanding that you might dr. Samer attar you work with the understanding that you might find yourself dead, or crippled, or dismembered on the floor, next to the people youre trying to save.

Cooper we first met Chef Jose Andres seven years ago in the wildly popular restaurant hed opened in Beverly Hills. Andres was born in spain, but america is where he became famous for his avantgarde approach to cooking. He has nearly 30 restaurants here, now, but hes barely set foot in any of them in the past two months not since Hurricane Maria hit puerto rico. Andres went to the devastated island a few days after the storm, to see how he could help. He is not a Disaster Relief expert, so he began doing what he does best. He found a kitchen, bought some ingredients, and began to cook. Its a good thanksgiving story because that first day, andres and his small team made about a thousand meals. Since then, hes recruited an army of chefs and volunteers, and together theyve served more than three million meals to the hungry people of puerto rico. andres singing jose andres is always on the move. In the kitchen, which has become his base of operations in san juan, hes a culinary commander rallying his troops. andres singing preparing meals for so many people is a massive undertaking, requiring trained chefs, thousands of volunteers, Assembly Lines of sandwiches 900 on this table alone. Jose andres good ham, good cheese, and a lot of mayo. Cooper theres a lot of mayonnaise here. Its all the more remarkable because none of this was set up before jose andres got to puerto rico two months ago. Andres i arrive monday, right after the hurricane, and i ask, who is in charge of feeding the people of puerto rico . And they told me, everybody. Everybodys in charge. You know, when you have to feed an entire island you need to have one one person and one organization responsible. Cooper there has to be a plan. Andres has to be a plan, and somebody has to be responsible for achieving that plan. Cooper andres came up with his own plan to feed as many of the islands nearly 3. 5 Million People as possible. He started with 10,000 of his own money, in cash, and pockets full of credit cards. How do you arrive at a place you dont know where the food is; you dont know where access to water is. How did it get off the ground here . Andres so for me, it was not difficult. The first thing i do youre a chef, you go and try to find a tchen. Everybody was saying, theres no food, theres no food. Well, that was not true. The big Food Distribution companies had food, because they had fuel, they had diesel. They kept their refrigerators and the freezers working. Cooper there was food here. Andres plenty of food. Cooper what was the problem . Andres the problem was the urgency of now. Its a very simple thing when youre a cook. When youre hungry, you gather the food, you gather your helpers, you begin cooking, and then you start feeding people. Cooper he joined up with a local chef named jose enrique and other volunteers, cooking enormous pans of paella and stews in a parking lot in san juan. It wasnt long before they were making more than 100,000 meals a day. Cooper how did you scale it up that quickly . Andres well, you know one thing, when these moments happen, we have a tendency to think, oh we have to feed three Million People. Almost, the idea is impossible. Cooper it seems overwhelming . Andres its totally overwhelming, but all of a sudden, imagine you begin breaking this. We are going to be doing now 25,000 meals. When you do it well for two days, you increase it to 50,000. And when you do it well, you increase it to 100,000, and all of a sudden, you scale it up in a way that is simple. Cooper thats a big pan. Andres its chicken, chickpeas. We try to put good amount of proteins, rice. Every puerto rican, i love rice. Cooper ingredients are often improvised. They cook whatever they can buy. Techniques are improvised as well. Jennifer herrera says a prayer for puerto rico as she pours oil into each pan of rice. Jennifer herrera translated god bless puerto rico. God bless puerto rico. Cooper the time it takes her to say god bless puerto rico is the exact amount of oil she says she needs. How Many Blessings do you give puerto rico every day . Herrera thousands of blessings. Cooper with the help of private donations and money from the federal government, josee andres Nonprofit Organization world central kitchen has prepared more hot meals than any of the other bigger, more experienced Disaster Relief organizations here, like the Salvation Army and the red cross. Cooper most agencies, if theyre giving out food, theyre giving out m. R. E. s or snacks or, not hot meals. Andres americans should be receiving one plate a day of hot food. Thats not too much to ask in america. An m. R. E. Is very expensive for the american taxpayer. A hot meal is more affordable its cheaper. Its what people really need, its what people really want. They feel all of a sudden that you are caring for them that america is caring for them. Cooper youre not just giving calories youre giving attention to people. Andres the calories are obvious, but this is a message of hope. This is a message, we care, and be patient, things eventually will get better. Cooper that message of hope is one andres has been preaching for weeks on social media. Andres so great. We got a refrigerator and fresh produce. Thank you thank you thank you cooper documenting his efforts to expand operations around the entire island. At the height of the emergency, he had 18 kitchens going at once, and used trucks, cars, and anyone he could find to deliver meals. Andres all of a sudden, i have Homeland Security helping us deliver sandwiches and water in the most difficult areas of the island. I had cooks from the u. S. Coast guard helping us, volunteering. We were having so many different men and women, coming from the federal government, helping us. rooster crowing cooper there are still plenty of places that need the help. In this community an hour south of san juan, theres no electricity. This is the first hot meal this family has eaten in more than two weeks. Andres dedication has inspired others in puerto rico to set up kitchens of their own. In a church perched in the mountains of naguabo, pastor Eliomar Santana and his parishioners cook hot meals for neighboring communities with the rice, beans, and sausages andres has provided them. Eliomar santana we have people here with no water, no no lights. They lost everything in their house, and they have stopped thinking on that for helping others. Cooper so, even though some of your parishioners need help, theyre still volunteering here . Santana yes, theyre still volunteering. Cooper theyre still trying to help other people . Santana theyre still trying to help other people. Cooper before delivering the food to a nearby housing project, pastor santana thanks god, and then jose andres. In the church, when you were praying, you thanked god first, and second, you thanked jose andres. Santana yes, thats very important. But i have to say, always say god first, then jose. Cooper well, joses in good company. Andres presence has not been without controversy. Hes been critical of the federal governments response to the hurricane and, after attending meetings with fema, the federal Emergency Management agency, he called their headquarters in san juan the most inefficient place on earth. Was that the frustration . That it was just bureaucratic . That there were a lot of meetings and you felt like things werent getting done . Andres we were already feeding 100,000 people a day, and i needed their help to make sure we had money to keep buying the food to keep feeding these neverending needs of people in need. And there is where call it red tape. Nothing was happening. Cooper fema did award andres world central kitchen two shortterm contracts worth 11. 5 million to provide 1. 8 million meals, but the agency refused to grant them a third, longerterm contract. Andres thinks the overall response to Disaster Relief needs to change. Andres the people of the federal government are great people. But then its red tape, that sometimes doesnt allow that same people to be successful. I didnt put the name emergency in fema. I didnt. But somebodys going to have to tell me the meaning of emergency. To me, when were talking about food and these the little thing i know is that emergency in food means one thing. People are hungry, and when youre hungry, its today. Cooper fema says, look, to negotiate a big contract, theres a bidding process. You have to have three Different Companies bidding on it. That theres federal government regulations. You say that gets in the way of. . Andres americans in puerto rico were hungry, and we were not delivering food quick enough. And what we did is, we didnt plan. We didnt meet. We began cooking and we began delivering food to the people in need in puerto rico. And what we need to make sure is that next time we are not negotiating contracts. That next time, the federal government is ready to do what they are supposed to do next time Something Like this happens. Maybe an earthquake, maybe another hurricane, or maybe a terrorist attack. We need to make sure we are ready, because the people of america dont deserve anything less. Cooper jose andres passion for Disaster Relief is a far cry from what excited him when we first met him in his restaurant in Beverly Hills in 2010. Back then he was leading a kind of culinary revolution pioneering innovations in molecular gastronomy, marrying science with food in surprising and playful ways. Andres are you ready for this . Because, i believe your life is going to change forever i mean it. Cooper this is going to change my life . Andres maybe. Okay. laughter cooper i dont know why i keep doing stories about food, because i dont really eat much and never really think much about food. But its so interesting to me how, for you, food is at the center of everything. Andres anderson, food touches everything. Food is in our d. N. A. Food touches the economy. Food is science. Food is romanticism. Food is health. Food has many of the opportunities to have a better tomorrow. Cooper that philosophy is at the heart of andres humanitarian efforts around the globe. He founded world central kitchen after the earthquake in haiti in 2010. Andres ive been here more than 25 times, to haiti. Cooper this past june, months before Hurricane Maria hit puerto rico, we met up with andres in haitis capital, portauprince. He supports an orphanage here and has established a Job Training Program for local chefs. Hes also spearheading an effort to reduce the widespread use of charcoal in cooking. Longterm exposure to smoke from cooking indoors on fires kills an estimated 4 Million People worldwide every year, most of them women and children. Andres has provided cleaner burning propane gas stoves to more than 100 schools in haiti, like this one in portauprince. I mean, focusing on stoves, on the idea of clean cook stoves, is not something that a lot of people think about. Andres i am a cook. I feed the few, but ive always been super interested in feeding the many. And when ive seen some of these women doing the change from the charcoal to the gas, everything changes around them. When we see these women cooking in the street with charcoal and we eat the plate of food, we should all be asking ourselves, how that plate of food can really become an agent of change. Cooper an agent of change . Andres a true agent of change one plate at a time. Cooper jose andres spent thanksgiving in puerto rico, continuing to feed people one plate at a time. This has been his biggest undertaking thus far. Andres every time there is a rainbow, you know things are going to get better. Cooper hes scaling back now, as the need for emergency food relief here lessens, but hes already thinking about how he can do it better the next time disaster strikes. Its all popculture trivia, but it gets pretty intense. Ahh. The new guy. Whoa, he looks he looks exactly like me. No. Separated at birth much . We should switch name tags, and no one would know who was who. Jamie, you seriously think you look like him . Uh, im pretty good with comparisons. Like how progressive helps people save money by comparing rates, even if were not the lowest. Even if were not the lowest. Whoa wow. I mean, the outfit helps, but pretty great. Look at us. Wow. I mean, the outfit helps, but pretty great. The all new 2018 camry. Toyota. Lets go places. Psoriatic arthritis tries to get in my way . Watch me. Ive tried lots of things for my joint pain. Now . Watch me. Think id give up showing these guys how its done . Please. Real people with active Psoriatic Arthritis are changing the way they fight it. Theyre moving forward with cosentyx®. Its a different kind of targeted biologic. Its proven to help people find less joint pain and clearer skin. Dont use if you are allergic to cosentyx. Before starting cosentyx you should be checked for tuberculosis. An increased risk of infections and lowered ability to fight them may occur. Tell your doctor if you have an infection or symptoms of an infection. Or if you have received a vaccine, or plan to. If you have inflammatory bowel disease tell your doctor if symptoms develop or worsen. Serious allergic reactions may occur. With less joint pain, watch me. For less joint pain and clearer skin, ask your rheumatologist about cosentyx. Pelley Bashar Alassad destroyed syria in order to remain its president. The dictator, son of a dictator, has committed every war crime on the books bombing civilians, gassing neighborhoods, torturing prisoners. An estimated 400,000 people have been killed in the civil war, and 11 million forced from their homes. Last december, with his allies russia and iran, assad occupied the ruins of aleppo, syrias largest city. Various rebel groups continue to fight, and assad means to break them with another war crime the destruction of hospitals. What you are about to see is difficult to watch, but its worth it, because standing in assads way are courageous doctors, many of them american volunteers, risking their lives to heal the wounds of war. This is a hospital during the siege of aleppo. From the looks of it maybe, an exhausted father, a distraught mother and a child, at left, curled up on a gurney. That was an air strike. This hospital was hit 14 times in six months. This is aleppo again, last year. Al jazeera reporter amro halabi was covering the aftermath of a chemical attack. Once the e. R. Filled up, the hospital was hit. The nursery was evacuated. Then the camera found the neonatal i. C. U. Targeting hospitals is the atrocity that started the geneva conventions 153 years ago, and led to the creation of the red cross. It is the original war crime. Since 2011, there have been more than 450 attacks on syrian hospitals. Emergency medicine has been driven underground. Every neighborhood air strike delivers too many patients, with too little time. Doctors improvise with scavenged drugs and salvaged equipment. So many doctors have been killed, or have fled, that veterinarians and dentists are pressed to do surgery. Dr. Samer attar you work with the understanding that you might find yourself dead, or crippled, or dismembered on the floor, next to the people youre trying to save. Pelley dr. Samer attar is a leading Orthopedic Surgeon from chicago, who volunteers in syrias makeshift hospitals. Attar the bombs would land so close, theyd knock you off your feet. And at times, they would directly hit the hospital. But all i did was look around and follow everyone elses lead, because theyre like rocks. They dont lose their cool, they dont lose their composure. They just keep working. Pelley dr. Attar enlisted in the syrianamerican medical society, which began in the 1990s as a professional association. But, since the revolution, these american doctors have raised nearly 100 million in aid and sent more than 100 members into rebelheld syria, including aleppo, where dr. Attar worked. Attar wed find ourselves doing surgeries, sometimes without anesthesia, on people lying on gurneys in the hallway, because youre just so over stretched. Say hi, everybody. Pelley these are dr. Attars pictures of aleppo. Attar i remember another child that was brought in, she couldnt have been more than five. Her whole body was pockmarked with shrapnel, from her chest to her belly, and one of the surgeons in aleppo, a syrian surgeon, heroically rushed her to the operating room, and opened up her belly, and stopped the bleeding in her liver. But she had lost so much blood. We cant. You cant give all of your blood to save one life, if you can save it to give a little bit each to five, who you know will make it. And i saw that all the time. Pelley did that little girl make it . Attar that girl . No, she did not. Seeing little bodies wrapped in white shrouds with the cloth still bleeding, because the bodies still bleed. Theyd be wrapped in white shrouds and just placed outside, to be taken to be buried. Pelley sixyearold Mohammad Kament was destined for a burial shroud, until a syrian surgeon saved his life. Attar what is his name . Pelley mohammads house had been hit by a mortar, and he became unforgettable to samer attar. Attar i remember him, because he lost his mother and his siblings and both of his legs. The day before i left aleppo, he asked me to bring back robotic legs, prosthetic legs, if i ever returned. And if only it were that simple. He thought that i could deliver them like a pair of gym shoes, and that everything would be back to normal. Hed go back to running around and playing soccer. Basel termanini its the worst humanitarian crisis on our lifetimes, and because those are our own people. Pelley Basel Termanini is Vice President of the Syrian American medical society. Hes a gastroenterologist in steubenville, ohio. He told us the society donated 120 ambulances, pays the salaries of nearly 2,000 syrian staff, equips 135 medical facilities and is building more. Termanini there have been more than 500 attacks on health care facilities. And we have more than 800 casualties from the staff. So were trying to move all those facilities underground. Pelley did you say 800 medical professionals have been killed in attacks on hospitals . Termanini yes. More than 800. I think now its, the latest is 850. There are attacks on hospitals. People are detained, tortured to death. There are shellings also, mostly air strikes and barrel bombs. This is number one killer for the health staff. Pelley who are some of the men and women who work with you inside syria . Termanini those are our heroes. They know the risk in their lives, every day risking their familys life. But they know if they migrate and go out, nobody is willing to provide those services. So then we try to support them. Whatever they need, we try to fulfill. What they need, is to know that they are not alone. Pelley how many trips in does this make for you . Attar this is number four. Pelley we traveled into syria with dr. Attar. The road to aleppo was in the hands of an islamist rebel group known as ahrar alsham. Our route was through idlib, the last whole province still at war. We found a hospital hit by an air strike, but somehow, still running. On the darkened but functioning side of the hospital, samer attar spotted abdurraham ghanim. They had worked in aleppo before its fall, last december. Abdurraham ghanim it was a massacre. Pelley a massacre. Abdurraham ghanim so much bodies, so much injuries, we did our best. Pelley which is all you can do. Abdurraham ghanim yes. It wasnt enough, but what we could do . Pelley aleppos underground hospitals were hard to destroy, so assad tried to root them out by doubling down on his war crimes. We found two witnesses to this. Dr. Farida, who performs cesareans on wounded women and her husband, dr. Abdulkhalek, an eye surgeon. Dr. Abdulkhalek they couldnt destroy this building, so, they used a chemical weapon. In the last two days of the siege, we noticed the smell of chlorine. And we rushed all of the staff, all the patients, to the inner room in that basement. And during this time, many children came to our hospital, and we had just one remaining bottle of oxygen. So, we had to transfer the mask between the children, one small amount of oxygen for each other. Pelley no one died in the chlorine attack, but the gas shut down the hospital for a time. Now, more sophisticated underground hospitals are being built by the syrianamerican medical society. In the countryside, theyre excavating a cave to replace a Regional Hospital that serves more than 200,000 people. The operating rooms are where . The cave was already here. The limestone had eroded away over thousands of years. Then the engineers came in. They cleared out the cave and they lowered this floor about six feet. When the hospital is finished, it will have three operating rooms, 12 inpatient beds, and a stateoftheart emergency room. Attar this is much bigger than the basement i worked in, in aleppo. Pelley the Syrian American medical society has spent more than 3. 5 million on cave hospitals. The moneys come from private donations and the united nations. Fragments from the bomb. Pelley bomb fragments, the little white spots . For every life saved hes going to need several more surgeries . There is a lifetime of recovery. So the syrianamerican medical Society Supports this hospital on the syrian border, inside turkey. It is a safe place for longterm healing. Tamer ghanem a lot of these patients had very severe injuries such as, you know, severe, very extensive burns. Pelley tamer ghanem is a surgeon from detroit who resculpts the disfigured. He volunteers, when he can get away, about a week at a time. Tamer ghanem one of the most important things is the face, is how people identify themselves. But there are also functional aspects to that, things like being able to open your mouth so you can get a spoon inside your mouth, so you can feed yourself. Pelley what can you do for these people . Tamer ghanem its very rare that one surgery would fix everything. Some of the surgeries i cannot do here, just because of limitation of the equipment. Some of these injuries are so horrific that, really, youre not able to rebuild the face back again with the tissues that that patient has. Pelley it must be frustrating for you to see these patients in so desperate a need, and you not being able to help them. Tamer ghanem yes, its very hard. Absolutely. Pelley especially the children. Tamer ghanem especially, i have my own children, and its very difficult to see children, you know, with those injuries, and their parents, and how that affects them. Pelley one of those injured children in the turkish hospital was Mohammad Kament, the same boy from aleppo who asked american doctor samer attar for those robotic legs, three years ago. This was the first time they had seen each other since then. Mohammads prosthetics were supplied by a New Hampshire based charity called nu day syria. We asked mohammad what he wants to be, but we could have guessed. He wants to be an Orthopedic Surgeon. Ill bet youll be a very good doctor. Mohammad kament thank you. Pelley you understand patients really well. Kament thank you. Pelley the syrianamerican medical society says that, over six years of war, it has delivered 100,000 babies and supported almost 400,000 surgeries. Attar whats his name . Pelley why risk your life for this . Attar well, the syrian nurses, and the doctors, the rescue workers that i met, told me that they would rather risk their lives dying in syria, trying to save lives, than grow old comfortably from a distance, watching the world fall apart. And i thought, 20 years from now, i didnt want to look back and say that i wasnt a part of that. Pelley the war against the hospitals is designed to break the will of the rebellion. But as long as some will fight for mercy, there is reason for all to hope. This cbs sports update is brought to you by ford. Im james brown with scores from the n. F. L. Today.

Kroft every now and then, just for the fun of it, we decide to go off to some obscure place that youve never heard of and are not likely to visit. Tonight, were taking you to eigg, or the peoples republic of eigg, as its jokingly referred to in scotland, a country where half the privatelyheld land is owned by fewer than 500 people. A lot of it is tied up in huge estates owned by lairds who often run them as fiefdoms. 20 years ago, after two centuries of servility, the people of eigg drove away their laird and seized control of their own destiny, establishing the first communityowned estate in scotlands history. We wanted to see what theyve made of it. Just three miles wide, six miles long and ten miles off the scottish coast, eigg is part of the inner hebrides, surrounded by the isles of rum, muck and skye at the edge of the north atlantic. It is an ungroomed masterpiece of nature, too wild to tame. A craggy isle of incredible beauty populated mostly by sheep, and the dogs that keep track of them. The people do their best to stay clear, while taking everything in. So whats your average day like . Charlie galli some people would say very lazy. I like to think i just make the hard work look easy. All depends on your outlook. Kroft Charlie Galli is the taxi driver on eigg, and the only source of Public Transportation up and down the islands furrowed main artery. Its a niche he claimed for himself when he arrived from the mainland with his wife and this aging volvo four years ago. Plenty of time to get the feel of the place. You know everybody on the island . Galli i know them and their shoe sizes, and like i say, theres no secrets on an island, so. Kroft so what are they talking about this week . Galli mainly you. bagpipes kroft its not like they dont get visitors. 12,000 tourists came here last year, most of them to spend only a few hours. There are very few places to stay. We were going to be here for days, asking questions about eiggs quirky history, and everyone directed us to maggie fyffe, the island secretary, who landed here 41 years ago after touring afghanistan in a camper. Maggie fyffe i never imagined that i would spend the rest of my life here. Kroft does that mean you like it . Fyffe i think so, yeah. laughs kroft it was 1976, just after the entire island had been purchased by a wealthy english toff named keith schellenberg, who became the seventh laird of eigg. Keith schellenberg welcome to eigg. Kroft under scotlands feudal landlord system, he had absolute power over virtually every aspect of his estate. What kind of impact did he have on peoples lives . Fyffe he had that control over everything. And people, jobs, houses. And he wouldnt give anybody a lease on anything. Kroft by all accounts, schellenberg used the island as his personal playground, lavishly entertaining guests, and driving about in a 1927 rolls royce while most of his tenants lived in poverty without electricity. Was there a rebellion . Fyffe eventually, yep. laughs kroft it started with a slow burn, that burst into flames one night in 1994, when schellenbergs beloved rolls royce met a fiery end, burnt to a crisp like a slice of bacon under circumstances still unexplained. Fyffe a mysterious fire, spontaneous combustion, who knows . Kroft so did you ever figure out what happened to the rolls royce . Fyffe no. Kroft headline writers all over britain couldnt believe their luck. There was scrambled eigg, burnt rolls, and eigg comes to the boil. It went on for a year, until schellenberg gave up, expressing his disdain for the islanders in this bbc interview. Schellenberg i think that my ultimate failure with eigg is that i cant be bothered to try and get on with them anymore. Kroft his final act was to sell the island to a wacky german, who called himself maruma and claimed to be an artist of note and a professor. He turned out to be neither. Up to his beret in debt, maruma stopped paying peoples wages, and within two years, creditors put eigg up for auction. Maggie fyffe and others thought, why not buy the island for ourselves . Fyffe by the time we got to maruma, and two years of somebody that was living in stuttgart and had only visited for four days, it had convinced everybody that we wouldnt have to do very much to do better than what hed done, which was nothing laughs kroft no one in scotland had ever tried a Community Buyout before, certainly not 64 residents on a depressed, undeveloped island with no cash or credit. But lots of people were familiar with their story, and fancied the idea of wee folk taking on the big guys. In 1997, a public Fundraising Campaign brought in 2. 5 million to close the deal. The funds came from 10,000 individual contributors, and one huge check from an unknown woman. Fyffe the bulk of the money came from a mystery benefactor. Kroft a mystery benefactor . Sounds like dickens. Fyffe its a pretty crazy story, really. Kroft you dont know who she is . Fyffe the only string attached was that she remained anonymous. Kroft she ever been to the island . Fyffe not as far as i know. Kroft do you know why she did it . Fyffe i think shes given money to a lot of what she regards as good causes, and were lucky enough to be one of them. Kroft that was 20 years ago. The eiggers and their friends marked the two decades of self rule with a big blowout they call a ceilidh, with traditional music, dancing, and drink. We decided to cancel the next days shoot to allow time for recovery, but 24 hours wasnt enough. What time did you leave the ceilidh . Johnny jobson it was about 8 00 a. M. , i think, when we finally left, yeah. Kroft how long did it take you to recover . Jobson eh, itll probably be tomorrow. Kroft Johnny Jobson first experienced eigg in his 20s, working on a fishing boat as a scallop diver. Since then, a lot has changed. One, there is electricity now, which allowed him to move his wife and family here last year and edit a sports journal online from their tiny cottage. Its required some sacrifices, but they love the beauty of the place, and its eccentricities. Jobson youll look at the scenery or youll see a pod of dolphins come through, and you just remind yourself how lucky you are. Kroft you seem to have a lot of characters on this island. Jobson yeah. Kroft were they normal when they came here . Jobson yeah, not all of us. Kroft dean wiggin turned up in a kayak 14 years ago, and hes still here. Hes very good at fixing things. Jobs are extremely scarce, so you have to bring one with you or use your wits to invent one. Sarah boden its one of those places that really gets into your soul, i think. Its quite enchanting. Kroft sarah boden runs her uncles sheep farm on eigg. She grew up here, then left to work as a music journalist in london where she met her future partner, johnny lynch, one of scotlands most popular musicians. She coaxed him to eigg. Did you think he was going to come . Boden not really, no, because i was living in a caravan at the time and yeah, it was all quite rustic. Johnny lynch yeah, you did look a bit shocked. Boden and johnnys, you know, a proper, suburban, city lynch what . Boden well, youre not a natural country boy, are you . Lynch if you mean, i look after my nails, then, then yes, yes i do. But, yeah, i knew from when as soon as i got here, i couldnt really see a reason for me to go back. And just look at me now. See if you can spell it. Kroft when it comes to the essentials on eigg, there is basically one of everything. One Primary School for five students. One grocery shop where 100 islanders all choose from the same food. And one pub at the tea room down by the wharf, where the best beer is local. Stu mccarthy and gabe mcvarish, who are both married to women who grew up on eigg, got so tired of drinking the mass produced stuff from the mainland they started their own mini microbrewery two years ago. So this is it. Is this legal . Stu mccarthy its legal. Gabe mcvarish its legal. Kroft they make eight different brews, including i am the eiggman, which is very popular with the tourists. Theyre just beginning to turn a profit, but say theyve saved a lot of money drinking their own beer. Are you the biggestselling beer on eigg . Mccarthy thankfully, yes. Yeah, we can say that. Kroft none of these younger people would be here without the islands tiny but unique power grid that runs almost entirely on renewable energy, a combination of wind, hydroelectric and solar, the first time its ever been accomplished anywhere. Fyffe that is the biggest and most impressive project that weve done. Kroft its changed everything, right . Fyffe oh, yeah. Its made life so much easier. Kroft it was designed and funded with multiple grants, mostly from the european union, and engineers from all over the world have come to study it. Like Everything Else on eigg, it is run and maintained by revolving committees of islanders, the only visible sign of any sort of government. There are no offices, no court system, no police. Is there any crime on the island . Galli theres no crime or anything. Kroft never . Galli not that i can remember. Kroft nobodys snatched something or borrowed something . Galli they borrow it, and youll get it, usually within the week, you know. Returned to you, kind of thing. You just dont know where it is at that point in time, you know, when youre looking for it. But it will turn up again. It cant go anywhere. Its on an island, so, yeah. Kroft what happens if somebody gets sick . Galli you basically have to be sick on a tuesday. The doctor comes from skye on a tuesday and spends the day here. And thats, sometimes, weather permitting. Its really rough in the wintertime. Kroft eigg is dependent on boats for everything. When a ferry comes in with fuel and food, people flock to the wharf to help out. Its not a courtesy. Its a necessity on an island where everyone is more or less scraping by. To survive, they have to rely on each other, look after each other, and put up with each other. The island is too small for feuds or lingering resentments. Whats the difference between people who live on the mainland and people who live on eigg . Galli you know, the people on eigg, id have to say, are more evolved. Kroft Charlie Galli, the taxi driver and amateur philosopher, says most people here have done the whole life on the mainland thing and rejected it. Galli theyre all doing their hamster wheel thing, you know. Kroft hamster wheel . Galli you get a mortgage, you get a car, you get a job. You do this and the next thing. And they all get so involved, they forget to look about them and see whats actually going on in life, you know. birds chirping kroft you should know, eigg is not always served sunny side up. As the days get shorter, the windy, Rainy Weather turns to sleet, with gusts up to 100 miles an hour. The boats might not get through for a week, so people keep lots of beans and spam in the storeroom. Even the sheep dogs look forlorn. Boden if you accidentally open your mouth when a gust of winds coming, it involuntarily fills your lungs. Youre like, gasps . Kroft to live here, you have to be resilient, self sufficient and patient, and not just with the sheep. Galli the cows like to go down and lie on the beach, on the sand. And theyll all trail down the road. So you cannot argue with a cow, you know. laughs it wants to do what it wants to do. And youve just got to give it plenty of time, you know. Kroft there are no grand ambitions here and no discernible interest in development despite the sea, the cliffs and the vistas. The owners dont want hotels or a donald trump golf course or hundreds of new residents. Fyffe i think were looking for one or two at a time. I think thats how, how it works here. Then it works a lot better. And weve got time to get used to new people. Kroft we would have liked to stay longer, in this stress free, nonconflict zone where everyone seems to be more or less on the same page but we were out of clean laundry, we had a ferry to catch and hamster wheels to jump back onto. As for the people of eigg, i dont think they were sad to see us go. Where to stay when theres no room at the inn . The pods of eigg. Go to 60minutesovertime. Com. Sponsored by pfizer.
