- MAY 3 2007 Madeleine disappeared from the family apartment in Praia da Luz. Kate McCann raised the alarm at 10pm.
MAY 4 Sniffer dogs were brought in, the Spanish and border police and airports notified and volunteer teams combed the village, resort and beach for clues. The McCanns spoke publicly for the first time, directly appealing to their daughter's abductors and speaking of their "anguish and despair".
MAY 5 Detectives said they believed Madeleine was abducted and said they had a sketch of a potential suspect.
MAY 10 Police admitted the ground search for Madeleine was being wound down. Around 350 potential leads - including sketches of potential suspects - had been followed up and produced no breakthrough.
MAY 12 Madeleine's fourth birthday. Mr and Mrs McCann attended a special birthday mass in the village where they said they were convinced Madeleine was alive. Celebrities including JK Rowling and Sir Phillip Green donated towards a £2.5 million reward being offered for Madeleine's safe return. Gordon Brown, then Chancellor, expressed his sympathy for the parents and later talks to them offering to do "anything he can to help".
MAY 14 In the first major development, police launched a search at the home of Anglo-Portuguese man Robert Murat, just 100 yards from where Madeleine disappeared. Mr Murat was taken in for questioning and made an "arguido" or formal suspect, the next day. He said he was being made a "scapegoat" in the investigation.
MAY 16 Detectives swooped on home of Russian computer expert Sergey Malinka, who designed a website for Mr Murat, and interviewed him as a witness.
MAY 17 An official website and fund was launched. The website had more than 125 million hits within a week and the fund has now raised £1 million.
MAY 25 In their first interview, the McCanns told of how the "guilt" of not being with Madeleine when she was abducted would never leave them. Police finally released the description a man seen carrying a child on the night of Madeleine's abduction near their apartment at the time she disappeared. It had been known since the night itself but was only issued after pressure from the McCanns, their legal team and the British Government.
MAY 30 Mr and Mrs McCann launched the start of a campaign to raise awareness of Madeleine's plight by attending an audience with the Pope at the Vatican. They went on to give press conferences and meet officials in Germany, Morocco, the Netherlands, Spain and the United States.
MAY 31 In a sign of increasing desperation, police said they were trawling through two dossiers of emails and messages from clairvoyants who said they knew where Madeleine was. They said they were trying to find out if any of the messages could be from her kidnapper.
JUNE 6 On a trip to Berlin, the parents were shocked when asked for the first time in public if they had anything to do with their daughter's disappearance. They denied any involvement.
JUNE 13 An anonymous tip-off suggested that Madeleine's body was buried in deserted scrubland nine miles from where she was went missing. Police found nothing and the parents were "very upset" at the claims she was dead.
JUNE 17 Portuguese police forensic results revealed nothing of significance. Detectives said Madeleine's friends and family may have unwittingly destroyed vital evidence in the first few hours after her abduction, during their search for her. Spokesman Olegario Sousa says their well-meaning actions could prove "fatal" for the investigation.
JUNE 21 The first of a series of reported sightings of a girl resembling Madeleine are reported in Malta. Other alleged sightings were reported in Morocco, Spain, France, Switzerland, Belgium, and even as far away as Argentina and Guatemala.- JULY 10 Mr Murat returned to the police station in Portimao for further questioning. He went back the next day for a "confrontation" with three friends of the McCanns - Russell O Brien, Rachael Oldfield and Fiona Payne - who claimed they saw him at the scene helping with searches on the night Madeleine disappeared. Around this time police picked up a new lead and shifted the investigation towards the belief that Madeleine was dead. They focused again on the apartment, which had been rented out again to holidaying couples, and called in specialist British sniffer dogs which could detect tiny traces of blood and human remains.
AUGUST 3 The sniffer dogs started new searches at the apartment, at Mr Murat's house and of surrounding areas. They also searched nine cars, some belonging to Mr Murat, and the hire car of the McCanns. Later it was reported that small traces of blood were amongst dozens of samples being sent to Britain for examination.
AUGUST 8 The Portuguese press started accusing the McCanns and their friends. A family spokesperson said they were disgusted at an apparent smear campaign against them. The couple were frustrated that police had started to take a more formal tone with them, and feared the investigation had gone back to "square one".
AUGUST 11 The 100th day since Madeleine disappeared. The McCanns attended a poignant service of prayers for Madeleine at a church in Praia da Luz. Without telling the parents, Portuguese police acknowledged publicly for the first time that Madeleine could be dead. Mr Sousa said the parents were not being considered as suspects. His comments were echoed later by Portugal's top detective, Alipio Ribeiro.
AUGUST 21 Detectives leading the investigation admitted off the record their main theory was now that Madeleine died by accident. They said the apartment had "all the answers" to the case and that all leads on it being a possible kidnap had been exhausted.
AUGUST 24 In an interview with the Daily Telegraph, Mr McCann attacked a series of police leaks which have fuelled "preposterous" speculation about what happened to his daughter. He said the couple were considering returning home and he was thinking about returning to work. He reacted with amazement and fury to a newspaper report claiming "the parents killed Madeleine" and the couple later launched a libel action.
AUGUST 29 Mr McCann made the first direct appeal to the abductors since the first week, urging them to end the nightmare.
SEPT 1 Portuguese police received "significant" results of forensics tests carried out in Britain. Sources said a key piece of DNA had been found in an "area where it should not have been." Mr McCann was called two days later and told he and his wife would be required for further questioning.- SEPT 6 Mrs McCann was questioned for more than 11 hours by Portuguese police.
SEPT 7 Mrs McCann returned and was given "arguida" status as she was asked 22 key questions by police. Mr McCann arrived at 2pm to be questioned separately. He was officially made "arguido" status about 12 hours after his wife.
SEPT 9 The McCanns fly back to England with their two-year-old twins Sean and Amelie.
SEPT 11 Portuguese police hand the papers in the case to the public prosecutor, Jose Cunha de Magalhaes e Meneses, for him to decide whether to bring charges against anyone. OCT 2 Goncalo Amaral, the detective in charge of the inquiry, is removed from the case after criticising the British police in a Portuguese newspaper interview.
OCT 9 The case is taken over by Paulo Rebelo, a senior detective with Portugal's investigative Policia Judiciaria who is normally based in Lisbon.
OCT 25 The McCanns release a new artist's impression drawn by an FBI-trained expert showing the man described by Jane Tanner.
NOV 1 Gerry McCann returns to work as a consultant cardiologist at Leicester's Glenfield Hospital.
NOV 19 A BBC Panorama documentary screens a video of Gerry McCann speaking of his belief that a "predator" was watching his family in the days before Madeleine's disappearance. In the same programme Mr Murat's mother, Jenny Murat, accuses three of the McCanns' friends of lying about seeing her son on the night of May 3.- NOV 22 Portugal's attorney general, Fernando Jose Pinto Monteiro, says the huge publicity surrounding Madeleine's disappearance could have resulted in her kidnapper killing her.
NOV 29 Forensic experts from the UK and Portugal meet at Leicestershire Police headquarters to discuss DNA samples collected during the inquiry.
DEC 13 Francisco Marco, the director general of Metodo 3, a private detective agency being paid by the McCanns, claims he knows who took Madeleine and that he could have her back with her family before Christmas.
DEC 22 Mr and Mrs McCann send a public message to their daughter, telling her: "Our only Christmas wish is for you to be back with us again."
JAN 9 2008 Mr McCann plays down speculation they may approve a movie about Madeleine's disappearance after their spokesman meets the IMG agency, the firm behind the award-winning drama-documentary Touching The Void.
JAN 20 The McCanns release police artist sketches, based on a statement given by a British holidaymaker, of a man they believe may have abducted Madeleine.
FEB 4 Portugal's top detective, Alipio Ribeiro, says in a radio interview that police were "hasty" in making Madeleine's parents suspects in her disappearance.
FEB 13 Portuguese justice minister Alberto Costa says the police investigation into the young girl's disappearance is nearing its end.
MARCH 19 Mr and Mrs McCann accept £550,000 libel damages and front-page apologies from Express Newspapers over allegations they were responsible for Madeleine's death.
MARCH 26 Kate and Gerry McCann urge Portuguese police to investigate the movements of a suspected Spanish paedophile on the day their daughter vanished. The 52-year-old man was arrested on on suspicion of killing another five-year-old girl.
APRIL 7 Portuguese police arrive in Britain to observe as the friends of Kate and Gerry McCann are interviewed about the night Madeleine went missing.
APRIL 8 Gerry and Kate McCann are asked to return to Portugal to take part in a large-scale re-enactment of the hours surrounding Madeleine's disappearance. They say they will consider the proposal.

«Oldest ‹Older 201 – 266 of 266Hi China and everyone again,
I have just read China's posts and I am seething with rage yes but am I surprised? Emphatically NO! because this is very much along the lines I have been going for months now as some of you will remember with my long questioning emails!
However, I did not know that Goncalo Amaral was also detective involved in the Casa Pia case! WTF is going on in Portugal?
Who is covering up what and for who? And who knows what?
Some of you may remember I have been banging on on about "what better place to hide a child than hidden in a children's home?"
I think the time for remaining quiet is long since gone, I think it is time we showed the IMO filthy PJ and the Portuguese government exactly what we are made of in this country and I hope our Antipodean friends will join us by trying to raise the profile of Madeleine and what 'may' have happened in their countries? Also in Canada and the US?
In fact what say we start a worldwide pressure group to force an independent investigation of the PJ by Interpol?
Too many children going missing. People are entrusting the authorities of these countries with their children.
If the McCann's had read this about Joana going missing and the about the Casa Pia case and all the controversies surrounding them, would they have felt so safe in the quiet town of Praia da Luz? safe enough to leave their children just 89 steps away to eat?
Strange how the same detective is involved the three cases? strange how they are all steeped in controversy. strange how celebrities and politicians have been cleared in the Casa Pia case by this detective, yet he makes the McCann's suspects after 4 months of Madeleine missing?
strange how the Portuguese posters on the DX must have known all of this but kept quiet about it?
Now not so strange that the Portuguese think it totally barking to leave children and go eat just 89 steps away and keep shrilling on about criminal negligence, because they knew something all along that we didn't, more importantly they knew something that the McCann's didn't.
The Portuguese knew it was not safe to leave little children asleep in their beds, to go and eat just 89 steps away.
Shame on the Portuguese for not exposing the very real dangers of holidaying on the Algarve.
Shame that they place more importance on the tourist industry then they do on Johnny Foreigners children!
Shame on Portugal period, you make me sick to the pit of my stomach.
If the PJ think that we will allow the bullying and the intimidation and the false accusations and the character assassination of this couple to continue any longer they are sadly mistaken.
further if the PJ think they will get away with any kind of trumped up charges against the McCann's, they are mistaken.
But really if the PJ think they have been successful in casting a cloud of false suspicion, enough to shove this on the shelf with all their other other disappeared children, they are hugely mistaken.
We will not allow this to happen, some of us have been several steps in front of the PJ since Madeleine first disappeared, some of us have twigged what was going on and now thank the Lord, many others are beginning to wake up to this.
Portugal had better fasten its seat belts it is in for a very bumpy ride!
I have always said something stinks in PDL.
All in my humble opinion of course!
MUM21
Yes, and proud you deserve to be too. No doubts.
You certainly deserve the first post on this new page as it is a very apt post directed at those who need it. Well said indeed.
I wish I had an applause key. Helen maybe will find one on her keyboard as it seems to have 'extras' tonight.
Well said, Rosie.
Now I must say good night to all (goonigh Heln).
I think we are going to have quite a lot to read tomorrow in the press.
Jane...I think Helen's keyboard has more than extras.
I think half her keys are missing,
But I must admit she has been very amusing tonight.
Mum21
with kids the ages they are she must be almost the same too. So...face...bovvered? huh? eh? am I? bovverred like? whatever"!!!!
Hey, Helen...I know what is wrong with your keyboard. It is PORTUGUESE. te he he
Night Tulip
Helen - reading your comments is like listening to the British man on 'Allo 'Allo!!! (The good moaning one)
Helen..PS
It makes lots of mistakes like Claudia.
Yes Mum21,
very amusing and just the uplift we needed as we were getting bogged down with the sad reports on leaks, lies, missed chances eek. Not on. Not at all.
They have, amazingly, no shame - the Plo Jokes I mean. None at all. Arrogant and conceite. I want to know when Amaral and co's trials are. Let's see how arrogant and conceited they are then and what they 'leak' about that....huh. Different then huh?
Not if we have anything to do with it, NO.
Mum21
Very well said.
Hi Rosie
I did a long post,at the bottom of the last page,but am so slow, that you had all gone!Awrrrr.
Your excellent post,covered what I wanted to say and there needs to be an investigation,by Interpol and the European Judicial authorities.
If we are fired up, as we are, there must be lots of journalists and lawyers and their students, working on this case.
Whatever faults we have,in the UK, we are all for fair play and justice and we are joined by our Canadian ,Australian and New zealand and South African friends.
There are many Americans with concern about this investigations and in Daily Mail forum,once you knock out the ratpack and usual lowlife antis, many support the truth,in lots of different countries.
These leaks are damage limitation,big style, to prepare the Portugese people, for an almighty climbdown.
Tulip,
Exactly.
The pj are desperate.
No more talk/leaks of forensics
Even the dogs do not get a mention.
What a dire situation the pj are in, when they have to leak (totally out of context) information obtained during their ( supposed professional )questioning of Kate & Gerry McCann. Information, given, by parents, as witnesses in trying to assist the pj in their attempts to offer an insight into the events leading up to their daughters disappearance.
The McCanns have been shat on from a great height by the pj.
Madeleine has become a pawn.
A pawn being played out for maximum impact by the authorities that should have had her interests as first and foremost.
A macho pj institution, that is attempting to play on the world stage and convince all and sundry that they are reasonable and fair.
Justice for Madeleine will never be silenced.
Jump on my middle finger and swivel pj.
oo d gight t o yoo TULIP
see you soon ha ha
yes, tomorrow's papers should say a lot......
Melbel
I will just scoot back and read your post.
i think it is extremely important we mount pressure here, we cannot allow the PJ to shelve this case.
if they do thenm they MUST be made to hand over the case files to the British police in order for a proper search for Madeleine to commence.
See you back soon.
China
Really glad you are back, have you read my reply to you at 23.00?
I feel we have to act and quickly.
Stupid Vile says I love "tee hee". Have you ever once seen me use it? So much stupidity all squashed into one woman - unbelievable.
Hiya Mellybelly
Night everyone!
Melbel
I am bringing this over to this page because I feel it needs saying and you said it! Well done.
Portugal should know that we do not like injustice in this country, we rail against it, we will NOT tolerate it, not from our judiciary, not from our politicians and certainly not from our police force! And what is more we are not afraid to stand up and say so.
Portugal is not a democratic country it is a bloody dictatorship masquerading as a democracy for a couple of billion euros handout from Brussels!
"Highway Whores" yep very true! the batteries spring to mind "Ever Ready"

Evening all
Just a flying visit, as I am turning up new trousers, for my holidays[makes me crabby,as I am shortsighted]I caught Seawitch, earlier, who I know is busy, but was lovely to see her, before I go after Sunday, for a month.
Thanks for the interesting material presented and was reading, with concern the material put up by China.
There is something rotten in the state of Portugal.Fact.
These latest leaks, purporting to show part of the oh so secret statements, are either a pack of lies, like we have come to expect, about anything emanating from that country, re this case;alternatively, this shows, imo,a PJ spinning desperately to smear this couple,before releasing them,from arguido status.It is damage limitation, but if a true leak, how spiteful,unprofessional and desperate, does it make the PJ look.
Oh, they didn't kill their child, your honour, but we will blacken them and accuse them, of child neglect.
It shows me, how insular this nation is, in spite of their seafaring past.
On a day,where the EEC, with some input from the McCs, among others, were debating an important child protection issue, if true, someone from the discredited Portugese Police Force,decided to play dirty tricks.
Will there be an enquiry into this leak?I doubt it, as there was no action taken about the others.
It is all fur coat and no knickers, isn't it?
It is all spin and presentation, BUT IT HAS BACKFIRED.
Kiss goodbye to your international standing, Portugal,what is left of it.
Kiss goodbye to your tourist industry.
My husband has been working with someone with a holiday place, to letin Praia da Luz.Well, I can tell you, that the bookings are well down. There might be a few cameramen and journalists, around the anniversary, but don't hold your breath.
The tactics of these almost third world bullyboys, are so transparent.WE are a sophisticated audience and we will be merciless.
They must not return to this basket case of a country, unless they see any evidence and unless the arguido status, is removed.
They have great lawyers to fight any extradition request and would need them.
In my view, though, the PJ will slink home, tails between legs and will have to prepare their nation, which appears to have a massive inferiority complex, if we believe Portugese posters and their talk of an unequal battle, between David and Goliath.
POliticial interference at this end? ?You have seen nothing yet,Portugal.
Do you wonder why many of us have been lobbying MPs and Gordon Brown?
Most of the rest of Europe, takes for granted, a working democracy and an effective POlice Force,run with integrity and in accordance with the laws of the land. Not so Portugal.
Your POlice break the secrecy laws, day in and day out[Times journalist source, Claw ].You have no system of accountability.
Portugal, you are a bloody disgrace to Europe."
10 April 2008 22:51
I missed most of the main news, as husband watching golf, on TV,but this leaking, out of context, many months after the statement made,is so transparent, by the PJ.
It really makes them look spiteful and desperate.
I think that, if true, if in violation of their secrecy laws, this must be their final card and a desperate dirty trick.
China
Re post 23 12 WELL SAID, exactly the way I feel!
If the PJ think we are going to accept this monsterous abomination they can bally well think again and that ugly looking smarmy faced git Rebelo better note it too!
I only caught the tail end of the news. I have no idea what has been said, can anyone supply me with a link where I can read it please?
I am still only going on what my gut instinct of this case has been telling me all along, It stinks to high heaven of corruption in my opinion and in my opinion again this dear little girl is being used by Portugal, they may think it is acceptable to use children in this fashion but in other countries we take a very dim view of it.
How many children have officially gone missing in Portugal? How many unofficially? How many have gone missing in Spain near the borders and in the regions of the borders?
My guess is that Madeleine may be being concealed in a children's home not too far from where she went missing? How many are in the area and the region of PDL?
Rosie,
I second that. A very true comment from Melbel.
In all my 65 years I have never come across such a bent police force as the Portuguese.
They are evil through and through.
If they cannot win honestly...they cheat. They disregard any rules of law and blunder on in their own evil way. What is the point in having secrecy laws if they are allowed to break them. Put it this way...should the McCann's even dare to answer back the PJ will accuse them of breaking the secrecy laws.
What a bunch of hypocrites!
MELBEL
since when did the Plod Jokes EVER stick to their own rules? secret or otherwise? never!!!!
ROSIE AND CHINA
I am with you all the way with this load of cr*p. Get some sort of unity in rules and regs within the EU or boot them out. If they want a dictatorship, let them have one. Minus our support for tourism, and all the rest of it.
COUNT ME IN.
SASS
good night and I think I have been the one referred to with the 2 words perhaps in error, thought it was you? don't know......
They do not seem above board, in that country and try to keep the lid on scandals and corruption.The case involving the poor children, in the children's home, has been going on for years.
I had no idea, fattywhatsit,was also involved in the children's home case.
It gets worse and worse,by the day.
As for being their oldest ally,well, that can soon b.....dy change.
Mum
Good post (no 201)
The McCann's in no way should return to Portugal unless the arguido status is lifted. I would in any case question the validity of this reconstruction, if it is being done for the police, forget it, they would hold it and then leak out lies about about it to further blacken the names of these people.
I think the McCann's should instruct their lawyers to take action against the Pj and sooner rather than later and I have another couple of ideas which may be of some use to the McCann's. to enable international pressure to be put on Portugal and their police force. (I use the term "police force" loosely, by the way!)
Personally I think the PJ have just shot themselves in the head, let alone the foot!
I would like to ask the grossly inept PJ, where Madeleine fits in to all of this?
In fact scrub that I would like to ask them where Madeleine actually is! Do they know?
Certainly would explain why they are so blaze' about information of sightings coming in wouldn't it?
I am sorry that I have not even had the courtesy to say 'hello,'or 'goodbye,' or bobs your uncle this evening.
I have been totally consumed with rage, after reading the oh so professional, gentlemen, educated to (degree - or should I say, a certain decree standard) world renowned pj, have finally shown what that their spine is made of?????????????
Answer)
an aspic type jelly.
.........................
The pj, really could not stoop any lower than they did today.
Portugal,,,,,,,,,,,,I hope you're proud.
Bow your head in shame.
It is always a shock,when you look around the world and see that other countries, do not all have a sense of what is fair and just.
I cannot believe that the majority of Portugese could fall for stunts like the PJ play.
The timing of this leak, so beneath the belt,is a pathetic ploy, as they must be on their knees, in the PJ, internationally ridiculed[so richly deserved]and shown by Police experts,from round the world,as utterly incompetent. They can't even leak well.
Exactly Rosiepops,
Very convenient too, indeed.
As for being Portugal's oldest ally, Portugal should know that we have a saying over here;
"Familiarity breeds contempt"
rosie/melbel
tomorrow's sun, star, morror, daily express running front page news on Madeleine McCann and 'leaks' dity tricks dept they are calling it. it should be online now or very very soon. Just heard it this minute on Sky news....
China
Hi. Do not worry. There was so much to take in and when it all comes together,like this, it is truly awful.
I am confident, that our authorities, know, exactly what is afoot here and they dare not stand for it.
Behind the scenes, who knows ?
I have not been on a march, for many a year,but whatever it takes and there will be many supporters.
Melbel,
I must say, you are in my top five of posters.
Always eloquent, to the point and decisive.
I would love to meet you - under different circumstances.
These pj are really travelling downhill, bigtime now.
Are they really so macho, that they cannot find the balls to admit that they have made the biggest cock up in the case of a missing child??????????
Hello,
Wake up and smell................................................your stink
AT LAST!
Our press is picking this up and running with it.
Portugal should realise that this is just the start of it all! Now watch the the Brits with the bit between their teeth!
rosie
no point in any sort of reconstruction of the crime at all. In fact...why....as PJ do not think there was an abduction, it is an open and shut case with dna proof etc so why 'reconstruct' a case you 'know' the answer to?
this is a delaying tactic, diversionary tactic to take away spotlight on their corrupt force and it has been for a long long time. We will find out. At least in this country, we DO launder our dirty washing in public with any accountable public body. The PJ ARE LIKE IT OR LUMP IT ACCOUNTABLE even if the Portuguese are too lily livered to challenge them. And....if so....why? WHY did Jennifer Murat, the gullible mother of Murat, set up a stall for people to report any news of Madeleine for people 'too afraid to go to the PJ' as reported......I never got over that....and still haven't. Cr*p the lot of it.
Jane
Thanks for that. I will go and have a look what slant they put on it.
It is so patently obvious, what they are doing.
In the way of media spin, our country,could eat them for breakfast.
The PJ, are way, way, out of their depth.
Rosie,
I agree with you. I think the PJ really went to far this time.
They will have lost credibility world wide today.
I have just spoken to my American friend and she says the American people are really up in arms over these leaks.
As you said..they have shot themselves in the head this time....and Britain will not take this lightly.
Now I believe our Goverment will intervene...and about time too.
Rosiepops,
Calm down woman,
have you got a link lolololololololololoololloollllllllllllloooooooooooooollll!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1
We will actually force our politicians to take notice.
Political interference in this case?
NOT ENOUGH IN MY OPINION! I think that Gordon Brown is an intrinsically good man, in fact I know he is, lets lobby him directly to act, let's start making a huge din until someone hears us.
PJ WHERE IS MADELEINE?
Rosie..I think the newspapers tomorrow will start the ball rolling. They won't take this trash either.
They are all stating it is PJ leaks.
China
Snap to that.I am actually quite shy, in real life, but like all of us, feel so passionate about the injustice here.
Grandma Healey had it right. They are all being crucified, on a daily basis.
Would love to meet you all sometime and would be proud to call all the regular posters,friends.x
China
lolololololololololololololololololol
Actually I am clinically calm, I know what needs to be done and I will see that it is!
Mum and Rosie
That is great news.A child could see through the stunt they have tried to pull.
Our press could eat theirs for breakfast, if it came to it.
Mum
Like I say, if Portugal thinks our press has been bad so far, they really do nut understand our press! Now excuse me if I laugh like this;
lololololololololololol
I notice even the DE have it front page tomorrow.
PJ..it is now PAY BACK time.
So get your running shoes on.
I believe the PJ are due to return home tomorrow.
They certainly timed it right to leak information like this.
They will make sure they are not around to take the onslaught that is heading their way.
Thank Goodness I do not live in a society where men rule.
They actually think that they know best lol
In Portugal, they do know best.
Can you name a single famous Portuguese woman from any category ie sports, politics, history, celebrity, general knowledge or whatevver?
No.
They are all controlled or under the influence of their male counterparts.
I think it is called 'led by the balls'
or
Machismo
Well I am off to bed ladies...tomorrow is another day.
I wish you all a good night.
Speak to you tomorrow.
I haven't looked in TWS tonight but I can just imagine their false bravado!
But along with that false bravado I bet is accompanied that familiar sinking feeling in the gut, they know they are wrong and what is more the PJ they know they are wrong and now the world is going to know they are wrong.
Goodnight Mum sleep well xxx
yes Mum21, rosie china melbel
After all the DE hgas been through along with the Star, THEY ARE GOING WITH THE DIRTY TRICKS PJ CAMPAIGN tomorrow. After paying out over half a million, they must be bl**dy sure of their acts to do this headline.
good.
at last.
now let's find Madeleine which would totally be the icing on the cake and really shut the other blogs up, stragle the pj with their own secrecy rope. then well, promote anywhere for hols but PdL. then we have won.
yep. let's do that.
at th very least.
I personally want EU high involvement here now. NOW.
BY THE ORDER OF THE OLD BOOT. then ask questions. I feel this is a non retrievable situation for Portugal now. Big time. Who wants to g0 there NOW FOR HOLS WITH KIDS??? noone I know.
Goodnight Mum and goodnight China and
Rosie.
My husband has fallen asleep with a glass of red wine,on his lap, so we had best toddle off.
I feel that this is the end game and the PJ,thought they would go out in a bang and not a whimper.
How little they know.
Speak to you tomorrow and take care. God bless x x x
good night, sleep well, Mum21
see you soon
AH GOOD, NOW TELEGRAPH ARE RUNNING WITH mCcANN STORY NOW ACCORDING TO sKY NEWS.
THAT....SAYS AN AWFUL LOT.
BEGINNING OF END.....FOR PJ AT LEAST. WELL DESERVED.
melbel
GOOD NIGHT TO YOU BOTH. SEE YOU SOON.
Nite and God bless, too, Jane.
I did not manage to bring a front page up,with the De,but the Telegraph,said it was Police leaks.
Thanks for that and take care.
Having once been to Portugal,I am now totally disillusioned and they have finished, now,as far as I am concerned.
Good riddance to bad rubbish and they can put that,in their pipe and smoke it.
If the Portugese people, can see no wrong,they get the Government and the Police, they deserve.
Bye, pals x x x
EXACTLY MELBEL
YOU ARE RIGHT.
goodnight to you and your hubbie.
see you very soon.
good night rosie, chinadoll, and anyone else still here. ;o))
Goodnight All
tomorrow is another day.
I think we have all been in a corner at some stage of our lives.
The pj, seem incapble of admitting that they have made the worst decision in the history of their country - they keep plodding....plodding....plodding on ,,,,,,,hoping, wishing and praying that evidence will fall from the sky.
Yes, it will and it will fall into the lap of the innocent and duly exonerate them.
Diane,
I wanted to say hi at the time of night when you are usually around.
With a mum like you, your little nippers have got nothing to worry about.
Your children will grow up with compassion and understanding. They will not curse thy neighbour, or wish something on someone that they did not wish to be visited on themselves.
As for the little laddie (sorry, I'm hopeless with names) well, I am not worried about him lol, but,
how are grandma and grandpa lol, bet they are having the time of their lives
You obviously have a caring and supportive family Diane, alas, many twisted individuals, that have not had the benefit of your background and therefore, cannot comprehend what the word fairness means, are left well short of the mark.
I do not think that this crying this is correct in the Mail. I think this has been deliberately misquoted. I do not believe it at all, for one reason.
Kate and Gerry are quite emphatic that Madeleine disliked being called "Maddie" they are used to calling their daughter by her proper given name "Madeleine" why would they suddenly change this?
Has anyone ever said something to a child of around that age that they do not like? If so they will pretty soon tell you!
More lies, innuendo and spurious leaks put out by the PJ.
This time they have gone way too far, they must be held accountable and the EU should ensure that the PJ are fully investigated.
Goodnight all, remember today, today is when the worm turned and the PJ showed themselves up for the low life scum they are, in my opinion.
Is there no depths to which these people will not sink to protect who? What?
"The truth will out"
it always does!
Take care and sleep well.
xxx God Bless Madeleine xxx
Don't worry mummy and daddy and "most" good people are looking for you and we have *NOT* given up on you xxx
Diane
I second what China has succinctly said.
Thinking of you lots of love to your little girl and all the family xxx
Goodnight All,
Each and every one of us, sit at the periphery of our knowledge - kind of taking a peek, a sneak look.
Today, I feel like I have had a nightmare beyond my wildest dreams.
Never in the field of Portuguese justice, has Portugal and its inhabitants, been so very very very let down, by those who are paid to protect/defend/represent them.
Shame on you pj
Jane,
I had just about shut up shop for the night and I noticed the same lowlife, as you did.
I think they may be of the homeless variety - wondering around the world wide web, looking for somewhere to berth.
Well, I must log off, as am about to have a personal experience with my keyboard, if not lol
