I imagine that the bus companies and the likes did similar. A fantastic effort from all involved. Proud to be a Boltonian (sometimes ;-) ) So glad the little fella's turned up safe.
I'm probably an old foggy (at 46!!) and have no great love for social media but it looks to have made a real difference in this case. Thanks to all those who helped find this lad safely.

And as for life issues I think you should keep your nose out of other peoples business have you never heard the saying if u haven't got anything nice to say don't say anything at all. If u must no how he got out he climbed through his bedroom widow I don't no how he did it but u can be reassured his bedroom window is now locked and I can promise u nothin like this will ever happen again in future keep ir opinions to yourself when it comes to me and my son it has nothin at all to do with u!!!!
Thanks again to everyone who helped we are so glad he is home safe I am glad to be a boltonian it was shocking to see how many people actually care
