Squiggle I'm off to bed too. I hope Grampy turns up safe and well and will ask my angels to guide him home.

Nan's up at Aberfan - and they lock the gates of an evening so he can't be up the cemetery (he doesn't drive so couldn't get there)

Don't think he would take a coach trip - if he's not at the Dan-y or at the Bingo I can't imagine where he'd be. He simply doesn't do anything since Nan died.

His sister hasn't heard from him, nor has his brother. The neighbours don't know either although they did comment it was unusual for him to not be in on a Tues.

Thanks ATM. I'm hoping he's just broken with tradition and is out at the bingo in Merthyr or something.
Fingers crossed.

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

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!

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.

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?

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.

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!
