Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Worried about my lad (even though he's 26).

He's just moved to NZ for a year, after 2 years in Oz, and he was in South Island where Typhoon Gita hit over the last few days. They've declared a State of Emergency in the region where he is (Nelson).

I'm sure he's fine, but we just haven't heard from him for a few days (which happens frequently, as he goes camping with his mates), but not being sure isn't fun.

Doesn't matter the age - you never stop worrying about your kids.

Hopefully you'll hear from him shortly.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

l hope and pray that contact is made soon Hugh as l suspect lines of communication will be pretty poor at the moment given the Typhoon aftermath and the State of Emergency.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Hugh no matter the age of your children, they’ll always be little in your mind.

I hope you manage to contact your lad soon but as den has stated lines of communication will be pretty poor at the moment.

:hugs:

Hope you here soon and it will put your mind at ease,

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Hope you don't have to wait to much longer to hear, they're a constant worry no matter how old they get especially when you can't keep an eye on them

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

we got a message at 3.36 this morning - he’s fine.

They were blocked in by landslides, but a local farmer cleared the road.


My son said the winds were a bit ‘interesting’ at times, but all’s well that ends well - another experience for him.

Thank you all for your kind thoughts.

Oh Hugh that is the best news ever :)

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Thats good news. I worry about mine, even though he's only 20 miles away !

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

My parents worry about me and l am the other side of half a century.:)

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Great news, What a worry of your mind,

My moan is I have water leaking badly when I empty the water from my kitchen sink and it is under a cupboard, Waiting for the Plummer to arrive, More expense but it has to be done,

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Sorry to hear about your leak nash as l hope it gets sorted ASAP.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Playing catch up and so glad that your son is safe and well Hugh.

Our son was caught up in the Manchester IRA bomb attack and not knowing whether he was safe was a nightmare so I really know what you must have been going through.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Well, work was a disaster last night. Facing a disciplinary next week potentially. Oh dear. I won't go into details, apart from saying I am being blamed for equipment being broken when it wasn't me who broke it.

Re: Moans and Pet Hates part 8
 

Don't let them blame you for something you did not do Mark as you must stand your ground next week and make it clear that you did not break the equipment.
