I always laugh at the social media 'appeals' that you usually see on a Sunday afternoon for a lassie who went out the night before and hasn't come home. 

Calm down, she's getting pumped, she'll be home in time for Match of the Day 2 but her fanny will be absolutely howling.

I've never slept in a bin yet, but I imagine there are less comfortable places to doss depending on circumstances. 

I've been fortunate to have only slept rough three times so far. Paris, Wigan and Edinburgh. All single nights and all self-inflicted through a combination of lack of planning and stupidity. 

Lifeboat, disused train carriage, station platforms, cars, etc and an attempt to shelter in a grit bin...it wasn't much use.

I think that was always likely the case I just don’t know why they weren’t able to find her. It’s not like the currents are that strong around the beach there that she would have been swept that far out to sea without being washed back up somewhere.
The lad from Musselburgh seems about the same - he was last seen getting his hair cut on north high steer and then nobody has a clue. The dad was offering a £1k reward for any info but it didn’t seem to be getting anywhere either.
 
The guy from Musselburgh has a long history of drug problems, the rumours going around was that he'd OD'd somewhere but I'd have thought his body wouldve appeared somewhere by now if that was the case.

My younger sister had a mental health crisis and was reported missing about six months ago.

It was honestly one of the scariest things I have experienced. The whole time between finding out that she was missing and her being found by the police was agonising.

I posted an appeal online and some of the comments from some people were disgusting. I honestly wanted to smash their faces in with a brick. 

The horrible things people say online for a few likes is horrendous. If you haven't got anything useful to say, then say nothing and scroll on.

I attempted a disused train carriage in the Wigan Casino all-nighter debacle. Unfortunately it was a guard's van.

I might give this a go later: The Vanished Podcast

Not massively into true crime but I do like a mystery

Pretty good listen usually, I'd also recommend this one; https://www.trailwentcold.com/

The Allan Bryant case in Glenrothes is a strange one, seems like there are some solid suspects but police in Fife seem to have a history of either being corrupt or just massively incompetent

Gill family disappearance - Wikipedia

Interesting ages of the father, mother and four children.

You could go insane looking at that list, wondering what happened to people.

Good grief! You’ll end up like Busta, always looking over your shoulder.

Did a P&B poster not post similar on one such appeal?

It was @Busta Nut on Twitter. IIRC the missing girl was from or had some connections with the travelling community.

Can’t remember for certain but think our Motherwell supporting chum might’ve been threatened with violence and death.

Yeah I defo was. I was saying these things before it was kool.

Obviously a bit daft and I woulda looked stupid if she did end up dead but turned out I was right.

😄

Am I remembering correctly or imagining that there were threats made by travellers?

Yeah that's correct, I think the last time it was mentioned I dug out the old messages on my facebook (f**k knows how they linked it) The wee bit where there is messages you might never see unless you go looking for them.
