Message 874694 - Posted: 11 Mar 2009, 19:12:29 UTC - in response to Message 874634.  

Vaaiirry interesting so far.
I created a new username and password, ran the clicks in supermode and added two minicity links (dvoraksociety and dacomville) and one miniville I happened to have lying around (believe it or not, another dvoraksociety, situated in Brittany, which I thought was nice).
I have logged off that username and logged in with my new ones and found that my three "new" links are still there. All I have to do now is wait and see if someone tries to delete them in 20 hours!

I have heard from the UAE. Whiskey is alive but I do not have all the information for a full story yet. If anyone wants to see the correspondence between me and the British Consulate in the UAE , please PM me and I shall copy what I have.

Please give him your prayers and, if necessary, your help as well once things are properly established.

Welcome back Mark. Wish we could say the same for Whiskey!

I still do not have all the particulars but Whiskey has met with some sort of accident and is in hospital in Sharjah. British Embassy staff have been to see him and they are trying to arrange his repatriation to the UK.

They have suggested that help may be needed but precisely what, where, when and how I do not yet know. He has been so much help to so many others that I hope we shall be able to rally round him when the time comes. Your organisational skills could ne needed!

Its really lucky that we have superior officers with more experience to sort these things out, at the end of the day, men are very good at listening and recieving orders for the progression of their careers and civilian situations.

A rank system is probably the difference between a chance of life or a very disorganised ending.


I'm 37 and give thanks that men can appreciate such things.

Quite so. Render unto Caesar that which is Caesar's.

I have just received a message to say that Whiskey has had a fairly serious "stroke" and needs long-term rehabilitation in England. He has given permission to the Consulate staff to discuss his case with me and I expect a telephone call tomorrow (Wednesday 25th March) so that we can talk about his case and what is needed for him.
More news some time tomorrow, then, but please do stand by to offer some sort of help if at all possible when the time comes.
This message will be copied to several more Seti@home people and please feel free to copy it on to others yourself.

Hello Everyone,
I'm a member of the seti@home UAE Residents'team.
here's an update on John Walker.

I visited Johnnie at the Kuwait Hospital, Sharjah, the day before yesterday. He's been there for over a month. Johnnie is paralysed down his right side, and cannot speak intelligibly. He smiled and tried to talk to me, but,like I said,he cannot talk intelligibly. It was very distressing to see him like this.

Johnnie's well-wishers are trying to get things sorted so that he can be taken back to the UK. There are some complications with this, but things are working out.

I shall, hopefully, be visiting Johnnie again tomorrow,and will give you the latest update on what's happening as and when I get more info.


Best regards,

Debbie
