• Location: Hamble High Street, Hamble Village, Southampton, Hampshire, UK
• Date: 1st January 2002
• Time: About 11.45pm
• Please phone the police with any information on 0845 045 45 45 or e-mail at dan@victoriacourt.co.uk

• Were you near the square or the pontoon?
• Did you see other boys in the area?
• Were you walking on the other side of the river between 11.30 and 12.30 am?
• Did you see a car etc.?
• Did you see a boat at that time?
• Even if you were closing the curtains, or putting the cat out and saw nothing please let us know, as seeing nothing is as important as seeing something.
• Daniel is a remarkable boy who is extremely bright, a competent swimmer and spent his childhood on and around the river.
• 
• Daniel's last picture taken by himself.
• Despite the police comments that Daniel fell in the water I (as a former analytical scientist of 25 years) understand that there were no skid marks, disturbance in the layer of frost or splashes of ice. (It was a very frosty night). The jetty slopes away from the water, so you would slip up hill, plus a ridge along the center. Next time you are at a swimming pool fall in and then observe the splash patterns on the side. That water falling onto frost would create splashes of ice on the edge. Then try splashing with your arms, I've tried it of course and it makes quite a mess. The next experiment is to enter the water without splashing. Notice how much pressure on the sides you exert as you lower in. The frost would have been markedly disturbed.
• The police comments are purely conjecture and should be taken with a pinch of salt. There is NO evidence that Daniel fell in the water.
• There is only one fact and that Daniel is missing.
• Regrettably it is alleged locally that apparently the bins in the immediate area were allowed to be emptied, a lack luster door to door and ground search together with an unsatisfactory exit route search.
• While all searches of the area were locally organized by the public.
