You're never too old to rock and roll!
Two OAP's from Germany nearly gave their carers
a heart attack recently when they went missing
from their nursing home, to attend a Heavy
Metal festival!
First of all I want to give a shout out to
a couple of our loyal viewers and their lovely
comments.
We don't have time to reply to them all unfortunately
but we do love to read them, on our last video
about premature baby Amina, Patricia Lester
said 'HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO A VERY SPECIAL GOD
GIVEN LITTLE PRINCESS.
MAY YOU HAVE MANY MANYMORE.
AND MAY GOD CONTINUE TO WATCH OVER YOU ALL
AND BLESS YOU.' lovely heartfelt words there,
thank you Patricia.
Gordon Richstone said 'I am happy that baby
survived but this world is getting more evil
every day ' Well Gordon it can seem like that
sometimes, but the world is also full of wonderful
and amazing stories like the ones we share
on this channel, so we live in hope!
Anyway back to the fun, so these two pensioners
go AWOL in the middle of the night, and their
carers have no idea where they are, and as
soon as they are dicovered missing the Nursing
Home naturally gets straight on the phone
to the police.
Now the wonderful thing about this story is
that we're not talking about some confused
old-folk wandering off aimlessly in the middle
of the night, mixed-up and walking into a
mosh-pit.
No, this was a pre-meditated and carefully
strategisedmiltary break-out!
How do we know?
First of all, this wasn't a local band playing
down the road at the white horse pub, this
was a major Heavy Metal Festival, the annual
Wacken Festival in Hamburg, Germany, a serious
festival for the most hardcoremetalheads!
So they needed tickets.
And the other thing?
It was 25 miles away from their home, and
police later discovered they had walked and
used public transport to get there.
The two seniors were eventually discovered
at the festival at 3am, reports suggest they
were a little 'unstable'.
I don't know about you but this gives me a
bit of hope for my old-age.
My heart is right behind these two old folks
who knew what they wanted and still had the
courage and the independence to get out there
and live their lives.
Nobody's telling them when it's time to sit
down for a quiet clap-along to some golden
oldies!
These two seniors felt the urge to get out
there and have a bit of fun, and I think that's
great.
When I'm older I don't know if I'll be escaping
to a metalheads festival though.
What about you?
When you're older and relying on others to
care for you, what's the one thing you'd bust
out of the joint to go and do?
