I highly doubt the run of the mill BiB have any access to that. Immigration does, so when he eventually shows up at an airport, there's a ping. It's hardly an Interpol crime to not phone your Mum at age 28 is it.My missus would be on the phone every 5 minutes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Hannah Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Chances are he got his phone nicked when he got to thailand.Meets up with other people of his age,A lot of camp sites.You do not need your passport.To soon to worry.Sounds like he,s a back packer.

Rc2702 Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 Surely this story only has legs as a chap recently found dead in or around koh tao (a.apperley) was from or worked in gloucestershire. This one needs to be a false alarm and it sounds a tad premature but you never know! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thailand is a pretty good place to go after a break-up. Considering he didn't tell family he went, chances are he's just not letting life back home bother him sowing his oats.

Andrew Dwyer Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 At 28, young and single, he's probably having the time of his life !! Well I hope he is !! I seriously hope he doesn't pop up in the media again as another tragic victim . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gracas Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 The "man" is 28 years old, its time for mum to pop her tittie out of his mouth and let him go. How many times have there been these reports of son or daughter not calling or no facebook for 10 minutes, then that show up two days later after being at a party.

Many people feel right at home among friends and alikes. This guy have probably been abducted by aliens, but beware! It´s hard to see the differens in some of the bar girls he might meet.

Given the message only said sorry I'd be inclined to think it was someone else. Maybe only word they know in English. Bit strange an English lad just replying sorry in a text unless he was in suicide mode. Nah this guys gotta turn up safe and sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never mind texting and mobile chuffing phones. I went down the pub ! Several years after you but still pre-mobile pre-internet era I did much the same thing. I tried to call home once a month but it was a pain in the arse. There were whole businesses set up in places young travellers gathered that would place the call for you. You had to plan on spending an hour for just a five minute phone call (waiting around etcetera). The lack of convenient communications back to the West really increased the feeling of being very far from home. It is really a different world now, and not necessarily better. As for this guy hopefully he just lost his phone or his battery ran out. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kabula Posted March 11, 2017 Share Posted March 11, 2017 The "I'm sorry," message is more than a cry for help, or a planned, alcohol bender. The future outcome may be very sad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
