Find Madeleine McCann On Facebook
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
SAY the McCanns: “We strongly support and encourage this new initiative to use Facebook to increase awareness of missing children.”
Wherever you are, whatever you are doing, you will know that children go missing.
Although not if you’re watching the TV news of reading the newspapers because Madeleine McCann is no longer in the mass media.
But the campaign has not been in vain. She is on a press release.
And the better news is that no children have gone missing in the past few weeks. We look through the mainstream press every day. It’s a fact. But what of life on the internet?
The statement goes on: “Using the power of social media in this way will undoubtedly capture the attention - and hopefully the help - of a younger population who are a hugely valuable and resourceful group.
“We would urge the millions of Facebook users around the world to keep looking and to do what they can to help bring these children home.”
Missing People has set up a widget for Facebook users to download, which will mean information on current appeals will be displayed on their homepage.
Says missing People Chief Executive Paul Tuohy: “If every Facebook user downloaded our BT-powered application, millions of people internationally could see an appeal that could help us to reunite a family.”
Because BT cares…

Diário de Notícias of today is saying Robert Murat has not been asked for the reconstruction.
His lawyer says: “The PJ know very well Murat was not there that evening”.
Speaking about the opinion of Tapas 7, useful or not to go, Mr. Pagatere said that the Public Ministery don’t do unuseful things.
How dare O’Brian, Rachel Oldfield and Fiona Payne say Murat was there?
Is this perjury?
M and A
Not in the UK until they swear in Court, but it would be seen as wasting police time, and also entitle Murat to sue?

Sam,
Interpol are still investigating the Brazilian sighting.
The detectives are disguised in anacondas.
Please, don’t tell it around.

Tapas 7,
would not be better to go to Algarve and to clean up your names?
If you don’t go, a cloud of doubts will always be above your heads.
Why sacrifice yourselves for the rest of your lives, getting a bad name, only to protect people who don’t diserve?
IMO

I was playing the sergeant at snooker,
When I spied on his foot a verruca;
So I reached in my pocket,
Withdrew a small rocket,
And blasted it with a bazooka.
Boom boom

This hyena (that’s assuming I am included in ‘the’ pack? Who knows?) is off now too.
Goodnight all, including all the john boys & mary lou’s!

Glad you had a good time with your family.
Jim jams that’s pyama’s?
From what I’ve seen I’m also glad I wasn’t around.
Since a while I’m pretty fed up with discussing the case btw. Nothing new to be said anymore. No new ‘facts’. Still the same or even made worse [by posters] rumours. All same old, same old. Though I’m afraid the pj can’t solve the case, still hoping they will.
*******
Have to get some sleep now.
Bye all, sleep well.
Dare I, or daren’t I call the genius? Yampster?
May 27th, 2008 at 1:17 am
Bye everyone - another few days to the end of my hols and I will be back in the land of the “non-living” Then I will have to start looking forward to the next one. Oh the life of the retired. Drifting from one holiday to another and resting inbetween!!

‘You said this poster mentioned that he had sensitive information on me and back it up with this. ???’
well you have to admit, it’s quite intriguing, if nothing else.
May 27th, 2008 at 1:12 am
Goodnight all…Totje, Sam, Patch, Fair, Chenier and apologies to anyone I’ve missed out… sleep well x
May 27th, 2008 at 1:11 am

You did suggest the other day that Pikey reveals things that he could only have got from an email which suggests you know him/her well enough to be in email contact.
As for ’sensitive’, it depends what the ‘certain things that could be exposed’ actually are.

‘Embarrasing to admit it, butI didn’t know it was a delphic prohecy; clearly my overlaided brain needs rest.’
well i didn’t know either until today, just took some idle time to look it up. i did wonder why that term was used, it sounds like a challenge and i like to know why someone challenges so.
goodnight, sleep tight

No not away. We went to daughter & son in laws late pm (6ish) for dinner. They live near by & we walked home at 3am! Normally, for some stupid reason, when I have a late night I seem to always wake up too early, but today I woke up at…..2.15pm!! I must have needed it? Been in jim jams all day! What with phone calls & dinner etc it has taken me ’till now to catch up!! I am soooo glad I was not ”here” last night!

‘Has anyone notice the “thickening” around the middle of Kate? Look at the BBC site with photo of “flowers being carried” Looks like there may be the patter of McCannfeet - but maybe I am completely wrong and it just the unflattering angle of the camera’
maybe she’s just getting a bit fat, goodness knows, she could do with it.

‘Sam the theory is rather complex, but its core is simple. The reality of a situation is just that, no amount of wishing that the reality was some how different will alter that.
Posters are inventing and embellishing things to suit their view of things, a form of self delusion, what I do know is that Madeleine is missing, that is the reality, everything else at this time is pure conjecture, very little of it honest or reasonable.’
dear rasputin, conjecture and embellishment yes, but that does not make the person or their views dishonest, nor unreasonable.
