Reply from Helen:

Quote:

I have heard about this 'carer' person, though I'm as yet unsure whether to
take it seriously or as some sick joke. I'll keep you informed either way.
Thank you so much for your email.

Helen


My response:

Quote:

No problem, we're all here to help. We just want to know what this
'carer' might have planned. Can you tell us anything more about your
daughter which isn't on your website?

Thomas.


Also got a response from the carer after pretty much asking him/her to do something:

Quote:

Keep an eye on my website. I'm sure you'll find something, in time.


Well there you go.

Seems to me like the Carer finds the method by which these people were acquired is distasteful, but at the same time feels that they do need help. He's not helpng us to find them, he's helping them too... clean out their souls with soap and water???

JUst got an email from Helen saying that the talent in the article refers to Amanda's writing skills. Have asked for specifics, and whether it might have been how Kyle met, their common trait.

Keep an eye...
Time for photoshoppers and desteggers to get jiggy with that eye photo on the site.

EDIT: I must disagree with the conclusion that the eyes are the same, I think the eye on carers site is a generic image. The eyes are the wrong shape and all.
Nice to see another newbie around though! Very Happy

Reply from Helen after asking about Amanda:

Quote:

Erm, she was working as a journalist on one of the local papers... though
they've asked for the paper name not to be mentioned as they'd like to
disasociate themselves from all of this. I think that's absolute bollocks
in all honesty, if you'll excuse my language. I can't think of a more
dispicable thing to do.

Erm. She has a sister, Jemma, who lives in Australia now... though I can't
think that would be relevant. She loves music, though I can't see the
relevance in that either. I don't know. What kind of things? There are
lots of little details, I suppose.

Helen


My reply:

Quote:

Well, there are several other people who have been kidnapped, and we
want to find out if there is any underlying similarity which might
have made them targets. Thanks for the info, let's hope it will help
us to get to the bottom of things.

Thomas.


Hmmmmmm.

Er, she said that she'd met a guy called Kyle and that she kinda liked him. She used to talk about stuff he'd said, funny stuff, jokes and so on. She went out with him a couple of times, I think.

Helen


Hmm. Was Kyle luring her into this trap? Was he actually another victim? We need to find out what they had in common, but Helen doesnt seem to know.

Just received this from Helen:

I'm going to try and dig out the full article for you.

Amanda is a very good journalist, so I'm assuming that's what the 'talent' referred to. I played no part in the article though, so I couldn't say for certain.

Thank you for your concern
Helen

If Amanda was a journo its possible she uncovered something she wasnt supposed to. The carer did say they wouldnt learn

Press on, james. Did Amanda ever talk about her work, etc. Get as much detail as possible.
Also, ask whereabouts Amanda lives. Can't Hurt.

Continuing with my conversation with "The Carer"
I wrote
Quote:
What is it that they need to learn, and who is teaching the lesson?

It's response
Quote:
What they need to learn, specifically, differs from person to person.
Generally, they need to learn how to live.

And the lesson isn't being "taught" by anyone. Think of it as an
exercise in self-teaching, if you will.

Update on http://thecarer.0nyx.com/

Its a webcam of Amada, and when you click it it asks for a password.

Spoiler (Rollover to View):
Chippy discovered the password was 'eden' which leads to...
*Chat log from 26/06/05

carer: Evening
dennison: Yes.
carer: Everything in order for tomorrow?
dennison: Seems to be. I have a map to all the pickups.
carer: And to the safehouse?
dennison: I'll find my way.
dennison: If not, I have your number.
carer: You do.
carer: What kind of timeframe are we looking at?
dennison: Explain.
carer: How long will it take you to make all seven pickups, then get to the safehouse?
dennison: Not sure, to be honest.
carer: I need to know. I'm being repeatedly asked for timeframes.
dennison: Maybe ten, eleven hours, then. It'll be done by the morning, anyway.
carer: Excellent. Then we are go.
dennison: We are.
