Good news. He has been found safe and well.
Opps, apologies too, I've just realised that I posted this in the wrong thread. Sorry!

He got lost. apparently. Media reports are, as usual, scant on information, such as the distance he was walking? Was he a local who might have known the area or was he a visitor unfamiliar with it, and what if anything was he using for navigation?

Those were the same questions I was asking myself fernman. I mean, Haworth and oxenhope moor were my playground when I was growing up and they aren't that big to get lost upon without being able to go somewhere where there is civilisation.

Glad he's been found safe and well.
... and I'm only posting this because he has been found safe and well....
An excerpt from jo90's link:
"He is described as white, ..... with white hair and white beard. He is wearing ...., a scarlet red jacket, "
Can't help wondering if he is Father Christmas
