Madeleine McCann: Beyond A Joke
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
LARGS & MILLPORT Weekly News (Scotland): Charity worker in Maddie sick joke row
A charity boss from West Kilbride has been suspended over a sick joke about Madeleine McCann.
Senior manager Lynn McBain was suspended earlier this month after referring in a staff newsletter to the 4-year-old girl who went missing from Praia da Luz in Portugal over a year ago.
Some readers were left shocked after she joked that “McCann oven chips” had disappeared from her oven after she left them there for 20 minutes.
When is it safe to make a joke from a tragedy?

I got error 404 in the middle of an otherwise normal anorak page, and was dispatched unwillingly to youtube. The relocate thingie is working overtime for me also.
On the positive side, I have never had any bouncy things of whatever hue…
