Hi Kriss!

The only mushrooms that are good are the ones that are made into a soup or are swallowed by the handful at festivals. :wink:
If I had the money, I’d chip ’em!
It would give me great peace of mind. (Although they’d probably disagree.)

BREAKING NEWS ON SKY NEWS…..
Gerry McCann is on his way to the airport cos he’s flying back to the UK. Though it has not been confirmed if he will be flying economy or business, whether or not there will be an in flight movie, what the in flight meal will be or indeed whether or not he will eat the meal.
Sources close to the family suggest, however, that he will probably go to the toilet beforehand so as to avoid going on the plane on the off chance that he may go in after someone has been for a dump or perhaps peed on the seat.
We will keep you updated with more news as it reaches us.
Class :D
Seriously though, it’s getting a bit out of hand.
Remember little Sarah Payne? Her parents were given some help and did the round of public pleas to her captor to return her safely and we all to a certain extent shared their grief and disbelief at this innocent wee girl’s disappearance.
Not once though can I remember her parents being chastised or belittled by the general public for being unconcerned or for being “bad parents.” She had been happily playing with her siblings when it occurred and our hearts went out to her brothers and sister who were safe.
This case is different for more than a few reasons. Namely because Madeline hasn’t been found yet but also because of her mother and father’s lack of vigilance. It’s also different because little Madeline was taken from a foreign country. The outpouring of sympathy for Madeline is warranted and comforting to see, but a bigger deal is being made out of this case as “one of our own” was taken while she was in a different country. It automatically gets our backs up and makes us angry and more willing to do more, even if it’s a simple pledge of money or by making people more aware of what happened in order to keep other kids safe and sound.
The media in this case is very important, it keeps us up-to-date with the latest news about her disappearance and is obviously important to her family who are using the media to keep Madeline constantly in the news, therefore keeping people aware of the situation incase they have any information they may be able to use. But… I am getting a bit tired of it to be honest. If there’s no new news, we then see pictures of her family going to church, we see pictures of people awash with yellow ribbons and see “celebrities” campaigning on Madeline’s parents behalf (like the sick ba$tard that took her is gonna be convinced to hand her back courtesy of an appeal by Beckham) jeezus!
Maybe I’m getting cynical in my old age, but I feel that Madeline’s disappearance is now playing second fiddle to her grieving family. What about her brother and sister? What about the parents being dragged over the coals for leaving three young kids alone? Is that still to come? Can’t the media donate some money or spend some money going to places that Madeline has apparently been seen? Most of these may be hoaxes or misleadings but surely it’s worth taking everything into consideration incase they miss something?
I think we all need to take stock, hug our kids a little tighter, be a bit more vigilant and remember Maddie, not her parents.
