Pretty odd, knowing the Scouse female in intimate detail. None, and I mean none I have come across would opt to simply run across and then create a fuss, not if their husband was within earshot and not as an instinctive reaction.
But feel free to think I think it's also suspicious if you think it somehow discloses my real opinion.
The abduction theory is put out by the McCanns. I find it easy to disregard it even as a possibility.
Because . IF you KNEW your daughter had been abducted, any normal parent would shout very loudly “my daughter has been abducted help! help!” Or someone call the police.
Kate claims she said “Madeleine is gone” after running to the tapas area to alert the group. The reason I would give for their behaviour in those ‘crucial’ moments (if the crucial moments were between 9.30 and 10pm as they claim), is ; they all went back to the apartment to discuss what they were going to do, and what to explain to people about children being left alone every night. Especially, when there was sufficient child minding services available.
Not to mention their claim that they were like sitting in a garden like. So, if they are so close, as they claim then Kate would not have been required to shout very loud at all., OR leave the twins!
