Just spotted this on Twitter - a collection bucket placed in Ocean Club reception

I think the writing on the bucket is Kate McCann's.

OMG !!!! They just cant get Enough MONEY can they !!!!

Is this a 'new' old bucket iykwim. I recall the McCs put one in the OC foyer early days and the staff were upset because it put their tips box out of action.

I've no idea when it dates from, but it could be the "old" bucket, yes. Proves that they were only interested in money from the off.

Are those the good quality wrist bands with the bucket.

Why did they need money because Madeleine had disappeared. forgive me, money will not bring the child back. why do they need money now, will it bring back their reputation, they damaged themselves by leaving their children, they can sue and sue and sue. they are the only people responsible for leaving the children and the far reaching consequences of doing that, and the effect on so many peoples lives.

I thought their wristbands were green and yellow. Maybe they got a job lot of LiveStrong ones - little demand for them these days.

The LOVE of money is at the root of all evil.

They needed the money to protect their reputations, keep themselves out of jail, and sue everyone who questions their version of events! They clearly don't care about bringing Madeleine home, otherwise the majority of the fund money would have actually been spent on this cause. Actions speak louder than words, and the McCanns reputation-protecting, money-grabbing, sue-happy actions make it quite obvious that they have no intention of ever bringing Madeleine home.

There's an example of either Kate's or Gerry's writing at 3.24 on this video and I'd say it's the same as on the bucket.

I feel sure that this is from 2007. It does show what their priorities were right from the start.

Thanks N.B.Y.

When you look at some of the videos, the children look like they come from a loving family. I wonder what happened to make the McCanns behave in such an appalling way towards their children and why they are still behaving in an appalling way towards Sean and Amelie!

Yes, this were the first puckets..later replaced with pucket with picture 'fighting fund'..soon replaced with Fund Ltd. ..lawyers were flown to PDL, and the Fund was ready set in stone 12.5. to be published in UK 16.5.

Only money matters for mccanns, by the look of it all.
It's interesting to read gerry mccanns press statement from 22.5.2007, he makes it clear what matters to them. Just creepy.
