Very interesting, if true. A stateless person, monk, hero and all round good guy. Hope D.T gives him a green card, he deserves one.

I haven't followed this too deeply, but did he just find the bikes and go in, leaving others to discover that everyone was in there?

They are out against all odds and down to guys that will receive little but the knowledge that they made a difference. How many of us would risk our lives in that way for little or no gain for people we don't know?

As you get older, life looks more fragile, you risk less and think of everything you now have to lose!

Way I heard it from the coach who was interviewed on the radio, the coach with them is the assistant coach and a really nice guy. The coach reckoned the boys would have convinced the assistant coach that they always went so far in and it was safe, the assistant was unfamiliar with the caves did not realise the risks.

Can't relate to that at all, in fact I probable feel the opposite way.

Apologies to Hairony above^^

It now appears that there was an assistant coach and a head coach and one went in and the other...

Now I'm confused too.

Happy Days

So we ‘get to’ stay in Europe but we have to have our teeth and claws removed and be castrated as well. Sounds like a great deal.
Hopefully no one will notice eh?.......
