Missing Martin Cooper is back with his family after disappearing for more than 24 hours.
The Chronicle told on Tuesday how police and relatives were searching for the retired English teacher who vanished from his Whitley Bay home on Monday morning.
But his family has now confirmed he was found in Scotland on Tuesday evening.
Dad-of-three Martin travelled back to Tyneside on Wednesday and is now back home with his wife, Mary.
Martin's son Joe has told of his relief.
The 38-year-old said: "He's been found safely near Fort William. We were extremely worried."

Can anyone shed some light on the work going on at the old elliots garage site? Someone told me that there is going to be a old folks home built there, then someone else told me that the planning permission for that fell through.
I have searched the council websites for info but they havent come up with much as yet.
If it is going to be a residential home, which company is it for? I can find the name of the building contractors but not the actual company who they are building it for ( if they are building anything at all!)
Any info would be very much appriciated.
Do you think we could recreate Bedlington Front Street from years ago by using old pics ?
I think it would be worth doing.
Malcolm , i reckon it would be good for your project. What do you think.
an example
here's two pics , we could add on to these and re-create the street if we could get enough pics from that time
