Re: Substitute child?
But it's the tennis that puzzles me. The McCanns aren't water people and their only interest is tennis. The courts are limited so they'd need to book as early as possible like Diane Webster did. They're athletic people, surely it'd be on their mind yet they made no booking until 29th and we know from their behaviour afterwards just how important their exercise was. That would surely be on top of my priority list, way ahead of sorting out the rooms or going for an icy swim. So why do both Paynes gloss over the welcome meeting in their rogatories and whats to hide that early into the trip.

My understanding was that the holiday package price included a certain amount of time in the creche but not all day every day. The evening creche (which Kate did not use) was included in the holiday price.

I am likely wrong Pauline but didn't they need to pay extra for the creche during the evening?

One of Kate's many whoppers.

Kate said that the charge wasn't a problem but that she didn't want to leave the children with strangers - yes, the same people who looked after the children in the day!

She could have left the children with a babysitter and still gone to check every half hour if she were that worried. Jean you are right, having parked the kids off each day in various creche facilities and pursued other things (it was our holiday too) to then declare not wanting to leave the children with the same carers is bizarre.
Just another observation, if you were to employ a nanny/babysitter at home wouldn't you check them out? It seems that it's ok to trust a holiday resort nanny during the day with no background checks or personal vetting and then to say the same folk can't be trusted with your children at night. Then again, I doubt any of the T9 went to do random checks during the day to see if the nannies could be trusted with their children, far too busy playing tennis, swimming, sailing, 'into each other', routine bathing and bedtimes and then down to a restaurant to enjoy themselves again.

Re: Substitute child?
IMO the whole week was a fairy tale. Otherwise, where are the photos?
The importance of the creche was manifested as an idea to prove that Maddie was still alive using a substitute child. I do believe that the substiute child and her friend went to the creche for that very reason so those records are probably real with Gerry signing the substitute child and her friend in.
Were the twins really being looked after by the tapas7?
Did any of their children really go to the creche?
They have lied about everything else so why not also lie about the creche records?
IMO some of the tapas7 could have been the babysitters day and night that week with all the children staying in a villa elsewhere in the Ocean Club. I say that because IMO it seems unlikely that any children besides Maddie were ever in 5A (as it was so clean and tidy with no toys) which could have been planned as the place where she was to meet her fate being close to the street.
Was their suspected "pretendy" use of the creche by the McCanns for the twins suggested by the Ocean Club/Woolfall to start on the Sunday? Were many of the signatures forged in hindsight on these other records? What proof do we have from independent witnesses or photos that the twins were in the creche all the time or even stayed in 5A all week.
In other words, I am very sceptical about everything they have said that they did that week as it was all about alibis - not the truth.

You may have read that topic Estelle, just now it occurred to me that the body of the girl who imo has Maddie's face pasted on - is probably that of a 3 yr old girl - just a little larger than Sean who is sitting next to her.
But my thought was - isn't there an Irish connection with the possible sub? And could that in fact be the body of the sub?
