oh, is that true??

DrDaddy · 07/06/2007 16:18

Yes. It's sitting on my desk in my office in London.

Peachy · 07/06/2007 16:35

Oh I pray he phones back- but how could you keep that a secret?

Twiglett · 07/06/2007 16:35

well I certainly hope its a positive sign but it being in the 'evening standard' does not necessarily mean its true

still hope there's a resolution soon

lucykate · 07/06/2007 16:36

there is another thread about this caller but on that there is a link to gerry mccan's blog which more or less says it was a false alarm

DrDaddy · 07/06/2007 16:36

Apparently the McCanns were told to delay boarding a flight to Amsterdam, but police couldn't get back in touch with the man, so they eventually took off.

NuttyMuffins · 07/06/2007 16:36

Apparently the Maccans have already said that this phonecall has lead to nothing. Think the general idea now is that it was a hoax.

...that it's prob a hoax i mean

DrDaddy · 07/06/2007 16:39

cod -

I'm far too busy to get worked up about comments like that. see ya folks

mylittleimps · 07/06/2007 16:40

i don't understand why it was given to the press just on the off chance it is genuine. don't think it is necessary for the press to have everything, description of suspects yes immediately, this sort of development no

holsnovell · 07/06/2007 16:40

God i hope its true. I never prayered for someone so much X

BishyBarneyBee · 07/06/2007 16:43

really agree with WB - she kind of put into words what I was thinking.

I find the 'light hearted' approach on here more than a little hard to swallow.

Peachy · 07/06/2007 16:53

Only some on here are light hearted bishy

many of us skip the chat but are genuinely interested in news if there is any.

this development seems positive to me.it seems really likely she is alive.

compo · 07/06/2007 17:01

I thought it was a hoax TM?

TaylorsMummy · 07/06/2007 17:01

i thought someone said a hoax had been ruled out cos of the info given? maybe they are playing it down in the hope he will ring back?

Hulababy · 07/06/2007 17:03

According the Gerry McCanns's blog site the most recent update proved to be insignificant and they have continued with their plans to move round Europe. Sjy are always far too quick to most so called updates, and often there actually ends up being no real news at all.

DrDaddy · 07/06/2007 17:31

icod - I'm a not infrequent poster on a parenting forum, I thought. I tend to avoid threads where people post asinine remarks. Don't bother engaging any further. I shan't.

Well I answered you seriously WB, and all I can say is that I would probably have forgotten all about it by now if this thread hadn't risen it's head.

Ok it's naff & crap, but if her name comes up in MN active convos and just one, I mean just one person goes away on holiday to Morrocco and sees her, (long shot I know) at least it will still be in their minds.

I don't watch the news everyday. The only thing that keeps her name in my mind is here. Obviously real life has to take over for some amount of time. But at least it keeps it up, which is what the MCNs want to do.

They are lucky. They have the power & backing to do so.

If it seems a bit weird, then okay, but who on earth can say that it's weird to do mad things when looking for your missing child. THEY WANT us to talk about Madeline, not forget her because of some ban on MN (which is very powerful IMO)

cutekids · 07/06/2007 20:55

I started another thread earlier on today about this so called phone call.Sadly, it seems it was another hoax. Sorry.
