MRS MATTHEWS: I’ve been everywhere I can think of friends-wise and family and everything.

MRS MATTHEWS: Yes.

It looks like it has gone forever …………………. BUT! I bet it will be back. Everybody’s talking about it now - whereas before - it was just those of us that thought the Tapastwats looked a bit dodgy and fay!
I had to divert a youngish lorry-driver the other day because the road was too narrow. He said he was going to Coventry andLeicester - and was making jokes up about being sent there - and then without my even saying a single word - he said he liked Coventry but not Leicester - and launched into a load of verbal about the Clan.
He said that whenever he went in the transport cafes - all his friends ever talked about was the Clan and whether they had anything to do with it.
I said that I hadn’t really kept up the story!

Unlucky!

No you have not rung her friends and been in touch with all her relatives ……..
At least she was honest about that bit then!

I thought “Hiya, I want to report my daughter as missing, please.” was an odd why to start the call.
You’d expect something rather more urgent sounding and desperate. that sentence sounded rehearsed.

i thought it interesting that she didn’t answer the question ‘when did you last see her’ directly.
