Basseducer Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 VODKAMAN, How close are you to Jakarta? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted January 14, 2016 Report Share Posted January 14, 2016 Basseducer - Many thanks for your concern. 70 miles is not far at all, close enough for me to initiate an escape plan, should things escalate. I live in the 3rd largest city on Java and I live on the outskirts of the city and rarely go into town, so relatively safe for now. The trigger point is if it starts in Bandung. If so, it will take five minutes to pack my bags which are already by the front door. My motorbike taxi is on speed dial and I will be at the airport in 30 minutes. I will move to Thailand and set up there, unless anyone wants an in-house lure designer Dave Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vodkaman Posted January 15, 2016 Report Share Posted January 15, 2016 Archery1 - nothing wrong with what you have written. I must say that the events in Europe are making me extremely nervous. Probably sooner than later, the real fighting is going to start and it is going to be real nasty, and when it does, it is going to have repercussions over here.

Vodkaman Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 Guys - I am overwhelmed with the kind offers. A chance to work with Bob, and maybe develop that CNC duplicator machine that I have inside my head. A chance to build some baits with Mark, share ideas and come up with some new ones, and of course, to fish in Mark's back yard.

Bassinfool Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 We've had the channel in an open room tuned to CNN tonight. Looks like things are still unsteady over there. Hope you're safe and far enough away from all that craziness. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vodkaman Posted January 16, 2016 Report Share Posted January 16, 2016 (edited) Bassinfool - I am on the British Embassy list for email notifications, also monitoring the news for Bandung every 30 minutes. There are terrorists based in Bandung, but there is also a powerful national anti terrorist police called Densus 88. They have arrested more than a dozen suspects in the last two weeks in several raids across the country, including one house raided in Bandung last Sunday. A low-powered explosive went off in Bandung city's main square, Alun-Alun, which is a park area. No one was injured in the blast, but at 01:20am New years was being celebrated with some fervor. Four suspects have been arrested over the New Year's Eve bombing. Police may seem rather sedentary in everyday life, but when it comes to serious crime, they are right on the ball - good to know.

Bassinfool Posted January 18, 2016 Report Share Posted January 18, 2016 Sounds like you're certainly keeping your eyes and ears open which is good to know. I, like you, think this is only the beginning of these kinds of attacks and they're becoming more and more frequent. Stay vigilant and stay safe, that goes for everyone.
