He was last seen in the <strong>Sandyford</strong> area at <strong>2:45am on Thursday morning</strong> and has not been seen since. He was wearing a<strong> blue shirt, grey cardigan, beige chinos and brown ankle boots</strong>. Everyone in uni is so worried about him along with his family and friends. We are coming together as a university to appeal for his safe return. It is thought that he lost his friends on the night out and tried to make his way back by himself. <strong>Please</strong>, I am begging for you to <em><strong>REBLOG THIS</strong></em>, even if you don’t live in <em>Newcastle, or England</em>. Every <strong><em>REBLOG</em></strong> means that someone else will see his face, they will know who we are looking for, and your followers could be the one to know his whereabouts. <strong>Stay safe Jason, we’re looking for you. <br/></strong><em>THIS WILL NOT RUIN YOUR BLOG! </em></p> <p><em><br/></em><a href="http://tyneandwear.sky.com/news/article/67536/fears-for-missing-student-after-friends-turned-their-back-tweet">Local news report</a></p> </blockquote> <p>PLEASE. Nobody reblogged my own post on this which I posted an hour or so ago so I’m wondering if nobody will now. This guy is my friend. If I have ever sent you a nice ask or reblogged something of yours and it made you happy for a second (or even if I haven’t; this is about helping him, not doing me a favour) for God’s sake just help now, help to find my friend Jason.
