I wondered only yesterday - his last post was 20th April.
but his frequency had dropped off last month - before that was 13th.
Hope he is well.LittleBill wrote: »Should we send out a search party ... ?
Anyone frequenting this thread from Exeter ?
Know a 63 year old paper boy (newspaper roundsman) that's gone missing ?
Perhaps he's been kidnapped by another money-saving forum.
Or perhaps Tesco &/or Asda have had him bumped off !There are 10 types of people in the world. ‹(•¿•)›(11)A104.28S94.98O112.46N86.73D101.02(12)J130.63F126.76M134.38A200.98M156.30J95.56J102.85A175.93
