From the guardian today.
"The parents of missing Madeleine McCann may consider an around-Europe mission to publicise the campaign to find their daughter, a family spokeswoman has said."
"But if it means going around Europe to meet people, talk to people, then they will do that."
Ahhhh...... thats nice, we can fund their European tour. Perhaps a cruise around the Med, you know in case she's there. Maybe take in the sites of Rome. Its lovely at this time of year!

I imagine that the McCann's will be asked where they will look first and they will inform us that their huge publicly funded team of friends and family believe the best places to start looking are Venice, Paris, Berlin, Rome, Athens... By the time we get to Winter it will probably be in the Alps, Pyrenees and Switzland and maybe Austria. But with no joy there, maybe they will have to try further afield in the Spring like North America, Austrailia, hey maybe even Asia! As soon as the 'Support' fund runs out, they will probably just decide that Madeleine would want them to continue with their lives and we will be asked to contribute to the company once more for the Madeleine McCann Memorial trust to help other missing kids (after the families costs of administrating the fund have been deducted of course).
Why has no one checked to see if they are claiming from the travel insurance for this as well? As many have a kidnap policy and which can pay thousands of pounds per day.

Hi Dave,
Having looked at the reverent coverage given in 4 Sunday papers today I would have liked to have thrown up. Team McCann have now become the story, not Madeleine. They even have a Press Officer for god's sake. I cannot believe I am seeing all this guff. Let's hope the backlash comes soon because I am really beginning to loathe these people.
By the way, I'm assuming she might turn up in the Seychelles, Mauritius, Acupulco, etc and these places will be next stop for team McCann.

Dave, I felt sorry for these people in the beginning and I must admit I thought some of your questions were cruel. As the days have gone by I have become more disturbed by the McCanns behaviour and now agree with everything you say. I have just finished reading the news of the world and I am so angry I just hope that little Madeleine hasn`t had a glimpse at her parents in the paper. I asked my daughter how she would feel if she had been taken away from us and saw pictures of me and her dad like this in the paper and she said she would have thought that we didn`t care and we were glad to be rid of her. I`m sorry if I am rambling but this has really upset me.

I can understand your thinking??? But in all fairness If my daughter was taken I would travel to the ends of the earth to get her back and as far as I know its celebrity donations that are funding this.
And the hotel it self catered for child minding thier was supposed to be someone checking in on them so I dont think the parents are to blame yes they were too trusting but they are suffering for it now.
I just hope that child has a happy ending but unfortunatly given the time shes been missing its sadly very unlikely.

At the rate the prize money is increasing, some people will be going on early retirement very soon. Shouldn't the parents just look after their twins instead of going on tour to find Maddy and let the authorities do the work for them ? This sounds like an excuse to go on tour.

I suppose they expect people to donate to that too? Has it not occurred to anyone that if this little girl was taken to sell to a childless couple or whatever, they could have made 3 times the money by taking the other 2 children? Isn't it obvious this poor little mite was taken by someone with evil intent?

Exactly! Gerry is even going home to check on the fund
Mr McCann is making the visit to deal with "personal matters" as well as to meet organisers of the Find Madeleine fund.
Mrs McCann will remain at the family's temporary holiday apartment in Praia da Luz where they continue to wait for news of the four-year-old who was snatched from her bed 17 days ago.
Mr McCann is expected to be back by his wife's side on Tuesday morning.
A spokeswoman for the family in Portugal said: "He will be talking to the people who are organising the fund."
Weird, weird, weird.
Are they in financial difficulties by any chance. Anyway the diaries are bound to be published. Where does Kate find the time to jog, shower, blow dry her hair, sort out her jewellery, see to her twins, write a diary, go to church, address the media, wow she is getting busier than posh and Becks.
If you look back at all the parents who lost children, none of them behaved like her. Also the mum of Kate, why does she not go to be with her daughter. I am suspicious of the whole family. Time to stop admiring the caring family I think.

What if the reality is that Maddie is kept as someone else child? How many times in Germany and AUstria have people children been found many years later being kept in somebodys house with neighbours presuming their caretaker are the real parents.
The McCAnns can do what they like as long as it is off the tv.
People can donate what they like as long as the TV and radio move on to tother things I dont care.

i must admit when I heard this on the news today at lunch time I had to take a sharp intake of breath.
Clutching at straw come to mind
The fund will pay come second thoughts.
i would do anything to get my child back anything but this smacks of not really sure but hell I would not be able to budge one inch from where I was untill I found her one way or another.
