Were the rumours that they used the £ raised to pay off their mortgage true?

Don't you hold back now

I think breakthrough was a tad OTT from me!!

I am in an exceptionally good mood and long may it continue

They have made a breakthrough - watch crime watch later on

I would drink Kate Macanns bad week

In kates book she said she did the same thing the night before the abduction and she got back and madeline was awake and asked where she had been or something along those lines!?

In some peoples eyes its not unfair - had they been in the apartment where they should have been this wouldn't have happened

this is the one made by the portugese police man who was in charge of the investigation

I was only having a laugh lighten up

You're probably just an irresponsible parent which comes as no surprise given the team you support

Yes of course it would have been better - whats your game here?

Are you saying this case doesn't deserve a slot on crimewatch?

The likely thing was that someone was watching every move in the place and picked their exact moment - criminals want an easy job as does everyone else. They wouldn't have gone for it if they were there , no way

You are in your own home also - you and your kids are familiar with the building and the surroundings which wasn't the case with the Macanns.

Pretty sure it was about 200 yards? The exact distance hardly matters - the important thing was they weren't in the apartment with the kids and thats how someone got in and pinched her. They were having drinks - thats the reason they weren't in their apartment with their children

Hardly the same thing - would you and your wife both go out to a pub a couple hundred yards away and get pished with your 3 month old asleep alone? In a foreign country no less?

I don't like putting the boot in completely because gun to head i think most parents have left their kids alone at one point when they probably shouldn't have There are some funny things about the case - they asked to see a priest who was apparently deeply disturbed about what they had told him, plus the police mans reports on their suspicious activities on the night is enough for some people to accuse them of murder. I can't believe for one second that a couple could be capable of killing and disposing of one of their children then going out for drinks like nothing happened - its just not possible unless they are a pair of sadists which i don't think they are.

It would be awesome if they went on crime watch and duped the macanns on to the show then said "We have the pictures of those responsible for the disappearance" then the macanns picture came up on the screen and police came in and cuffed them up then the detective tore them apart via powerpoint presentation in a scooby too/ jonathan creek fashion and they were ushered off to jail never to be seen again

I have sympathy with the Macanns to some extent but they don't take as much responsibility for the f**k up as they should - essentially they abandoned them to get pished with friends yet they seem to act the victim more than taking responsibility. I saw a documentary on youtube done by the portugese cop who thought they had disposed of her body - was a pretty haunting watch but i will give the Macanns the benefit of the doubt on that one

Im getting a bit of money in soon and was first of all wanting to go to a man utd game - then the mrs suggested a trip to london instead - then my dad suggested that Amsterdam or perhaps a place in Germany would be relatively cheap so i think it could be a toss up between Munich and Amsterdam for a long weekend

I went to glasgow when i was 19 going on 20 to do the same HND I'm doing now and just got pissed for 2 months only showing up about 2 days for college and spunking my saved cash and student loan then had to pack it in and go home - there was no way i woulda screwed the head on back then so i don't really regret it but i wonder where i would have been if i had stuck it out. I can prob afford to do uni with no student loan as the mrs works full time so just live off her

Good on you mate - i hopefully won't have to be at uni when I'm 42 but you never know!!!
