DJ Derek is missing

Oh no? Really?

Well, I'll keep an eye out for him while i'm still in Devon but lets hope he's found fit and well soon in his hometown and preferably be there when I move back bless him.:(
 
Does sound very worrying. I used to see him around quite a lot.

I walked into Brewer's Droop earlier today and the owner, Mike, was serving. He looks a bit like DJ Derek at a glance and I thought 'So this is where you've been hiding!'
 
Crap. That's really not good. What a horrible, shitty thing for his family to have to go through.
 
what I don't get is..if he collapsed somewhere as a result of his head pain say...why hasnt'/didn't anybody find him? :confused:

Maybe he fell in the docks. It's the only thing I can think of. The manager of the Commercial Rooms did that a few years ago.

Possible. Vut have been pretty busy around the docs though this time of year on a Friday. Not sure he have gone near the docs if he went straight back from corn Street to Saint Pauls.

He might have gone down there to get some fresh air, if his head was hurting. I agree though it would have been very busy and it seems strange that if he did fall in, nobody would have noticed.

When it happened to the manager of the Commercial Rooms it was after he finished, so would have been a lot later.
 
a mate of mine has a theory that he's just nipped off to JA to pick up some new tuna. thats the theory i'm sticking with.
 
How many places are there to disappear by accident around there? Or between lewins mead and there? I can't think of any really. And i can't see him scaling one of the construction sites fences.
 
It's really all quite odd. Practically impossible for him to go unnoticed this long if he's been out and about, he's very well known locally.
 
Well, according to an article in the Independent, the police think he got on his bus and got off at Sussex Place. Then instead of turning into his road, Albert Place, he headed off "towards the BRI". Now, Albert Place is nowhere near the BRI so why do they think he was heading there? Presumably just supposition because of his headache. So he was last seen nearish to his house, either heading along City Road or Ashley Road.

Eh? So he got a bus from town, past the BRI, got off in St Pauls and then they say he "headed towards the BRI". So back the way he'd just come then. How far do they know he got? If it wasn't very far then all that means is that he was walking into St Pauls. Really odd way to phrase it.
