They won't be thinking that you fell on your bum...
They'll be thinking something else!

Oh bloody hell! I did the exact same thing when I was texting my pal after the game. What a moron!
You been feeling on your bottom today?

I feel on my bottom playing football. It hurts

Being called into work when you are on holiday to cover a shift for someone who has phoned in sick. Even worse when you consider that you worked a shift for the same person on Monday - again, during your holiday - so they could go to a university interview!

I used to have low self confidence and took people's comments to me really hard and personally but you get to a stage where you don't care what people say about you anymore. Think it is something that comes with age or something, I don't know.
Hope you feel better soon
I think you are right, it's definitely something that comes with age.
I used to get bullied at school and for a long time it really affected me. It stopped around fourth year but I hadn't forgotten about it and thinking back made me feel bad. Now, looking back, even when I imagine the worst comments and the worst situations I found myself in, I can't evoke any sort of feeling from the memory whatsoever.
You get to a stage where you realise that everyone is different, no-one is perfect and everyone has their faults. You also come to appreciate that there are people in life that are in much worse situations than yourself, no matter how bad you may feel it got or gets at times. In turn I think you come to appreciate yourself and what you have that little bit more.

Why don't you transfer then, instead of moaning about it?

Releasing an e-fit now is totally ridiculous.
I see Gerry and Kate have managed to get headline news again since the past 4-5 weeks have been a bit quiet, with their Spanish interview. Media darlings.....??
Or looking at it in a rather less cynical manner, perhaps due to the fact that the exposure of her disappearance had dramatically decreased in the press, they felt it was appropriate to conduct the interview to keep her at the front of our minds?

whereas believing the beliefs of a family makes so much more sense.
I do apologise. I was under the impression it was innocent until proven guilty.
Clearly, on the basis of this thread, I'm mistaken.

Why would none of that surprise me!
Because you know them so well?
Or because you believe everything you read in the papers?

Gerry McCann is a heart specialist, so I'd imagine he's being paid considerably more than his GP wife?

Mebbe they decided not to in order to avoid jumping the gun.
I wouldn't say "Its a 100% match" in a case as sensitive as this if I didn't know that as fact.

My dad was 42 when I was born, and I was never dumped in a creche all day, then put to bed a stupidly early time.
Seeing as my parent actually did a good job, they'd spend the day doing activities with my sister and I. We'd then go down for dinner before going back to the room where I;d bound about for hours before evnetually falling aslpee.
There was a comment much ealier in this thread saying that they went across the road for dinner and left their kids, was this bad parenting?
My initial reacton was 'I'd never leave my kids in that situation', but not being a parent I was perhaps not the best to decided. I asked my mum if she would have ever done that, he reply was 'of course not, that's shocking parenting'
My mum was 28 and my dad 30 when they had me, and I was always put to bed really quite early. 7:30pm was about the usual time for bed when I was younger. When I left primary school at age 12, I was allowed up until 9 and it wasn't until I was about 15/16 that I really took control of my own bed time. Lights out was always at 10 at the maximum until then. On holiday I suspect I would have been allowed up later, but I sincerely doubt it was much later. My parents were generally very strict about bed time.
My dad also agreed that he would never have left us on our own at that age so that they could go out and enjoy dinner however he didn't judge the McCanns for doing so. He said the whole reason we were always put to bed at 7:30pm was so that he and mum could enjoy some "them" time.

Do you?
Someone should tell that Nat Fraser then.
And as for the blood, nobody's said they've found blood have they? They've said they found something which might be her DNA or very similar. Not an astonishing find in a car used by her parents. I'm no scientist but I know DNA is inherited.
Is DNA between siblings not also similar?
The only place I've heard it reported as being blood is on this thread. All of the newspaper reports reported "possible bodily fluids" of Madelines.

I assume the car with blood in it isn't a major step forward then
Blood trace could've come from anything that belonged to Madelaine that was in the car, I'd imagine?
I wonder if they found it in the boot!

The ONLY conclusion that can be reasonably reached from this farce of an investigation is that more than 100 days later we can draw the absolute conclusion that the Portuguese police couldn't find their own arse without help. If it wasn't so serious it would be comical. The Keystone Cops couldn't come up with a less competent investigation.
I said yesterday that if in the hour after the crime they'd sent me and two lads from the office out there to investigate it we'd be no worse off in investigation terms than we are now.
I don't believe for a second that either parent was directly involved in the disappearance of Maddie but even in the unlikely event that they were these clowns wouldn't have a clue.
Good post.
To me, the fact that the McCanns are now being interviewed again and treated as suspects suggests that the police in Portugal have no idea what happened to Madelaine and are no further forward now than they were when the case first opened.

Perhaps it's best not to try and make a fool of someone elses' contribution then when it is you who wasn't up to speed with the facts.
Of course you are right, Fudge.
I apologise Ochil Clyde. They must've dumped her body afterall.

Nah, it's cos they're c**ts, plain and simple
Basically.

If traces of her blood were found on a hire car they hired for the first time 25 days after she disappeared then it would seem obvious that they had Madeline's body after May 3rd, this making them guilty of shifting the body at the very least.
Am I being wooshed or are you actually being that stupid?
I haven't kept up to date with the press coverage on Madelaines disappearance due to how extensive it has been. I didn't realise the car was hired 25 days after she disappeared.

As for people getting enjoyment out of it, it's something this country has been doing for many years. Building someone up then tearing them apart is a British institution
Yeah, I don't find it particularly funny, myself.
This thread and the one about Diana only reinforce the reasons why I rarely frequent this section of the board anymore.

If this is true, there can only be one verdict.
What? She cut herself and that's how traces of blood got into the hire car?

It wouldn't be a harsh thing to suggest if people were genuinely suggesting that it would have been best for their other children.
I believe, for the McCanns, coming home to the UK and resuming the lives that Madelaine once filled is going a long way to accepting the reality that they might never find their daughter. And I don't think anyone on here has any right to suggest that's what they should do.
I can't even begin to imagine how difficult it must be for a parent to not know what has happened to their child, and to then accept the possibility that they'll never know and will never see them again.

Why is it stupid?
How can anyone know that they did it? People suggesting that they knew from the start that the parents killed Madelaine is stupid for two reasons. Nobody actually knew to begin with, and nobody knows now.
People can think that they did it, if they feel so inclined. However, to come on and pain the rest of us who want to keep a little faith in humanity with their insistance that they did do it, is infuriating. Then there's the seeming enjoyment people are now deriving from the fact that they are being made suspects and that faith I wanted to keep in humanity is slowly draining out of me.

its obvious someone knows,whether it be the parents or a abductor
I was referring to the people on this thread who claim to have known the McCanns did it from the very start. The suggestion is nothing short of stupid.
0 -
I haven't objected to the suggestion that they did kill their own daughter. What I objected to was the insistance that it was them.
Nothing has been proved one way or the other, some folk have the McCanns banged up.
Sums up my feelings on this thread.
The fact that some people on this board seem to be enjoying the McCanns being made suspects and the thought that they could be found to be guilty of their daughters murder is just beyond my understanding. It might have been them, but seriously, nobody knows what really happened to Madelaine.
I also fail to understand the criticism of their prolonged stay in the Algarve. I can understand the criticism of their continual presence in the media, but their choice to remain in Portugal? Why should they return home and "get on with their lives?". Harsh thing to suggest they should do. I wonder how many people on here with children would just return home and get on with their lives, without their child.

She sounds nuts!
Was she really doing 20mph? I hate folk like that.
