Sky News, says:Soft toys which were left to remember missing Madeleine McCann in her home town are being donated to children's charities and organisations. Well-wishers placed the gifts, as well as cards and thousands of yellow ribbons, at the war memorial in Cross Green, Rothley, Leicestershire, close to where the McCanns live. Madeleine's family want the teddy bears and other soft toys to be enjoyed by youngsters in Britain and abroad rather than be ruined by the weather. The items will be washed and cleaned before they are passed on - but they cannot be given to hospitals because they have been outside.
Brian Kennedy, Madeleine's great-uncle, said: "There is no point leaving them all up there because in this weather they would have been absolutely ruined. Some of them are pretty new. Sometimes people had bought them to put up there. We would like them to go to children's organisations either at home or abroad." But not all the toys will be passed on to other children - a few will be kept for when Madeleine comes home, reports the Leicester Mercury. Mr Kennedy said: "I think she's all right for toys. We will keep one or two for her."

Nine of Spheres
Nine of Crescents
Nine of Weapons
What is the significance of 9-9-9 I wonder other than the obvious link to the UK Emergency Number .... the Nine of Spheres has the 'happy holidays' literal meaning; it foretells money and unexpected fortune landing in the lap. There is no limit to what it can bring ... while it lasts sit back and enjoy it ... apt statement for the McCanns ...
Nine of Crescents ... literally means 'and they lived happily every after' ... it foretells all-time happy endings. Plans will have great success, a place at the top of the tree is booked and waiting ...
Nine of Weapons ... literally 'lord of despair and cruelty'. This is the dark night of the soul; the time everything appears to have come crashing down. All is however not lost with the positive aspect of the other two images.
It is beginning to appear more and more like a contrived situation. Enforced hardship for sake of an audience ... the nine of Weapons is apparent despair and cruelty ... however the effect of that image feels muted somehow.
