Madeleine McCann: Child Alert, Daily Mail Knows And Fay Weldon
MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann
DAILY MIRROR: “McCanns win child alert fight MADELEINE”
Kate and Gerry McCann yesterday won their fight for an EU-wide missing child alert system, in tribute to their daughter Madeleine. A declaration supporting the couple’s plea attracted backing from at least 398 MEPs - more than half the 785 European Parliament members.
Or as the Mail said earlier in the week: DAILY MAIL: “Brussels throws out McCann’s appeal for European missing child alert system”
THE INDEPENDENT: “Cultural Life: Fay Weldon, Author”
Film
I went to see Ben Affleck’s Gone Baby Gone for Radio 3’s Saturday Review. “Emotionally disturbing” it claimed to be, with its echoes of the Madeleine McCann case, and so it was, and a welcome change from the dull, written-to-formula films that pour from major studios. If profit rather than enthusiasm is the bottom line, all you get is variations on what made a profit last year.
On it goes…

Hi Brandon,
It’s not selfish. It’s nice to be concerned and phone up for a chat - just don’t tell her you dreamt she was in a fire (in case she thinks it’s a premonition).
I’m off horse-riding (after I’ve mucked out).
at times like this one is glad one does not have horses.

I have pieced together my irrational thoughts ( does anyone else do that)
Shes in Camden ( they had a market fire, one of the last times she was there)

‘Fairly pissed but what the hell ; I’ve been listening to Sympathy for the Devil as well.
I think I had better say goodnight again; sleep well, everyone…’
a great song chenier, good night, sleep well if you’re gone.

OK, Shame on you for interfering with post counts; I was going to bed and got sidetracked onto the Concert for George on Youtube. If you are going to hold a wake then that is the way to do it!
I am now even crosser aboout Clarrie’s disgraceful attempt to traduce the name of the Artist formerly known as George Harrison, in the attempt of finding some pathetic scapegoat for his fantasies.
Fairly pissed but what the hell ; I’ve been listening to Sympathy for the Devil as well.
