Eastside Urchin Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 Got a text from Laurence's girlfriend Tracy last night at 22.39 to say she was worried about Laurence getting home as everyone was still in the bar drinking etc,I told her to speak to him and to see if he could ask someone to give him a hand somehow,she text back to say he had told her that someone was going to make sure he was ok.I did say to her beforehand that if he couldn't get home to call me and I would pick him up but as he was told someone would sort him out I went to bed and turned my phone into silent as I had to be up at 4am. I get up this morning to find voicemails at 1am & 1.30am from laurence saying he is freezing his tits off at a bus stop when he knows full well there's not a bus for 5 hours. I spoke to his missus earlier who said he got in at 3am as a black cab driver took pity on him at around 2.30am after seeing him waiting there for some time. There was a time when this simply wouldn't of happened but it appears those days have long gone. All he needed was to get to hornchurch or romford so he could get a bus to somewhere within wheelchair distance,could no one if run him down there or had a little whip round to make sure he got home ok?? Yes,obviously he needs to think about future evening away games and whether he can get back from them once the coach gets back and yes I know it's not and shouldn't be anyone's responsibility but he travelled to support the team and personally I feel he deserves a bit better than to be wandering around the bus stops of upminster at 2am,you wouldn't want it happening to a relative of yours.would you ?

Eastside Urchin Posted April 11, 2014 Author Share Posted April 11, 2014 Seems laurence has been telling his missus porkies,so apologies for the above rant. It appears that a few people did ask if he had enough money to get a cab home and he said yes,but for some reason decided to try his luck for a bus even though he knew there wasnt any. The fact that he kept ringing me,suggests that he thought I would give him a lift as I have a few times and if not paid for him to get home from the club on a number of occasions,maybe he just expects that I am always around,but as I had to be up at 4am I wasn't once he had told his missus that he was sorted Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
