This is slipping from the news and the police are starting to scale down their seraches.

Evidence seems to suggest that Madeline may have been taken to Spain and yet very few people out there are aware of what has happened or what she looks like etc.

We need to send as many emails as we can to Spanish businesses with a poster attachment and highlight this case.

I need mumsnetters to volunteer.

I have called in sick today to get this started but this is a massive task and I cannot do it on my own.

Please let me know if you can help.

debbsyandsonn · 11/05/2007 22:12

Sorry im back now only just got my little baby boy off to sleep what do you need me to do?

Bubble99 · 11/05/2007 22:12

I will email this to Barcelona. Two friends there. One working in haulage.

I'd like to help, anything is worth a try - I'm so sad about this.

My mum lives in Spain but sod's law she arrived in the UK today for a holiday. I'm going to try and see if she has any details with her so I can email her contacts. She also has business links with Burger King so I'll see if I can get them to put up some posters.

In the meantime, I've emailed Diario Sur and Sur in English which are papers published in both English and Spanish and distributed along the Costa Del Sol.

I shall UPS for you, know a fair few people there (my covers not blown is it?)
Have just done a few aikido dojo's too!

mumemma · 11/05/2007 22:23

Just another thought - there's a large Danish and German expat community on the Costa Del Sol so it would be worth trying to reach them too. I'll see if I can look up some expat groups.

Frizbe · 11/05/2007 22:28

ok have mail'd my ups contacts, will let you know if they can assist in due course. There not a great co, for advertising anything other than themselves tho

about the eurovision - anyone know Terry Wogan to ask him? Or has it all been recorded already?

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 22:30

None of thema re Frizbe (used to work in industry myself, albeit smaller company) but worth a go eh?

ThisIsDavinaPleaseDoNotSwear · 11/05/2007 22:31

Peachy, I have emailed all of the Belgian Freight companies in your post at 21.53

Eurovision is live I think

Well sort of live

mumemma · 11/05/2007 22:32

I've emailed the Javea Computer Club on the Costa Blanca, they're a long established expat group.

PeachyChocolateEClair · 11/05/2007 22:34

Does anyone know who does the postal servixces in Spain and those countries? TPG do some and have e-mailed them, but Posties see everything

ThisIsDavinaPleaseDoNotSwear · 11/05/2007 22:34

I agree that Eurovision is a wonderful opportunity. What other programme does the whole of Europe watch at the same time?

tatt · 11/05/2007 22:54

Try sending a message to wake up with wogan here www.bbc.co.uk/radio2/shows/wogan/contact.shtml
