Madeleine McCann: The Witnesses See, A Sketch And Killer Bob
MADDYWATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY MAIL: “Madeleine: Four witnesses say they saw suspect pictured in new poster campaign”
“Four key witnesses in the Madeleine McCann investigation could have seen the man shown in a new sketch of a potential suspect, it emerged yesterday”
But there were no witnesses? And “could” and “potential” in one line…
“But four witnesses may have seen the unidentified man - first on the night the three-year-old went missing, then later with named suspect Robert Murat, and finally in Morocco”
“Jane Tanner, who told police she saw a man carrying a child away from the McCanns’ apartment, said she was “80 per cent sure” he was the one depicted in the artist’s impression”
“Isabel Gonzalez, who said she saw Madeleine with a Berber woman in Morocco, said the sketch looked ‘very similar’ to a man she saw immediately after the sighting”
Amanda Mills, 34, from Basildon, Essex, claimed to have spotted a man trying to break into a bedroom window at the Ocean Club in Praia da Luz a week before Madeleine disappeared from the complex.
“Last night she said there are “strong similarities” between the man she saw and the new sketch.
“Nanny Charlotte Pennington’s description of a person she saw with Mr Murat also matches the man shown in the artist’s impression”
DAILY EXPRESS: “New manhunt ‘another diversion by McCanns’”
One Portuguese policeman “stormed”: “The purpose of this exercise by the McCanns is the same as always. It’s another diversionary tactic”
DAILY STAR: “YOU WON’T THROW US OFF THE SCENT”
“Cops blast Maddie sketch as McCann tactic”
DAILY MIRROR: “Madeleine witnesses: This is him”
Witnesses says the sketch cold be a picture of the man they saw. Or it could not be
DEFAMER: Or does the new sketch of the man suspected of snatching young Madeleine McCann look a lot like Killer Bob?
NEW YORK POST: “SKETCHY SUSPECT IN MADDIE MYSTERY”
A picture of the man and he caption: “WANTED – SOUGHT IN KID SWIPE”

C’mon Stiggie, tell us, we need to know!”
One minute I’m - “an ol’ fart with short-term memory loss who’s in need of a few bucks” - and the next, I am significant player who’s ‘reappearance’ is a harbinger of momentous events!
Well my news is that a certain mob have cocked up again and we are all going to suffer the consequences - again.

Fair,
The thought has crossed my mind also many, many times [OB]
However I’ve seen so many contradicting stories in the papers, I decided not to believe anything anymore unless I hear a real quote of Rebelo or the prosecutor. I’m afraid I have to be patient for another couple of months.
PS: I loved the “wife”

Microbial genocide.
Well, at least that’s the broad intention, though it’s unlikely to be wholly successful.
Just as well, really, since enough antibiotics to kill all the bugs would kill me along with them.
However, with luck I’ll reclaim the bits of my lungs currently overly colonised and revert to a state of mutual co-existence.
A bit like Anorak, really…

Glad you’re feeling a bit better
Laptops/computers in hospitals. Brilliant! So how come we can’t use mobiles….??
Grrrrr
Anyway chin up & I hope you’ve had cheery visitors to get you off Anorak now & again!
I was going to do so much today but…didn’t happen! At least you have a decent excuse, I don’t!

I apologize to anyone who’s seen this twice …. but wanted to say it again before taking the dogs to the park … I’ve been doing this type of analysis for about 10 years. Try it. It works.

Photo analysis of the day ….
To read a photo, cover the left side and go with your first impression of the right side only. In Gail Cooper’s case, with the Daily photo, you should cover her hand too, because it is very distracting!
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/pages/live/articles/news/news.html?in_article_id=509285&in_page_id=1770&ICO=NEWS&ICL=TOPART
Gail Cooper’s face is probably the hardest I have ever tried to read.
Her face has very deep folds and eyes very deep set–obscuring a lot.
But my first impression is that she’s a “tough bird”, a scrapper, and will stand up to someone/something in her way.
There’s also a little touch of amusement at the attention she is getting.
My overall impression is that she’s not lying. She’s just a tough little scraper doing her part to clean up the streets, as she sees it.

I’d collect some posters if I were you. In years to come the “official” Madeleine posters may be sold on E-Bay for many times face value. God knows what the wristbands will be worth.
———————————————-
For some strange reason the hospital in which I am currently residing is not offering any of these items for sale.
Hence my disappointment at the promised poster blitz failing to materialise; I was thinking more in terms of a modern art installation than a genuine attempt to gather information…

Yes I remember now!
Re ”the” bag. I had to chuck it (pun intended!) so a new one is required. Hopefully (love you loads puke puke) not too soon though. However I bet soon……!
Re the topic in hand….I still say that O’B was the ”bundleman” & perhaps it was not only their child that was ”ill”….if you get my drift??
IMO blah blah..

The domain was registered in Belgium. It doesn’t look like an Infohost site to me. Could be wrong of course but I think it looks independent.

I hope syou’re right. Thanks. But shouldn’t there be a spanish version, why english and portuguese? Don’t understand infohost bit but I wouldn’t discount a team member being in Belgium, they’re all over the globe!

Hi, how are you feeling today? Are you going to be in all the week?

Much better, thank you.
But yes, it looks as if I’ve got another five days to go.
Hence my grumbling about Clarence’s failure to provide the promised blitz of a million posters; I was looking forward to that…

Fair,
I hope you clean it before passing it!
Friday clue was “ice cream” remember Patch saying “let’t lure him out. Ice cream anyone?”
So I asked “should I take a cup of coffee with chocolate or an ice cream?” The chocolate was a diversion.
I’m also doing other stuff in between posting. Mr T is abroad [again]. Puppy, dogs and cats gathered around me and staring at me. I don’t know why??????

The McCanns have exploited everyone who has come in to contact with them. They do not give a damn whose lives they ruin as long as they can cover their own evil arses. With a little help from their friends. This so called, Team McCann must be the most despised team on the planet.

Hi! I really really really needed ”the” bag earlier. Maybe that’s why I did other things.
Clue? Friday? Maybe (I think) but that was soooo long ago, could mean anything now!! Another clue….

What next? It occurred to me that the PJ were retaliating from Clarrie’s outburst on Sunday and just injected that little snippet (maddie died and was moved) into the news today. Daily express version today is a turnaround.
They are retaliating aren’t they - PJ I mean ? If I sound like I’m not keeping up is because I am definitely not keeping up! Sorry really busy at the mo - just get a sniffer or two.
