Island man missing in Thailand

Michael Spall.

A FORMER prison worker at HMP Isle of Wight is feared missing in Thailand.

Friends of Island man, Michael Spall, known as Mick or Micky, are extremely concerned for his welfare after failing to make contact with him for more than eight months.

Mr Spall, 70, a keen golfer and powerlifter, retired from the prison service, where he worked as a maintenance man, and moved to Sirin, where he married a Thai woman and set up home with her and her family.

Last year, Mr Spall who lived in Newport and played at Newport Golf Club, returned to the Island to transfer his assets to Thailand and told friends he had no plans to come back.

His friend and former colleague, Stephen King, went to visit him in Thailand last November for a golfing holiday.

However, he failed to track him down and now, months later, there has still been no contact from Mr Spall.

Mr King, who lives near Ryde, stayed with a friend in Pataya and tried contacting Mr Spall numerous times by telephone.

"A week before I left the Island, Mick phoned me to warn me about the floods in his area but, at the time, his village was fine but he complained about the number of 'strangers’ who had started residing in t
he village.

"When I arrived in Thailand I tried calling him several times but I was met by a Thai voice who put the phone down each time. I was disappointed not to see him but at the time I was not overly concerned.

"Recently, many of his friends on the Island have contacted me asking if I had heard from him. "He did not contact anyone around Christmas or New Year or for birthdays, which he always does. It has now been several months and we are very concerned," he said.

Mr King, who believes Mr Spall’s sister could still be living on the Island, has contacted the Lucie Blackman Trust, which helps find missing people abroad.

Matt Searle, from the trust, said: "We are unable to disclose details but we do need to speak to a family member urgently. If anyone has any information about the family, call 01983 718802 or e-mail
[email protected] in confidence."

his marriage must have been registered and so they can find the name of his wife and track her down...

Probably the will/inheritance will yield a few clues.

Missing or Wanted?

70 year old retired Brit moving to a Surin village must be like a drop of honey being dropped into an ant's nest.

He's been dead for months, however i think you'll find his monthly pension payments will have been drawn out the ATM since his death

Look at the hideous beast -- more like a soap-dodging turd.

Crocodile farm?

His mate seems a dumb fuck, no wonder he couldnt find his friend

**BugginOut** · 08-09-2012, 10:12 AM

Where's Sirin? Maybe that's why he couldn't find him...twat. Leave him alone.

**Tom Sawyer** · 08-09-2012, 07:59 PM

Yes, RuralSurin should be able to ask around a bit

**Panty Hamster** · 08-09-2012, 09:45 PM

Any old brit is a bloody chore. A serious burden. A whining wheezebag full of hateful angst and bile and dissatisfaction and poisonous spittle spewed forth from decidedly green teeth (assuming some remain). A disaffected, marble-mouffed failure relegated to his teerak's backwater paradise.

A drop of honey indeed. LOL -- you fekkers make me laugh.

**taxexile** · 08-09-2012, 09:53 PM

What does marble-mouffed mean?

**Tom Sawyer** · 08-09-2012, 11:04 PM

British dentistry most likely.

Hey Texpat, you miserable putrid streak of paralysed piss, if you weren't a septic spunkbubble looking for a condom you'd have all the attraction of a colostomy bag but without any of the wit.

How them apples grab you, dickwad mofo spastic jerkweed.

**navydoubs1977** · 08-09-2012, 11:47 PM

I just hope he hasnt been to the Croc farm!

**Panty Hamster** · 08-09-2012, 11:49 PM

Hurt your fragile feelings as it may, any English twat in Thailand today is far more likely to be a scamming, scheming, law-dodging, ManU-singlet wearing, tattoo-riddled, marble-mouffed fucking moron, than a honey drop on an anthill.

Sorry to burst your ridiculous self-image. You twats are the scourge of this place.

It would be FAR better without you.

Yeah bet the original residents were chuffed to see him move in too!

**Dillinger** · 08-09-2012, 11:53 PM

must be great having a mate who will come half way around the world to look for you,

bit sad when he goes back though and tells everyone you were nowhere to be found on the Island of Thailand
