MADDIE WATCH - Anorak’s at-a-glance guide to press coverage of Madeleine McCann, Kate McCann and Gerry McCann
NEW STRAITS TIMES: “Keep the candle lit”
Spotting our Maddy in Malaysia?
A YEAR after the abduction and murder of Nurin Jazlin Jazimin, we must take pause to observe this sad anniversary in all sympathy for her bereaved family — as indeed for that of Sharlinie Nashar, lost in similar circumstances eight months ago and not yet found.
Other children go missing.
The contrasting fates of the children in these two cases raised the most awful conundrum: would it be kinder for such families to know their child is dead, to retrieve her remains for a proper burial in a consecrated grave where they might mourn and pray for her, or to never know what became of her, the better for hope to remain? Such unthinkable dilemmas are universal; the cases of Briton Madeleine McCann last year, American Jon- Benet Ramsey in 1996, and even the Azaria Chamberlain “dingo” case in Australia 28 years ago, all strike to the same depth of anguish.
Ramsey was fond dead 8 months after she went missing. Chamberlain’s body was never found.
The press sees Madeleine McCann buying party goods in Amsterdam…

TO ALL POSTERS
I am very sorry that my original query to Anorak has apparently caused so much trouble.
Paul Sorene has very kindly sent me the following email this morning………….
“Fair
Sorry for not takiogn care of you, I have had my eye off the ball planning the new site. I hear her pain. I realise that there may have been injustices in the past, but it is difficult to see where it all started amongst the welter of counter accusations, but I promise that the new site will be run differently and that you will be taking control of Mods and Admin.
BEst
Paul”
I just want to say that this answers my complaints & the matter is now settled as far as I’m concerned.

There’s no point telling Garth anything… he’s a fanboy… you’d have more luck telling the nerds that Torchwood is crap.

Does anyone know about payg broadband? I haven’t used it yet other than to send emails when I’m away from home but will I still be able to connect to the websites I use regularly or will I not be recognised because of a wandering server?
Can I for example connect to Anorak on the train or will I be spammed?
M and A
Can only answer to the last as not tried it, but do let us know
What would happen you would go into mods, not spam

I am still waiting for you response to my speculative theories from the other day !

Okay. Lets just look at this one big factor……. If Madeleine McCann had an accident that led to her death it happened between 18.40 and 22.00hrs on May 3rd 2007. Would you agree that would appear to be the most obvious times and indeed what Amaral was looking into?

‘You may not see it that way. I and many others do.’
no, and you may not see it the way i, and many others do, agreed.
‘Maybe you would like to have a go and explain how you think they carried out this crime?’
no, i’m not going to speculate anymore about how it could have been done,it seems a pointless exercise as one is not in full possession of the facts (if any at all other than madeleine is missing) and much of what one thought of as a fact turns out not to be so.

DON’T DO IT! We’ve all got our detailed theories and we all know what each other is thinking for better or worse - except Garse-Hole who wants to see us homeless and bankrupt! So fuck him!

‘You do have to wonder why a further cadaver dog wasn’t brought in, for a “second opinion.” Okay it would have been expensive e.g to bring one out from America, but it would have lent weight to the arguments on one side or the other.’
i do wonder, yes, agreed.

CORRECTION TO MY EARLIER POST:
@
Something bothers me, as Columbo would say, in that Clarry had a perfectly good job with the govt then apparently gave it up and flew out to PDL with Gerry 22 May 07 (ish). Wasn’t this at a time when we were all hoping Maddy would turn up any moment? Why give up a steady secure job (with the govt) for one (with BK) that could come to an end the next day? We are told BK is Clarry’s present employer, does anything else connect them?
@
In fact at that time Clarry was seconded by the govt to assist the McCanns for a short time. Apologies for that - genuine lapse of memory.
It was after the tenure of Justine McGuiness that Clarry became the McCanns spokesman full time. The question still holds good, though, the hope has always been stated that Maddy could turn up alive and well at any moment.
