Smithman's route from apartment 5a to the beach according to Pathfinder.

Only one witness said the child was wearing a long sleeved garment ... if all had concurred it would give your thinking that this was not the missing child more weight ... but I don't think one statement can be taken in isolation to prove it was not the missing child.

It seems a bit risky to say oh the long sleeves seen by a witness at the smith sighting don't fit with it being the missing child so let's assume the witness was mistaken and they were short sleeves.

Not at all ... if the witness says she saw long sleeves that is fine.

If the other two witnesses whose statements we have seen didn't that is fine also. 

It should be borne in mind that witness number one couldn't remember which day it was that she took the flight home.

@Sadie if the bin which no-one ever uses changes colour is it possible the colour is a code to signal to a small craft offshore? For example, a plain grey bin might signal "Located a target - go ahead at midnight" and a blue bin might signal "my torch batteries are getting a bit flat please bring replacements onshore by jetski and make sure they are alkaline this time" and so on. Striped bins of two or three colours could even be used to do multiplexing of several signals.

What fun 

I like it

[sadie]

it's strange Sadie that bin being there, what is your theory, did Mossad place it there? Or the PJ? Or protectors of the abductorz. Do tell

Psst, dont tell anyone

........ but it was the B&Q Global Spy Organisation .. aka MFI

Very true ...
In one experiment during the Cold War a cat, dubbed Acoustic Kitty, was wired up for use as an eavesdropping platform. It was hoped that the animal - which was surgically altered to accommodate transmitting and control devices - could listen to secret conversations from window sills, park benches or dustbins.
Victor Marchetti, a former CIA officer, told The Telegraph that Project Acoustic Kitty was a gruesome creation. He said: "They slit the cat open, put batteries in him, wired him up. The tail was used as an antenna. They made a monstrosity. They tested him and tested him. They found he would walk off the job when he got hungry, so they put another wire in to override that."
Mr Marchetti said that the first live trial was an expensive disaster. The technology is thought to have cost more than £10 million. He said: "They took it out to a park and put him out of the van, and a taxi comes and runs him over. There they were, sitting in the van with all those dials, and the cat was dead."
The document, which was one of 40 to be declassified from the CIA's closely guarded Science and Technology Directorate - where spying techniques are refined - is still partly censored. This implies that the CIA was embarrassed about disclosing all the details of Acoustic Kitty, which took five years to design.

Crikey.

Now that is going a bit far.

Poor cat.   Altho I suppose it coul have been very useful had it worked.

Well it makes more sense than your pointers.

The long sleeves

One of three things in my opinion:

1)  It wasn't Madeleine

2)  It was Madeleine, but she was shivering and maybe turning blue, so she was taken somewhere en route and they "borrowed" a long sleeved top for her.   I have always wonderd if the time differences between the Jane Tanner sighting and the Smith sighting meant that she had been taken somewhere en route?   

I wondered about the "Staff Quarters".

They are just up the road from the Smith sighting, according to someone on the 3A's a scream was heard coming from somewhere there

.... and I have always felt that the lifting of Madeleine, from her bed, would have been done by someone that she knew in case she woke up.

3) that the witness was mistaken about the long sleeves.  This seems the least likely to me.

Judge the minute number that you have seen, as you like in your own bigotted way.

..... but you haven't seen the vast majority of them

The witness states the exact correct date of the return flight and the fact that she adds something like "but I am not completely sure" raises the quality of this witness IMO.
No unsureness is stated about the long sleeves.

There is evidence they were long sleeves - because that is what a witness states.
There is no evidence they were short sleeves
A theory must fit the facts.

I really do not have a theory about what happened to Madeleine that includes Smithman.

IMO smithman is probably an innocent father carrying his own daughter..
