Maddie's personality was often referred to by MW staff as 'shy'. Could they have (in retrospect) and in good faith, THOUGHT that a child they remembered (that looked similar to the younger photo used) have been Madeleine.

How often did she refer to the signing in sheet?

Chidren arrived and left sporadically, sometimes during outside activities.

There was not a requirement for a 'roll call' to ensure everyone was there.

Apparently, according to the BBC Whistleblower program <!-- m -->http://www.bbc.co.uk/pressoffice/pressr ... ower.shtml<!-- m -->
a child was present in the creche in another MW resort, that wasn't supposed to be there. Not necessarily something relating to this case but indicative of how there may not be a lot of security protocol attached to it.



I choose not to believe that Catriona was in collusion with the McCanns but I look at the possibility that, if she had a bad day on Thursday (both Catriona and her roommate went to bed early on Thursday night as they were tired), then it is possible that had the McCanns signed Madeleine into the creche and TOLD her Madeleine was there (she met with them on Saturday lunchtime just prior to her statement the following day) she may have second guessed herself or felt concerned about her job or MW reputation if MW had already approached her concerned regarding the Whistleblower program.

Possibly Alex Woolfall spoke to her?

Original statement was on Sunday not Friday.


This would have been prior to the knowledge that the creche records would have been important in an 'abduction' hours later.

Emma Wilding accompanied Madeleine's group to the beach on WEDNESDAY but was not sure if Madeleine was there.

Was Emma mistaken about the trip to the beach on Wednesday?

Did they go on Thursday as the creche activity sheet suggested because of rain on Wednesday?

Why did she not remember seeing Madeleine?

Too many children or was Madeleine missing from the group?

What was Kate wearing Thursday night?

She was in athletic clothing when she returned to the apartment after high tea. Presumably she would not have changed her clothes until after a shower, which according to Kate and DP was just before he arrived at around 6.35pm but if they were lying could have been at any time.

Something happened to Madeleine and Kate changed into the checkered pants and wore them long enough for cadaver scent to have been found on them and then Kate went to the tapas with no signs of grief or swollen eyes from crying?

If something hapened after she left then was she wearing the checkered pants that night and when did the cadaver scent appear on her trousers as she didn't leave the table all night.

I cannot comprehend that such a major event could happen within the space of a few hours with no signs of grief and having the support of the T7 with no time to discuss anything with them.

That, in my opinion, is an almost impossible scenario to put together in such a short time.

Maybe, if there was not the death of Madeleine to deal with then theoretically it could be possible, but the grief of losing her would not have allowed Kate to function in the time spent at the tapas.

Only if Madeleine had died earlier and she had taken time to grieve (appearing to be the distancing of the McCann family from the others on holiday) would they all have been able to create the abduction.

Maybe not perfectly because others were involved and may not have played their part exactly as required!
