New German suspect in Madeleine McCann mystery disappearance.

[ISpyWithMyEye]

But their timings are to an extent unreliable and none of the T7/9 had watches or phones.

I find that hard to believe that none of the T9 had watches or phones!

How did they know when it was whose turn to do a child-check?

The Tapas Bar must have had a clock, and the staff must have had watches, phones etc.

I can’t believe none of them knew what the time was.


And everyone knows for certain that Kate found Maddie missing at around 10pm...the staff heard and sa wher when she ran back!

The german saw the body, can't be much else surely?

What about.... Perish the thought... The German had a photo on the memory stick

I really don't know.  But if they saw The Body then where is it?

I believe Clarence said not, in one of his interviews.

Regarding a clock, best ask someone who went on holiday there & scouted the place out shortly afterward

Well according to the timeline, that they wrote themselves, Rachel Oldfield asked what the time was at 21.55 - an odd entry to make on a definitive timeline of events given the circumstances, but there you go.

That's how I read it too - and they got the phone number from the EXIF detail.

Makes sense actually.

[ISpyWithMyEye]

Not when you examine the statements and the waiter who served them said they had left by 9:50pm. That time is when Kate left to check according to Matt Oldfield. You would change the timeline to 10pm if you are involved because you had been seen!

Sorry, I don’t understand what you mean.

I read that Kate did a check at 10pm and then ran back to the Tapas Bar screaming that Maddie had been taken.

Are you saying that all the Tapas9 and all the staff lied?

I find that hard to believe that none of the T9 had watches or phones! I agree, but that's what we're told.

How did they know when it was who’s turn to do a child-check? Very good point!!

The Tapas Bar must have had a clock, and the staff must have had watches, phones etc. Indeed, so their statements are important. You can read them all in the PJ Files

I can’t believe none of them knew what the time was. Agreed - in any case the statements do not lead to a conclusive assessment that GM was at the Tapas Bar at the time of the Smith sighting.


And everyone knows for certain that Kate found Maddie missing at around 10pm...the staff heard and sa wher when she ran back! "around" 10pm... being an important observation.

Stop complicating things.

[ISpyWithMyEye]

The staff don't confirm any such thing. Read their statements. One thinks that possibly by as early as 21:30 they'd all left the table (bar one person) to look for the missing girl. At least two of them talk about the "father" being absent for about "half an hour" during the evening in question.

Do you have a link to the waiters’ statements, please?

Heaven forbid. Mistaken over timing, perhaps.

Good One.

"All their friends had to be in on it" is the usual position taken by supporters.

It can never simply be that they were mistaken about the exact time.

They agreed to a time of 10pm for the alarm to have been raised, so were they all mistaken in your view?
