Well quite but why is Bennett peddling that now.

Can't recall him saying that before....

March 2017? That's pretty impressive weather records.. Very Happy

I just want to know why Bennett, all of a sudden afaik, is stating that it was 100F / 37C at lunchtime Sunday the 29th in which he is adamant that that was when the TLP was taken... scratch

**Freedom** Mon 09 Jan 2017, 2:58 pm

I have always thought that the "sweating like a pig" image of Gerry in particular did not appear feasible for this early in the year.

If it really was that hot on the Sunday, I don't recall hearing of it before.

Andrew Mon 09 Jan 2017, 5:11 pm

TB this morn:

(when, by the way, it was 70F in the shade at midday and around 100F+ in the sun - i.e. quite hot)

TB this aft:

I also said that if the shade temperature on Sunday 29th was 70F, the actual temperature in the sun could be as high as 100F (38C).

So this chart produces the shade temperature does it now?

And some YouTube vid of an American kid, fresh out of college, doesn't prove anything about the weather temp in PDL.

Rather than posting up a chart then an actual link would be so much better so we can all see the original source and whilst you're looking for that, maybe you'll answer my question from the other day in what you 'suggested' to the McCanns lawyers.

Great stuff. Cheers. Very Happy

bluebell Mon 09 Jan 2017, 5:15 pm

Thanks for that Andrew - yeah my format all goes to pot when I try to post it also

I welcome debate but truly think it would have been 'chilly' as we Brits say in late April/early May. It isn't the 'season' fgs.
Around 2 pm (hottest part of day) max 20 C at best, and in full sun for that. Evenings after sundown 10 c or below - I wouldn't be outside in those temps myself. bounce

With grateful thanks to shininginluz, here are the temperature records for the full week Sunday 29 April to Saturday 5 May both at Faro (42 miles away) and Sagres (13 miles away).

Oh dear, the temperatures are almost identical on the Sunday and the Thursday, about 65 degrees. In fact, Sagres was fractionally warmer on the Thursday. That's about 19degrees C. That is 'pleasant', at best warm. It is far from hot, and unless Gerry has just finished a vinderloo it is hard to believe he would break sweat like that.

Faro

Sagres

Obviously, it could have been sunnier on the Sunday and cloudy on the Thursday, but it certainly wasn't warmer.

Andrew Mon 09 Jan 2017, 7:08 pm

A very good find, Dee. Many thanks for posting that up.

So with Bennetts nonsense of breaking record temperatures of 100F plus on the Sunday to practically a snowstorm on the Thursday is again, complete utter tosh.

Very Happy

Dee Coy rant

Post by Tony Bennett Yesterday at 10:14 pm
A few days ago there was a plethora of truly ridiculous versions on candyfloss's forum about the 'creation' of the Last Photo. Not only was there canada12's 'flower pattern' idea, but a series of other improbable ideas, all of them trying to evade the obvious, namely that the Last Photo was genuine photo, almost certainly taken on Sunday 29 April.

One of the most absurd interpretations was that of dee coy who believed she could 'divine' that the weather on the Last Photo was 'too hot' to have been taken on Sunday 29 April (when, by the way, it was 70F in the shade at midday and around 100F+ in the sun - i.e. quite hot). She suggested that it 'must have been' taken on a hotter day some time before Gerry McCann's trip to England 20-22 May (in which case Gerry must have arranged for a photographer to take a pic of him and Amelie by the pool and then somehow shop Madeleine into it as well).

I'm suprised aquila hasn't posted on that thread.

She usually pops up wherever Verdi and Bluebag are, but she doesn't seem to post there at all these days.

Maybe she's been photoshopped out?

Antonia Mon 09 Jan 2017, 7:28 pm

Dee coy - you suggest that only a vindaloo might have caused Gerry to break out into a sweat.

Could it have been

a marathon game of tennis?

a marathon session in the bedroom with the fragrant Kate?

or chasing after naughty children?

there are many possibilities.......

I played football over there once. I didn't stop sweating for about five hours afterwards. Seriously.

You're right, Antonia. I do him a terrible injustice.

All that marching up and down to the creche in 30 seconds flat in order to be at the pool at that time could be a bit pant-inducing.

Or all that sweating over a hot barbecue on Madeleine's birthday if you are partial the 'LP taken after 3rd May' theory. And, of course all that deleting of texts can work up a bit of a sheen, as well as cramping the thumb (it does look a bit red).

Poor Gerry. Bless 'im. He wasn't there to enjoy himself, you know.

Andrew Mon 09 Jan 2017, 8:38 pm

Well if this photo was taken after the 3rd then it's not surprising Gerry has a sweat on.

No, he only picks and chooses.

However I want to ask just one simple question to do with this photo stuff. A decent explanation would be good - but I fear impossible.

If as Mr Bennett and a few others suggest something happened to Madeleine right at the start of the holiday, and all this so called 'evidence' they have, which of course is nothing of the sort apart from speculation, that she according to them died earlier, How on earth does he explain, (and others he researches with) how all those people acted normally for the rest of the week, playing tennis and taking children to creches etc. Is he seriously trying to tell us they were all such good actors enjoying their holiday, whilst they knew something terrible had happened to Madeleine. No chance, it would be impossible for so many to possibly do that, and to say perhaps some didn't know, then how could they explain where Madeleine was?

This is the crux of the whole thing.

We only have their say so that they had a jolly happy time during that week. If you look at what documented "evidence" there is, we see tennis sheets depicting some of them were able to appear on court for an hour at a time. Are these even genuine? We do not know what the mood was like. No one has stated they were laughing and joking the whole lesson so they could have just been going through the motions; playing a part.
I think there was supposed to be a day doing watersports. Where is the independant report of what a hoot they were having? There was one diner ( forget who) who said something about Gerry being the joker or something but I think you could turn on a performance if your life, children and career depended on it.
I'm not therefore, convinced that they couldn't all have acted out a role. When I say all, I mean the ones who were involved from the start. Others may only have had to hide their feelings at the end.

I think it was the week from hell......

I think Portuguese police clocked that their story was codswallop from day one.

GM I suspect fancied the quiz host. I suspect the Mc marriage was very strained.....evidence: the airport bus video....GM in a total strop.

Buxom quiz host materializes.....GM's week from hell becomes less hellish....Something happens on Sunday evening, imo (quiz night?) Monday is a day of panic. Tuesday more chaos as GM invites quiz host to table....Wednesday....a course of action has been decided on...

Thursday - as Dr Amaral states, a faked abduction is staged to cover up for a death.

IMO only.....

Interesting...because according to Kate in her book of the truth the water temperature of the pool when she allegedly went swimming with Madeleine on Saturday was 'freezing'. And according to Kate in her book Sunday night was 'very cold' and she needed lots of layers to keep warm as the group were allegedly sitting in the outside part of the tapas restaurant within sight and ear-shot of the apartment where the children were...

Snipped from TB referring to it this morn:

I do not accept that there ever was a 'crying incidnet' on 1 May, or indeed any other time.

I find it remarkable that he more than accepted it before he had his little chat with the McCann lawyers. Proof of it all on record of him emphasising and putting great credence on it.

The volte-face after these 'suggestions' to the McCann lawyers is fascinating. I wish he would explain a bit more about that... He appears to cherry-pick stuff from here and post up over there but keeps ignoring my question..... I wonder why that is... scratch
