He is a security guard, not a social worker.

[CelticBhoy]

That's a sad story. Would seem nobody missed him.

R.I.P Al,

Had a couple of beers with him a few days before. Funny little bloke

No security guards there, Al was the sort of guy who wouldn't show up for a few days at a time. Last seen celebrating his 60th birthday with a few buddies and apparently died that night after returning home as much as anyone can tell.

Hope you finish your book upstairs pal.

RIP for the deceased. As for the above post there always has to be one...

bizarre comment

A sarcastic comment was made about why the security guard had not checked up on this person. I simply stated the fact that security guards are expected to secure the premises not worry about individual guests and their movements. It has since been noted that the apartment in question doesn't even have any security guards.

Nothing bizarre about it at all.

I stumbled upon this topic by accident and it seems strange for that people would debate it and even make some silly comments on it without knowing the facts. Anyway if anyone has or wants to share any information with me about Alan they are quite welcome to get in touch..

My deepest sympathy to the entire family Bren. I was Alan's next door neighbour and was the one that raised the alrm by informing the landlord of not having seen Alan for a while coupled with the fact that by Monday there was a tench in my room which in fact was from his room. He was very strong the last time we chatted, no signs of any ailment. here is my e-mail address <email deleted as per forum rules>. Drop mem a line with your address so that I can brief u with the details. Take heart.
