The old thread takes too long to load.

Lets hope this is the one that contains the good news that she has been found alive and well.

I know. It's like being given a look inside some gigantic collective nearly empty head.

nkf... lol. hive mind explodes in tabloid frenzy shocker.

pinballwizard · 17/05/2007 11:51

well put indeed

Londonmamma · 17/05/2007 11:52

Well, Speccy, like you (probably) I look at these threads to see if there IS any news and the same people are scrapping ad infinitum. Just seems a bit sad.

AitchTwoOh · 17/05/2007 11:53

i really have no idea where the axe is going to fall here. the posting name is funny, so i'm hopeful it will be to the side of good taste.

Missymissy · 17/05/2007 11:53

Ah news! Ah no! Ah typical of late MN shoite!

NKF · 17/05/2007 11:53

I think it has promise Aitch. There was a distinctly Private Eye air about it.

NKF · 17/05/2007 11:54

But where are the ghouls this morning? Retreated to their lair or on page 10 of their google search.

AitchTwoOh · 17/05/2007 11:55

bbc news website for those interested in actual news

JoolsToo · 17/05/2007 11:55

"There are people on here who want to talk about Madeleine McCann. There are others who don't.

PLEASE COULD THE TWO GROUPS STICK TO DIFFERENT THREADS."

Because you see a thread entitles "News updates" and, oddly enough, you assume it has, er, news updates on it only to find that infact it has a load of gossiping about the event and talk of google being better than interpol

SoupDragon · 17/05/2007 12:00

Now, the thread about positive actions people can do I understand, but not this.

frostyflake · 17/05/2007 12:05

All of you who thinks it's funny to mock the people on here have you no other threads you could post on to share your wisdom!!!

"Anyone got a discount code for Boden?"

"Anyone got a reciepe for Tofu?"

"Am I unreasonable to think myself superior?"

quietmouse · 17/05/2007 12:08

nailpolish - as I have already said I am not minding today and my dd is at nursery - not that it's anyone's business

I wasn't on here much yesterday - because I was minding.

Anyway, I don't have to justify myself to you people.

And whoever it was who made the comment about the Mirror - what's wrong with reading the Mirror - we are not all middle class, Boden wearing, SAHMs you know

NKF · 17/05/2007 12:09

Plenty of other threads to choose from but none as deserving of mockery as this one.

ThatBeetroot · 17/05/2007 12:10

yes the mirror really covers the news in depth

I think the reading level it is aimed at is 8

Londonmamma · 17/05/2007 12:11

Soupdragon - I should have known it was a bad idea to post anything on a Madeleine McCann thread. I was only trying to restore some peace and harmony to MN . One day I'll learn ....

pinballwizard · 17/05/2007 12:11

people have tried various tacks to try to get the ghoulish detcetives to have some insight into their condition but with a total lack of success

ie

ignore them and hope they go away

remonstrate

point out their deficiencies

mock them

but they are totally 100% thick

frostyflake · 17/05/2007 12:13

I can only assume those of you who like to mock others and think this is clever to try and outdo each other with your smart comments were once the school bullies!!!!
