I have joined this site solely to remind all you thoughtless, forgetful, selfish ba#@ards that Madeleine McCann is missing!!!!!!!! I cannot understand how anyone can sit with their arms around their own children, in the comfort of a cinema whilst feeding their children popcorn and Coke that there are lots of mothers in this world who cannot do this. Their children have been taken from them and I wonder if any of you had the money or the resources available to them, I wonder if you would have campaigned this long or this hard for their daughters return. I wish the McCanns every success and only wish I could physically find their daughter for them. I am taking my 6 kids to see Shrek tomorrow and I hope my cinema is still showing the Madeleine film. I hope the publicity generated stays in your faces for a long time to come. Tell me, if she passed in front of you down at the shops or at the park could any of you be bothered to actually tell someone. Or are you all just to happy in the knowledge that its not one of your children. There but for the grace of God............

I am writing to hopefully bring some calm to this debate. Unfortunately the press is picking up on this spat and I think all of us need to grow up and realize the damage we may be doing to the Madeleine campaign. Madeleine is missing and all of our children are at risk from these monsters. I understand there may be shock at the ad, but for the sake of Madeleine and what she is going through at the moment, keep your thoughts on the down low and quietly make your complaints known.

What have Sky been saying? Can anyone post a link?

nomdeplume · 03/07/2007 18:10

see, you can tell I'm a Mail reader because I can't spell 'unbiased'

nomdeplume · 03/07/2007 18:11

Oh FGS...

Whoooosh · 03/07/2007 18:12

I don't think we are doing any damage to the Madeleine campaign.
How often has she been in the news in the last week or so-she is now......

I won't bother repeating what some more eloquent posters have said but we do care and we would all wish that she is found-we are not dmaging any campaign.

Sorry to be so predictable Tamum

If you complain quietly, no one hears.

DaisyMOO · 03/07/2007 18:14

I am personally really pleased to hear that the NHS has reduced working hours sufficiently for fully qualified paedeatricians to read a thread of 500+ posts and contribute to another in the middle of the working day. And who says our taxes are misspent?

Ber-limey! Sorry, did I miss sommat? What's the score with hippy sandals? Do MNers wear them or just terrorists? Sorry, kidnappers? Sorry, am I getting confused and hysterical? Blaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah..........

A fully qualified paediatrician who uses multiple exclamation marks and can't use apostrophes or three dot ellipses correctly.

morningpaper · 03/07/2007 18:24

add from fruit shoots for lunch and that sounds spot-on Edam

morningpaper · 03/07/2007 18:25

ADD SOME

bohemianbint · 03/07/2007 18:25

Actually, even if we are all heartless selfish bastards who don't care that children are missing, at least this bickering keeps it all in everyone's minds, so we are, in our unique, unpleasant, cloud cuckoo land type way, doing our bit to keep MM at the forefront of people's minds. Well done fellow Forgetful Bastards!

bellabelly · 03/07/2007 18:25

I have learnt how to do links - I think

tissy · 03/07/2007 18:27

nope, jellyhead, you're either a paediatrician, or you aren't.

Someone who is in training would call themselves a paediatric registrar
