Dear Lucille,It is 11:00 here and I just received a phone call from Thomas's boss, asking whether he had left for work, as he hadn't come in yet. He asked if Tom had a mobile. But he doesn't. Later in the ticker tape below the local news broadcast, I read that there was a fatal traffic accident in Vianan, in an area that Thomas might pass through on the way to work. Recently, he had to change his route into Rotterdam, so naturally I am wondering if he is Okay, as he would have no way to notify anyone, if he needed help. I'll call his work in about an hour. But communication might break down, while I sort out what might have happened. So I am writing this to let you know, what might be happening here, in case, I am no longer able to communicate by email, etc. I sure hope he is Okay.
