Second reading of the Book

Post  tuom on Sat Jul 28, 2012 9:49 pm

I am now reading the book for the second time so I will not be scanning over things as I usually do. ( Thank you for the online copy fellow member)

Is anyone else reading it at the moment as I would like to exchange views on a few things and as most members on here have debated these to death I do not wish to bore anyone , however I am like a dog with a bone on this one and would appreciate new eyes also on it ... TY

Oh dear, I have every respect for the Wells family but I feel that their comments about the McCanns will reinforce the idea in tabloid readers' minds that both sets of parents are equally blameless in whatever happened to their daughters.

One of the many recorded instances of Gerry barely able to keep a straight face. The smirk is there for all to see, bereft father - no! Someone who is getting away with it - yes!

Pity they didn't field the Everton shirt photographs - people might wonder then why a three year old was a football fan.

The newspapers didn't breathe a word on Madeleine in the first article on the Soham case. Considering that Clarrie was involved in that I'd think it likely it slipped past him and this was a corrective measure to shoehorn the McCanns in. So Kate is ambassador, Gerry will be getting his kudos elsewhere out of the public eye and despite SY's fence-sitting, it's now allowed to surmise death. Coming from the mouth of people not likely to be sued and reported as such in a pro-McCann paper.

Quote from the article:

Despite many leads, Madeleine remains missing. As outsiders to this tragedy, we can only conclude with heavy hearts that there will not be a happy ending. Please do not think about criticising the McCann family.

IMO this has what the Pink One's footprints all over it.
This is a corrective measure - I think it deserves a topic of its own - this is an official article by DM - allowing Madeleine to be dead. Not for a minute do I think that the red highlighted sentence was uttered by those parents.

The copy I borrowed has been back at my local library for months, but I have just remembered something I found strange.......Kate mentions more than once if I remember correcty that she is " not good" when she has not had food. Not an important issue at all, or is it?
Please direct where I can read book online !

Didn't she mention somewhere (in an interview maybe) that she was annoyed with the PJ when she was taken in for questionning that she was not offered any food or drink, she was criticised heavily by many people on the forum that her daughter had gone missing and all she was worried about was not been given anything to eat - her way of covering up for her "me, me, me" attitude perhaps? She obviously reads all the criticisms and is now backtracking.

It’s hard to remember how I managed when I look back and picture myself buttering a piece of toast with one hand (I am very
bad at going without food), holding Madeleine in the other arm and never being able to answer the phone or even go to the
toilet unaccompanied.


[size=7][size=7]
During the second month, I craved high-fat foods. I don’t know how many text messages Gerry received begging him to get
me some chips on his way home. The thought of so much fat is quite repulsive to me normally but at the time my body was
telling me I needed it. Gerry and my friends will testify that any combination of the words ‘Kate’ and ‘hunger’ represents a kind
of emergency at the best of times, but at this stage of my pregnancy there seemed no limit to the amount of chips, sausage
rolls, pizzas and Mars bars my body cried out for.

The above are from the book RD , I am sure there are some more .
