Smart phone use is definitely a generational thing especially when it comes to text/whatsapp etc. Whoever found the dog obviously didn't consider it important enough to inform anyone until after the appointment. Hindsight is a wonderful thing and being in the moment is a completely different kettle of fish. I'm sure the person who found the dog has been replaying the scenario over and over wishing they would have done differently and I just hope their mental health doesn't suffer because of it.

You would of thought if there was any scrap of foulplay / crime scene type scenario.. the area would of been combed through and that item would of been bagged up as potential item of interest. Maybe the police do know more than they are letting on and we have no reason to believe foul play... or maybe the area of interest is elsewhere

The family. She is a friend of NB & PA. JMO
She wasn't a dog walker though! She was just going for a walk along the river. She could be someone who picks discarded bits up while walking and stick it in her pocket to dispose of at home. Left by fishermen anything really. People do this on beach walks too, simply helping the environment.
I agree. I've been thinking the same thing!

The information about the search was a Tweet. It was a response to someone questioning why the bench wasn’t taped off. They said that they’d dealt with it forensically immediately.
I’ve tried to find and photograph it but I cancelled my Twitter account, so I’m limited in what I can see! It was on thread three, I think. I’ll go and take a look and amend if necessary.
Not sure LE would just leave that behind, would they?

JMO But I think the person who found Willow and the phone may be getting on in years and may not be tech-savvy

She was a dog walker according to this statement from the police:
Lancashire Constabulary - Missing Nicola Bulley - latest update

I think it was MSM that reported she was just having a walk along the river. IMO.

Returning to the <modsnip> theory touched upon upthread that it was NB's friend dressed as NB that day (on the Ring doorbell footage for example), as many of the photos on FB show her in a bobble hat (plus the wife of white dog man, IIRC, referred to NB previously dressed as such), wouldn't it have been more easy to pass herself off as NB by wearing a hat? Not for one moment suggesting she a) wanted to do this or b) actually did.
I do see the similarity - particularly in the cheekbone area - between recent pics in MSM of this friend and the doorbell footage of NB on the morning of 27th Jan <modsnip>

That's interesting because the other friend - Emma - also said she wanted Faulding's crew to come up in order to eliminate the river. ( I cannot recall her exact phrase but it was wtte of confirm that NB had not fallen in the water)
