Supergran from UK hits stateside news

Not sure if anyone has seen this news story

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article ... -eBay.html

It basically a 71year old granny who took on 6 robbers armed with sledgehammers with nothing more than a handbag. Also happened to take place at the end of my street so there has been a fair few camera crews around over the last week.

This old gal defo deserves some credit for her bravery

It is the year 2005.
The iPhone doesn’t exist, “app” means a job form, and Facebook is still trapped in American dorm rooms. MSN Messenger pings, Myspace reigns, and everyone types with their thumbs on a BlackBerry.

Not that she looks like some weakling in the interviews I've seen, but Good on the old Girl!!

"Everyone has a hobby.Even people who say they don't still have one under another name.If we're sick,injured, we still go to it and get down to see how it is.If it needs something, we bring it,make sure the attention is perfect.It exercises our care and protection and gives us back philosophies.It's a living thing to us,and is the most perfect way to teach a young person how to be towards a living thing. It's something that should never be taken away."

Wow, that's pretty cool.

And I even remember the TV show from when I was a kid. Supergran had a bad ass trike with some big ass tires on it.

Old school battle-axe of a woman. Good on her.

It's safe to assume that I'm just taking the piss.
