Madeleine McCann: Watching The Children
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
THE SUN: “So sad on Maddie’s birthday”
THE parents of missing Maddie McCann held a “low-key” party yesterday on her fifth birthday. Kate and Gerry McCann decided it must go ahead for the sake of their three-year-old twins Amelie and Sean.
And then tell the world about it.
Says McCanns’ spokesman Clarence Mitchell: “Obviously, without Madeleine home yet, this is sadly just another day without her in many respects. Of course they marked her fifth birthday, as much for Sean and Amelie’s benefit as anything else, but they did it privately within the family.”
How long before we are watching Sean and Amelie?
DAILY STAR: “MADDIE BIRTHDAY.. NO CAKE, NO CARDS”
DAILY MIRROR: “Twins’ do on Maddy birthday”
A media blitz by the McCanns, and an appeal to contact their private detectives at Metodo 3.
Says Clarence Mitchell: “The emails have run into yho0usands and there have been hundreds of calls”

Ciara most definitely said that it was her that was at uni with GM. She said ‘I was at uni at the same time as GM’ and not that it was her brother. She said GM was a year or so ahead of HER (not her brother) She only said it was her brother when she later said she was 33/34 and could not have been at uni at the right time.
Several people remember this. This doesn’t make people fixated etc. I thought that, since posters here are adamant that they are looking for the truth from the Mc’s, we should be looking for the truth from posters, too.

Well thank you for sharing that !! For my part it has gone from 0 to 60 and back again temperature-wise here in the good old UK so we don’t know whether to wear thongs or Long Johns, but the bird table is alive with all mannner of bird-life trying it’s best to stave off the pestering screams of the babies who look to me to be old enough to feed themselves as it happens……!!

Good morning everybody
Every morning about a dozen or more lovely coloured parrots land in a tree in my garden for a preen, on their way to the lakes woodland. Provides entertainment for my persian moggy.
Thought i’d share that with you.
I went to Brazil once upon a time for mardi gras.
Didn’t enjoy, too many crazy people - but thought i’d share that with you as well.
They do good coffee though

All this talk of who went to Uni with whom !! I should think most of us can claim to have had someone “famous” in our life circle at one time or another. I - for my part - went to school with Judy Dench, Judy Cornwell and another girl, Elizabeth Proud, who appeared briefly in “Emergency Ward 10″ . My son went out with Polly, the daughter of Michael Gough- actor extraordinare - befire she died tragically with a friend qhen their Mini ended up upside down in a pond with the roof crushed in. Martin Shaw lives just down the road and I see him often in “Homebase” - these people can be quite human after all !! Liza Goddard lives nearby as does wossisname who plays “Trigger” in “OnlyFools and Horses”, in fact - come to think of it - Norfolk is infested with celebs !! ….I think, however, I would keep very quiet about any association, however tenuous, with either K or G McCann !!!

It’s Ciara- Lou actually , where did you get Mary- Lou from?
May 14th, 2008 at 1:09 am
I never stated that at any time and apologise if I came across as being proud to have met or known him. It was in conversation and never realised it would be such an issue.

‘It is no claim to fame knowing of G McC!!’

My son, is 18 soon and I am 34 . I will repeat what I stated earlier tonight that my older brother knew GMcC and I met him and knew of him. What is the fascination. It is no claim to fame knowing of G McC!!

I cheated too, because I’m not off yet, I couldn’t resist to read the last posts.
You’re right I too remember about Ciara being a couple of years behind Gerry at Uni.
Haven’t read about her son/age, because I haven’t read the threads of the last couple of days.
Do you know the Bullshit generator?

That’s much better than mine. I am cheating! I am using Peter’s Haiku Generator (google it). You made that one up yourself

I think I may be able to throw some light on this
Some time ago you said that you were at Uni with Gerry McCann, a couple of years behind him
Yesterday, you said that you had a 17 year old son, who you had had at 16 years of age. That would make you 33 years of age now
GM is 40 this year.
Did your dog really exist ?

Yes??
What is your point??
I always look at your posts and think of my dog. I had a collie dog who died recently and was white with one black eye. I called him Patch.
