Desperate is the word. Today Hardeveld tried to get behind the crush barriers, she called the fire brigade and asked security. Even if it’s just to get behind the crowd barriers so that Gompie can walk towards her, she doesn’t have to enter the building. The fences are covered with black tarpaulin, so the chance that Gompie will see his owner is nil. “And you can hear the generator on the other side of the building. It doesn’t go down there either.”
