Man missing in Nerja

Re: Man missing in Nerja
If someone is lost at sea then it would usually be assumed that they were dead. The relatives of the people who died on the Titanic certainly didn't have to wait seven years. The same applies to aircraft lost at sea.
If someone sailed off single handed and the boat and person were never seen again then there would be a 7 year wait.
It obviously depends on the circumstances. In the case of this missing man there is no indication whatsoever what happened. It is perfectly possible, albeit unlikely, that he could still be alive somewhere else.

Yes I agree with the last post - especially as another British walker is currently missing. It is always best to hike with a group some of which (at least) should have good equipment and knowledge of the area.

Re: Man missing in Nerja
Sorry to hear about the probable loss but why a seven year wait to issue a death certificate and dissolve the estate ?
I have lost two good friends at sea and I know for a fact that their wives and families didn't have to wait anything like seven years for a death certificate to be issued or the deceased estate to be settled.
Are there any suspicious circumstances ?

Looks like the man I referred to might have been spotted

No I'm in the best of good health thanks
Have you recently stopped taking you control freak medication ?
You seem to think that you have some sort of authority to judge the content of other members posts and if you feel that it does not correspond to your standards, you also feel that you have the authority to instruct these fellow members as to what they can and can not post.
Who elected you to be the arbiter of good taste in this matter and who exactly gave you the authority to advise me where I could or could not scribble with my 'crayon' ?
With your enquiries about my health, your delusions of grandeur appear to have reached the dizzy heights of believing yourself to be medically qualified. Either that or it was just another attempt to inflame the situation and add more fuel to the fire you started.
If you feel you have anything further to add to this 'conversation' I'd be obliged if you would take it to P.M.s
In the meantime, here's a therapeutic video for you
