Now we are just into Chapter 2 "Looking for Zebras"   page 13 he mentions a night security guard manning the secondary reception entrance.  I never seen anyone mention that the reception entrance was controlled  nor a statement from that guard.  Has anyone got an insight on that task?
There was no guard the evening that we ate there Rob, but it was deathly quiet. 

There was a desk placed in the corner facing the entrance but no one manned it.  Not to say that this was the case on other evenings.

To Danny's credit he does raise a good point in Chapter 12 "Blood and Fluids" page 96, where he points out that there were  no enquires into who had rented the Renault Scenic prior to the McCanns hiring it.  I would imagine that was done but was it?
Enquiries should have been made but as the dogs alerts amounted to nothing, it seems that it doesn't matter any more.

Another gem that Danny Collins makes is on page 118 Chapter 15 "Flight of the Imagination"  where he puts up his own scenario of what could have happened, the point being that if an intruder entered via the patio doors they would lock them once inside to give them valuable time to escape if someone else turned up.

It still matters to me.  I have not heard that they have found Madeleine as yet.

Further on the hire car is mentioned again Chapter 16 " Forensics and Cuddle Cat"  he mentions people's comments as to why the Scenic was not impounded as crucial evidence.

Possibly someone from this group, Rob. They did operate back in 2007.

In Gerry's blog did he really write what is quoted in the book "Vanished"  "Anyone who knows anything about 3 May knows that Kate is completely innocent." Chapter 21 "Seismic Shifts" p.. 180.

It appears to be confirmed on several sites http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/uknews/1562421/Madeleine-McCanns-mother-fears-charge.html

How could Gerry know for certain what Kate had done when they are not together?

There was no forensic evidence which confirmed the dog's alerts, but that doesn't mean they amounted to nothing. Dog alerts can be proved to be right at a later date.

Not on the night Madeleine disappeared otherwise they would have been crucial to the investigattion and the first contact for the police.

I deal in facts, not beliefs.

I seem to recall reading somewhere that the guard was a multi tasker and not full time.  Had there been a guard on duty the night Madeleine disappeared surely they would have been pro active.
