DATE GERRY USED
Day 35 - 06th June 2007
The press conference, meetings and appeal on TV today in Amsterdam all seemed to go well. I doubt there are many people left in Europe who do not know of Madeleine’s disappearance and hopefully everyone who has information will have come forward to the police. Today was particularly difficult for Kate and I because of the year we spent in Amsterdam with Madeleine. We have many friend s still there and could never have imagined coming back without her in such dreadful circumstances. Afterwards we caught with a friend of mine who was attending a medical conference in Amsterdam and a friend who helps run a playgroup that we attended We arrived back in Portugal and managed to spend some time with Sean and Amelie. We then drove to the concert in Lagos in aid of Madeleine, which is the first large public event in Portugal that I know of supporting the campaign. It was interesting mix of jazz, blues, orchestra and rap! We were presented with a painting with green and yellow hands from a class of schoolkids- hands of hope. There was a short speech and Kate thanked tke local community for their support. The amount of media coverage Madeleine’s disappearance has received is phenomenal. After Morocco we will have to take stock and decide on our best strategy. I am not convinced going to other European countries and holding meetings similar to Berlin and Amsterdam will help.


on 7th the records recommence on the antenna "Faro Airport" at 17:12:59.

The absence of record was due, according to the media, to the presence of McCann in Berlin during that interval in the records.

Returning to Faro, in addition to [the above] entry, there are three more records on that antenna at 17:13:51, 17:13:59 and 17:15:01. Then follows: "Montenegro" at 17:17:56; "S.ta Barbara de Nexe" at 17:25:59, 17:26:15 and 17:26:20; "Quartos" at 17:29:25 and 17:29:46; "Pedra de Agua" at 17:31:59 and 17:37:10; "No Boliqueime" at 17:41:36; "Alcantarilha" at 17:51:09; "Ladeira do Vau" at 17:57:04; "Monte Alto IC4" at 18:04:40; "Bensafrim Centre" at 18:07:09; "Lagos" at 18:08:23 and 18:13:38; then entering the sphere of influence of the antennae of Praia da Luz at 18:25:11.

Still on this day [7th], it activates the antenna "Lagos Centre" at 20:13:22, 20:38:07, 20:39:13, 20:39:33, 20:51:04, 21:14:38, 21:27:24, only returning to his temporary residence at 00:05:50am on 8th.

Quieter day today. This was a good chance to catch up with campaign e-mails and phone calls after the trips to Berlin and Amsterdam. At lunchtime we went to the release of 1000 yellow balloons at the beach carrying cards with Madeleine’s picture on it and information in 5 different languages including arabic. There were similar launches in Manchester and Madrid. The event was organsied by the Sun who, like almost all of the media, have been incredibly supportive. I told Nick, the Sun journalist, that we are happy to support all strategies which increase the chances of finding Madeleine. Later in the afternoon we went down to the beach and had dinner in one of the restaurants which Sean and Amelie really enjoyed. Sean, in particular has acquired a taste for sea-bass! Kate and I did a short interview for BBC East Midlands to thank everyone for their support and it is likely that this will be shown around most of the regions, certainly Northwest and BBC Scotland. Kate and most of the family headed down to the church for the regular Friday night vigil but I was just too shattered. Tommorrow will largely be a family day although I am not sure what we will be doing yet.
