The flames represent light and hope and never giving up."<br /><br />Residents from Rothley and the surrounding villages attended the event to show their support for the family.<br /><br />Hannah Harvey, 14, from Rothley, said: "It's good to remember her and it's respectful to the family. Tonight will help people remember Maddy – it's important to never forget."<br /><br />Frank Hull, 75, from Cropston, said: "The service was very beautiful. Tonight was about remembering a lovely girl and showing Madeleine's parents Kate and Gerry that they have our support."<br /><br />Jo Willars, 47, said: "I live in Rothley so all the news about Madeleine is literally very close to home.<br /><br />"The village will always do what it can to help Kate and Gerry."<br /><br />Chris Wright, 44, from Rothley, said: "I'm Kate's hairdresser and she used to come in all the time with Madeleine – she was such a lovely little girl.<br /><br />"The events in Portugal have really had an effect on the village."Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-60222014949169964882010-01-28T22:38:39.183+00:002010-01-28T22:38:39.183+00:00and the lanterns could not be lit and let off in R...and the lanterns could not be lit and let off in Rothley either. This may have a bad effect on Kate who was perhaps just wanting to send her little girl something. It is quite sad and pathetic really. As Kate's mom said she had been working hard for all of this and her party was a flop too without JK Rowling who made her feel so much better by offering support in those early days. Kate knows that support has now very seriously dwindled.<br /><br />It really is the end of the road for lies, Kate. Never mind what Gerry says, do the right thing for little Maddie and your twins.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-56152783670578337332010-01-28T22:26:06.175+00:002010-01-28T22:26:06.175+00:00I think we need to know whose idea all these lante...I think we need to know whose idea all these lanterns were and whether they are of sound mind? <br /><br />If she is dead Kate, nothing can bring her back, please go to the police and do the best you can for her now.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-53263845746457139812010-01-28T22:24:25.906+00:002010-01-28T22:24:25.906+00:00this is yet another way in which they have done th...this is yet another way in which they have done that Wiz!<br /><br />3 lanterns seen in North West Sutherland and maybe a few more spotted by the coastguard!<br /><br />http://www.northern-times.co.uk/news/fullstory.php/aid/7069/Madeleine__1000_days__lanterns_spark_alert.html<br /><br />CHINESE lanterns set off on Wednesday evening in north west Sutherland in memory of missing Madeleine McCann, sparked an alert involving police and coastguards.<br /><br />A woman reported seeing three bright orange lights in the sky at around 9pm in the Scourie area. She feared they were flares which had been set off by someone in distress.<br /><br />Police called out the local coastguard unit who spotted more of the lights. But enquiries revealed they were Chinese lanterns set off to mark the 1000 days since the disappearance of Madeleine McCann. Lanterns have been released across the UK in support of Jerry and Kate McCann's search for their missing daughter.<br /><br />But local police have now asked to be informed if anyone is still planning to release the lanterns in the Sutherland area.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-33868136730694381672010-01-28T22:23:36.900+00:002010-01-28T22:23:36.900+00:00Speaking of the McCanns overstretching resources a...Speaking of the McCanns overstretching resources and costing the taxpayer a fortune Wiz!<br /><br />By the way your comment earlier about Gerry's sports bag, seen to be using it with Clarence Mitchell.

At least she went to the police and did not start to play games with their memory. I know what she did was unthinkable and there really is nothing positive to say but her family can get on with grieving and not have false hope or doubt....<br /><br />It must have been a kick in the teeth to the 1000 days childrens bodies in sports bags these things just do not happen and we are all sick to belive they ever do...<br /><br />Sadly this is where the pro McCann's got it all wrong trying to say we were something we are not just to give credence to the McCann's tale of woe...<br /><br />No news today about the big night and so far only 5 celebz named i wonder who else went? I am sure we will see all their beaming faces in Hello or another rag but does anyone really care?<br /><br />Nothing on SKY the BBC had a small article under local news and that was that....<br /><br />Kate looked dreadful she is not a well woman and who would be waiting for that knock on the door. She does not know how she should be feeling who tells the press they are going to try and move forward now a 1000 days have passed???<br /><br />I wonder what tasteless stunt will acompany the 3 year anniversary of the night a child was left home alone and vanished into thin air while her parents went on a world tour and never bothered searching for her but created a fund so they could miss direct everyone and say she was anywhere they could not possibly have taken her...<br /><br />Mothers and Fathers sadly sometimes kill thier children why this is so hard for some people to understand is beyond me...<br /><br />if they really belive she is alive they have made sure she wont be found with their vile actionshope4truthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10617271855989681623noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-63211705863489990802010-01-28T18:08:16.423+00:002010-01-28T18:08:16.423+00:00Hiya Di

But brown sandals in the dead of winter, teamed with bronzy black tights, cheap looking black and white dress, cheap looking blue cardy and green ribbon looked absolutely dreadful. This is clearly a woman who can afford and has the looks and figure to look an awful lot better than that. <br /><br />He is smartly dressed although I am not sure about the pink tie. Knowing him, it was a sardonic joke towards all of us who refer to the Pink Spinner. He is very good at putting the two fingers up! He also looks as though he is playing rather more golf than jogging and tennis these days. Like he at least, is feeling the benefits of the affluent high life the Fund provides, even if Kate chooses not to eat. In short, he seems to have put a lot of weight on!<br /><br />So, we have a couple who are presenting very differently. One looks arrogant and defiant, well dressed, smugly over confident and sporting the middle aged spread and another who looks half starved, poorly dressed, and just cannot even look the camera in the eye. <br /><br />If he is just covering for Kate, what does he have to be so smugly amused about? <br /><br />I really do agree, whether she is a battered wife or just as scheming as him, this certainly, on the face of it, is not a game she enjoys playing and it is high time she put a stop to it and went to the police for her own sake even if she cannot think of Madeleine and the twins!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-11100895693729595382010-01-28T17:33:10.154+00:002010-01-28T17:33:10.154+00:00Hi all

Additionally officers report he is a cogent and honest witness who actually took legal action to stop him and his family being harassed. He is only prepared to talk to the police. <br /><br />We may contrast this with the health worker from Notts, Gran Cooper, who had to be warned by Leicester Police to stop chatting to the Daily Mirror!! Jane Tanner then quite amazingly told us, well actually, no, he was not Murat as I first thought he had masses of hair and I think that was him. <br /><br />There is something very credible that comes from the lips of proper police witnesses and those who like to lie for the McCanns and chat to the Daily Mirror. <br /><br />I think that nationally, the police response to calls for help from women suffering domestic violence is an absolute disgrace. This is why two of them die every week. The problem is not peculiar to Leicester Police but it is true to say their resources have been particularly stretched by Team McCann!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13507323081802465917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-39997397347021039812010-01-28T15:28:19.425+00:002010-01-28T15:28:19.425+00:00Hiya both,

Their bodies were found in the boot of her car inside two separate sports bags. <br /><br />Which brings me back to Gerry’s blue sports bag, that he said he didn’t own but was pictured walking along with in the company of Mr. Pink. If the Smith’s sighting was incorrect it would have been so easy to dispose of a small body without raising attention. So easy.<br /><br />In another article today Leicestershire police are again criticised. Joanne Butler was battered to death in her flat after making two 999 calls to the police who failed to respond apparently too busy to come to her aid according to a damming report. <br /><br />This is the second time Leicestershire police have been hauled up over their alertness to take action after last year they missed dozens of opportunities to tackle yobs who drove Fiona Pikington to kill herself and her teenage daughter.<br /><br />Hmm…Wizardhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13647410173508843374noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8388977942755921926.post-70305617083378110502010-01-28T15:08:20.287+00:002010-01-28T15:08:20.287+00:00Fiona Philips, Peter Bowles, Gloria Hunniford and ...Fiona Philips, Peter Bowles, Gloria Hunniford and David Steele.
