As a fellow brit, what do you make of the Madeleine McCann disappearance?
For those unfamiliar with the story, 3 year-old Maddy was sleeping in the holiday apartment in Portugal with her baby brother and sister 11 days ago while her parents were dining in a nearby restaurant.
Everyone feels for the parents' distress. but the part nobody's happy to talk about is "Who the fUck leaves a 3 year-old and 2 babies in an apartment and slopes off to a restaurant?".
OK. The restaurant was only 100 yards from the apartment, and the parents say they went back every 30 minutes to check on the kids.
And like every other parent, we all make mistakes with our kids and thankfully don't pay such a high price.
But I have to say, there's no way in Bob's green earth I'd leave infants alone at night in a holiday apartment in a foreign country while I went off to enjoy the squid and wine in a restaurant. I've stayed in that resort when Dracoid and the Noblet were about 5 and 9 years old, and it would never occur to leave them alone.
These people aren't pig-Shit-thick trailer-trash - He's a Consultant Cardiologist and she's a Family Physician. How could they be so fUcking dumb
