ShiningInLuz tours hits the mainstream Press.

What it does show is 3 of the 4 couples had provision to go to the Millennium restaurant for their evening meal, accompanied by their children, should they so desire.

They were able to go to breakfast each morning too.

You appear to be a "tour guide" now, Shining.

Looks like the Mirror is attempting to cash in on the frenzy by rehashing old stories.  How very typically!

The deeply departed bit is about a week or two old, so the Mirror seems to follow my blog.

Just so you know, I am getting feedback on my blog right now which looks suspiciously like the media is ramping up on anniversary 10.

Between my blog and the rumble of sh**e in the press over the SC in the last week or so, I would estimate we are about 2 on the Beaufort scale or Richter scale re Maddie anniversary 10.

I am predicting no more than a 6 (on Beaufort/Richter).  Does anyone have a differing opinion?

It would appear that the McCann's are trying to use the latest appeal as a delaying tactic, until the 10 th 'anniversary'.

They know the appeal won't work, but are steadfastly plotting a comeback in May.

I will not have any spurious criticism of Shining.  Be warned.

Infamous Apartment 5A has now been sold to a British gran after complaints from tourists

THE holiday flat where Madeleine McCann vanished from has finally been closed to tourists after complaints they were “too spooked” to stay there.

Infamous Apartment 5A in Portugal’s picturesque Praia da Luz has now been sold to a British gran who is enjoying holidaying there while trying to “wipe away all memories of the horror that happened.”

The property, which the new owner is partially shielding from public view, was axed from tour operators’ recommended accommodation after stunned holidaymakers learned it was “the Maddie flat.”

A British expat living in the resort told The Sun Online said today: “The place is no longer being used as a holiday option. I’m surprised it lasted so long as a viable let with its grim history.”

Portuguese police fear the youngster died accidentally in the seaside resort’s sought-after property. But her parents believe she was kidnapped while they were dining in a nearby tapas bar with pals, and could still be alive.

Someone, possibly Brietta?, did say that 5A was sold about 6 months ago.

Just for the record, I have never been inside 5A.  Nor have I been inside the little passageway in front of block 5 that separates it from the car park.

I have been in the block 5 car park, to see how it connects to the block 4 car park and what the alleyway between the two blocks looks like.

And I have been in the passageway to the south of both blocks, on the basis that it is the best location for someone who 'dunnit' (not the McCanns).

Hmmm - Cardy, Kandohla, Selby.  I'm thinking on it.  Question is, who got most sued.

Thanks for the link.
