Er, live in the real world, mate! At the moment I have a relative in Spain on holiday. His mother might have thought he was in that plane crash! He's travelling around only leaving a few clues to where he is.

I remember a few years ago, my Mum recieved a bad connection line from someone. She was going to phone the Mountain rescue coz she believed I was in trouble (I was camping and climbing in the middle of the lake District at the time).

Think about the old, the worried parents, the stress. The Bast**ds who run these services are guilty of genuine grief and a crime.
