Did Jane Tanner get the time mixed up, when she checked? and could have possibly seen JW earlier\or laterThese are typed versions of the two time lines, written that night\early hours by the group, on the inside over of the Madeleine's colouring book.
Why did O'B almost immediately on JT's return go back to the children. Keep in mind it was MO who went with him that returned to say, he (O'B) had remained behind, since one of the children had vomited, thus necessitating JT to ''relieve him'' so he could return to his meal.

http://www.mccannpjfiles.co.uk/PJ/RUSSELL-OBRIEN.htmWitness statement of Russel O'Brien 4th May 2007 @ 9.45''At around 9pm, they had all ordered their meals. While they were eating, it was normal that every 15 minutes, one person from each apartment would go to the apartments/bedrooms make sure the children were ok. Yesterday, as **** was not well, the interval between checks was reduced. He recalls that Matthew Oldfield left the restaurant at shortly after 9pm to check the children. He is no longer sure who went out first, but five minutes later, Gerry McCann and his own partner, Jane, went out, almost at the same time, to check the children.
Jane could have come back first because she found Gerry chatting with a person who is also a guest in the same place, named Jez. He thinks that Jane only checked their apartment, being worried about ****. Then Gerry came back at around 9.25/9.30 and they started to eat the first course. [as entradas]".
At around 9.35/9.40, taking advantage of the lull [waiting pause] before being served with the first [main] course, the informant left the restaurant with Matthew to check the children.
When he got there, his daughter **** was crying. He stayed in her bedroom with her. He supposes that Matthew checked his apartment. Matthew returned to the restaurant five minutes after leaving it. His partner came to take his place in ****'s bedroom around 15 minutes later after finishing dinner.
At around 9.55, he went back to the restaurant where his food had been waiting for 5 or 10 minutes. All the other adults had finished.''
A bit difficult to fit some of that in the timeline, but this what makes the timelines so interesting. The one minute people are checking every 30 or so minutes, next it's almost 10-15 minutes apart. Then if Jane got back before Gerry, although this is a total uncertainty, where was Gerry? Jane would have known if she passed him twice whilst chatting to JW.
But in any event for all the dining & attendance at the Tapas Bar, if according to this alleged version of events, Mr McCann was either at some time in the apartment with the abductor
> got in via the unlocked patio door, thus ahead of Mr McCann & hid
or the abductor did, whilst Mr McCann was stood outside by the side gate
> got in through the shutter & unlocked window
> have a duplicate key to get in via the front main door
But strange that he left the windows & shutters open, yet managed to close the front door & perhaps lock it? If of course that is the exit route
And in the event of Mr Oldfield being totally oblivious to the open windows & shutter, conclusion could also be that Madeleine disappeared after his check. But where does that leave the JT sighting?
