Allison Baden-Clay - GENERAL DISCUSSION THREAD #35

[TootsieFootsie]

I'm not strong at all but and have only had one that broke, but a male friend has had a few break. Then again he mainly replaces the bulbs for me, very high ceilings :waitasec:
I wasn't even putting any pressure at all on the one that broke. Maybe that one was a bit faulty, who knows.

Thanks for these lists guys. I might attempt over the next few days to expand the rumour list and add a few details about whether it was reported by more than one person etc, maybe even categorise them.

But it's good to have the list of facts including info that came out in the bail hearing. We may be able to revivie some discussion.

Great idea. Someone said it before...about us web sleuths resorting to rehashing stuff as we have little else to do...especially if we're not supposed to discuss rumours etc. What WILL we do to pass the time? Well, patience is a virtue and all that I have closely followed the JonBenet Ramsay case for 14 years! Only 1 arrest and that was a dodgy attention seeker who didn't do it anyway. So for many, many years it's been about rumour, DNA, new DNA screening, death of a parent and lots and lots of other things. Yet, it remains unsolved. So on that note I think I must get to bed because I'm like many - frustrated we don't have more info but I know it's an all in good time thing. I'm glad it's not like JBR - so long and yet little in terms of closure. Night all

reported by news.com at the bail hearing, so these two can probably come off the rumour list, blood in the car and gbc with scratches, and also evidence of more mistresses and accessing life insurance, both were reported at bail hearing and by msm.
tragic if all the rumours turn out to be true!

- Baden-Clay was the last person to see his wife alive.

- He had injuries to his face that he claimed were from shaving, but a forensic analysis concluded to the contrary. The analysis showed the marks were scratches.

- He told police that he was a heavy sleeper and had no idea whether his wife had come to bed but forensic analysis from his mobile phone showed it had been unplugged from its charger at 8.45pm on April 19 and reconnected at 1.48am on April 20. Police also found evidence of a "face time" call between Baden-Clay and his father Nigel's number shortly after midnight.

- Allison's blood was found in the rear of Baden-Clay's car, consistent with "her body being moved by being placed in the rear of the car"

sorry timmy, didnt mean to repeat what you have already just posted!!!

Have had a few that died within days as well as the ones that broke right away and some were actually not the cheapest brands. They did seem very fragile. Had trouble with the Mirabella brand and also a couple of Philips ones.

Anyway, I do recall an electrician telling my elderly mother that there were some cheaper brands on the market that were very fragile, prone to overheating and basically exploding due to their inferiority.

Mirabella were what my mother had and a friend said the Aldi ones burnt out really quickly. I wonder if GBC used Aldi or Mirabella - jeez if he'd known us we could have helped his little cut story Being facetious aren't I hehe.

I might be wrong but I specifically mentioned something about the light bulb cut thing several weeks ago on here. I said I really doubted it would happen unless it was a very old type of light bulb - not the newer energy saving type as they don't seem to break as easily. Even with an old one it'd have to be a rarity I think. Anyway, I can't remember who responded except the poster said they felt they did break easily (despite me dropping two on tiles without breakage - I had a gumby day lol) and I'm pretty certain that poster said it was in fact corroborated from a fellow worker that he did cut his hand on the bulb (ie. it was witnessed). At least that's my recollection - might be wrong but it'd be back in the threads somewhere. So I'm glad to now hear what I think is the opposite and it didn't happen. Agreed...how stupid!

I am sure I read that it was in the prosecution's affidavit filed in the bail hearing as one of the pieces of evidence against him, i.e. that he had lied about how he had an injury on his palm and his '"witness" denied his claim he had cut it on a lightbulb whilst preparing for an open house. I may have seen it on the other forum as someone there had a copy of it and gave quite a few details of its contents.

Wow that's very interesting.
I thought I'd read everything about the case but there are some things there I didn't know.

Thanks for posting.

Hi Tootsi,
I just watched the same thing, how interesting was the story though? I felt as though I believed him at first but I dont know much about the story.

Thanks

You are correct but I think that is another thing we are not allowed to discuss.

 

[TootsieFootsie]

I'm using one of the Aldi ones that we put in a couple of months ago, the first one from there that i've tried and it felt a lot stronger than the Mirabella one.
Time will tell how long it lasts I guess :fence:

 

[TootsieFootsie]

Funny that even though the bulbs broke my friend didn't get his hand cut and I didn't either.

I had three Mirabella bulbs go, 2 as soon as I turned them on for the 1st time and 1 lasted three days lol. Thats apart from the ones that broke in our hands, Mirabella and Phiilips.

Mirabella were what my mother had and a friend said the Aldi ones burnt out really quickly. I wonder if GBC used Aldi or Mirabella - jeez if he'd known us we could have helped his little cut story Being facetious aren't I hehe.

Just to add something completely irrelevant at this stage - I was reminded today that OW played "Louisa" in The Sound of Music production in Toowoomba many years ago. I'd completely forgotten about that. There you go - my contribution for today. We really need more news stories don't we.

We sure do!!

Hi Me 2

I didn't watch it but read what was in the link. I did notice you can watch it there online and I might do that tomorrow.

more from the bail hearing mentioning numerous lovers......

HE allegedly called himself Bruce Overland and promised he would come to her a free man by July 1.

But Toni McHugh knew him as Gerard Baden-Clay - her long-time colleague and lover who wanted to free himself from his wife and his life so they could be together.

What she did not know, until police told her, was that Baden-Clay was also allegedly having affairs with two other women, police have claimed in documents tendered in opposition to his bail application yesterday.

According to those same court documents, Baden-Clay had severe financial problems and the string of mistresses

@ fairholme?

 

[TootsieFootsie]

This will be reaching a bit and probably off topic but she has the same name
as the mother Olivia Walton in The Waltons tv series.

And in the original movie that the TV Series was based on, Spencer's Mountain,
the John Boy character was called Clayboy or Clay-Boy.

I hope I don't get sent to the naughty corner :angel:

Can't sleep..so here's my new thought for the day. It's a 'little bit' silly I confess but humour will save us - not mine perhaps though So...

I've always thought Bruce Overland was such a daggy aka to have. Sounds so un-sexy to use with a mistress - like one of the Leyland Brothers uncles!

If he used Bruce Overland with TM, I wonder what/if he used other aliases with the other alleged mistresses? Hmmm...lots of silly names spring to mind. Surely not Dirk Diggler - bahahaha All jokes aside, there are MANY men (and women) who have other mobiles and sim cards to use with their mistresses. It's possible if they found BO (hehe) the QPS might have other phone/email evidence. I bet he wasn't using the home bigpond or Optus account to correspond with these women - nor his mobile as it'd be easy to check. Let's face it, he had a lot going on that I bet he wanted to hide.

Does anyone know how/when Allison found out about TM I wonder? Just curious

@ fairholme?

Toowoomba Philharmonic Society possum, I don't think it exists any more. Kind of like the Choral Society which I think is still around. It would have been when she was at fairholme though.
