Young folk aren't safe these days!

From the BBC.

Woman, 70, holds up post office


Police are hunting an armed robber aged up to 70 years old who held up a post office in Manchester.
The woman, believed to be aged between 65 and 70, entered the shop on Palatine Road in Northenden, on Thursday morning. She was armed with a knife and threatened the cashier demanding money. Staff activated the alarm and the woman fled empty handed. She is described as white, about 5ft 2in tall, with dark hair and a purple coat.

They should never have given them free bus passes. It allows them to travel to places they wouldn't normally be able to hobble too and terrorise us youngsters.

I am soooo sorry first reaction was to laugh, which of course is wrong but just such a shock to see a story that is not telling you how bad the youngsters are
