General Chat

I have phoned, left messages, got the folks next door to give him a knock, phoned his brother, phoned the hospital..........no flipping sign of the silly old goat.

I am stessing myself silly about him and I bet it'll turn out he's gone out on the p**s.

you can phone the local police and they will go round there for you.
but if they break in and gramps is down the pub then you have to pay the bill for the door as it is not covered by insurance
good luck hope hes ok
Rosex

i hop e he ok
can you not get there and check if theres any sound thru letter box,
how old is grampy

The neighbour has the key - she went in and had a look about. He's defo not in and he never goes out on a tuesday (or at least never has before to anyones knowledge)
Just don't know where he's got himself to!

I used to do that with my mum .Rang everyone,search parties out and all sorts.She had Dementia but always turned up safe somewhere.Keep my fingers crossed for you.

Thanks.
He's only 65 but been in a deep depression since Nan died 6 years ago and is in ill health from the mines so I tend to worry when i can't get hold of him.
Unfortunately, he lives about 90 miles away so I can't go check on him when I want.

our kids did that other day

daughters fella took carpet cleaner back to dads(howie)
back door was open radio was on, he called dad but no reply so he left it in middle of kitchen and went to work,
dad came down stairs(he was making bed, cleaningup stairs) wondered why no one stopped when he saw cleaner,
anyway lunch time here they chatting about it, daughter and her fella, and i says phone gransh see he ok,
daughter does, no reply, no answer phone , she starts to panic,
i suggest she pop up and see him,
no way she says, if hes passed out on floor ill panic,
i said if his back door still open phone me i come up there,
she checks his mobile he answers, thankfully

dad thinks it hilarious we all wonderin where he is

i know its late but give him a ring now, check if he home
im sure hes ok,
he probably took himself out for a walk,
it gets so lonely for them wen they lost partner like that doesnt it

My rellies, living and dead, seem to thrive on stressing me out!

Julie Ann, are you Welsh by any chance?

xx

omg do i sound like it again
i keep typing with welsh accent

if he lived near here id go call on him and see for you squiggle

yeh im welsh

It was the use of Gransh that gave you away!! Whereabouts you from?

Just tried ringing again - no answer.

xx

im in newport squiggle

i think um

give him till pubs shut, maybe someones askedhimfor a pint
if he not home by 1130 maybe phone police ask their advice, they maybe call and check on him
wot about garden, he not maybe sat out there

Ah, we're from Aberfan. Gramps lives in Treharris but I now live in England.
Times like these I wish I lived closer tho - I'd nip down the club and see if he's there!

xx

No, his neighbour checked the whole place for me when I rang them earlier. He didn't answer yesterday either. But the hospital don't seem to have him so i'm trying to stay calm.

xx

maybe he gone and knocked police mans hat off and been arrested, lol

in treharris they all tight knit community, i sure he ok,
ave you got the number of local club he visits,

i getting worried now

Yeah, try to find the number of his club and see if he is there. If not, see if any of his mates are in.

Could he have gone away to stay with some friends or relatives anywhere?

Yeah, i phoned and they've not seen him tonight - he was there on Sunday though.

It is tight knit in Treharris so i'm sure he's fine but he'd left his blind up which he never does if he's going out (scared someone will see his 20 yr old video and break in to steal it, god bless him) and he just doesn't go out on Tuesdays.

Been trying to think if i've missed an anniversary or something but Nan died in Oct so it's not that which has sent him off somewhere.

Lord knows where he's at. He's not senile so he'd remember his name if taken to hopital and the Prince Charles are sure they've not got him.

xx

No, no. He won't go stay with anyone. He sticks to the house cuz that's where he feels Nan is. He wouldn't even come up to stay for my sisters wedding!

xx

I hope he's fine and will keep watching this thread :)
