Heartland

But she can't cos she's skint and worried about her personal safety. I've already made all the obvious suggestions, but it's not so much about getting her out there as her being with enough people she feels safe with once she's there. She has been following the Sisters around for two months, it will be such a shame if she doesn't make the final two dates. I have run out of suggestions. Help!

I take it Andrew's going too? I'm sure there'll be at least a few people from the other place going...

I think Eva + Andrew S need sedated and taken into a white van on stretchers, driven to a dark place and left for about two weeks... just my take on things

Surely so. After they are back from Brazil. And moreover, after showing so much devotion to the band, they have to get bandmember H.C. in some way.
Something like Dr H.C. Avalanch?

I don't think so. She knows most of the people from there so wouldn't be so concerned if they were.

I wouldn't mess with a 6 foot tall Swiss lady who had an Osama Bin Laden lookey-likey by her side.

And I didn't! I was right behind her at the Glasgow gig and kept getting pushed into her by the folk behind us... when I apologised afterwards for "squashing" her she said "You couldn't squash me! You wish!"

I talked to her in Luxembourg, and it appears the safety issue is very serious indeed. She was advised never to be alone in the streets, etc. I certainly wouldn't tell her to go if that means putting her own safety at risk.

Don't worry. I don't think anything would persuade her to go if the safety issue isn't resolved.

Well, I don't know what to add, but indeed, Eva has to go

I'll tell everyone to persuade her tomorrow

Well, I'm sure she'll find out anyhow, but we Belgians can be very persuading, so

Does the lighting crew need help?

Go, Eva, go!

totally mad idea, make contact with the Brazilian's on list

http://www.myheartland.co.uk/viewtopic.php?t=10879

for example

Too bad *I* can't accompany her - together, Eva and I would most definitely be a force to reckon with! Muahahaha!

I don't think swapping a couple of emails with a complete stranger is gonna make her feel any more secure.

isn't that how you organised the US trip then?

a) they might have local knowlege on hotels etc

b) they might meet up with, and escort her around

c) is better than just putting some random question out in a UK based forum and expecting a coherent answer. ummm. man milk for example. dunno why i bother and with that, he was gone

Better safe than sorry. Both Sao Paulo and Rio have murder rates close to that of Washington, D.C.

It seems that there is but one solution.

Get packing, Francis

No.

paint it black wrote:a) they might have local knowlege on hotels etc

That's what the internet's for.

paint it black wrote:b) they might meet up with, and escort her around

And they might turn out to be mad axe murderers

Good

As Eva is well aware, I'd be about as much use as a chocolate fireguard.

Francis just join her and be the bodyguard

If you can can get in and out of Glasgow in one piece then Brazil should be a walk in the park.

Yeaaaaah, I know that's but one side of the story. But a very disturbing one indeed.

When you get off the train and the newspaper headline is "Pupil stabbed at school" then you know you have arrived in Glasgow.

One of the finest movies ever... By the way, I just asked today one of my -Brazilian descendent - students about that country. She recommended me to travel with someone who was born and raised there, so I guess my chances of going to Brazil (like Motörhead) in a few weeks are zero. She said someone tried to kidnap her father during their last visit.
