Manchesters newest gang member
 

I just hope they can get this dangerous person of the streets soon.

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

And this makes her a gang member why ? At that age it could have been some kind of mental illness that made her do it, not saying that makes it right, does seem strange though :shrug: But gang member, I think the title needs updating a bit.

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Quite. Purple jackets, eh? The streets of Manchester won't be safe until she's safely put in a nice beige cardie.

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

I bet the person giving the description was under 25..Anyone over 40 would be described as old.:)

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

sounds like the next script for the bill

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

That's the Old Bill, then? Or 'I Remember The Coronation Like It Was Yesterday, Dearie, Street'?

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Practically every single person out there is potentially "dangerous".
Mabey as alluded to in the 2nd post the old biddy has some form of mental illness etc?
Not suggesting for a sec that she should`nt be tracked down and dealt with accordingly,but ......."gang member":erm:

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Actually very logical.

At that age, it's a choice between food and heating - and the food aint that great. A ready meal from M&S being a monthly treat. Ten years for armed robbery. Free food and heat in prison - can see out your days in comfort. Or, if you managed to escape with a few grand and are never caught, free food and heat - can see out your days in comfort.

Win, win :shrug:

lol...
Plus she`d get a wee shot of a WII eh;)

I hope so, a knife will kill you whether the person holding it is 7 or 70.

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

One of the articles reported it as "small knife", so maybe a vegetable knife or spud peeler, as oppose to a foot long hunting knife, say. Looking on the positive side, and as you know, I always try to do this, it could have been a knitting needle - very nasty in the wrong place.

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Or... and im being crazy here... the title was a bit of fun!!! Based on the fact that every crime in Manchester is supposed to be gange related.

I thought you had put an ignore flags on my posts bopdude - I thought that was a great idea.

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Which really helps when you try and use the search option / feature :dozey:

Where did you get that idea from ?

You did, why ?

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Keep any arguments out of this thread please.

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Bless her, you don't know what was going through her head, someone metioned that she may have been suffering from some sort of menal illness, I hope when they catch her they give her some help instead of slamming her in a cell.

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

people aint too friendly on this site are they, haha.

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Am I the only one who thought of this:

Or a certain scottish drink's advert?

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

so why did she run when the alarms went off?

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Call me cynical, and I'm sure recent advances in joint replacements can do wonders for mobility, but I doubt she's up there with the likes of Owens. Probably figured that someone would catch up with her. Life huh - had she be laden down with tens-of-thousands, she would no doubt have been caught.

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Old people are not as helpless as they first appear - they might not be able to hear a word you say to them when you sit next to them on the sofa, but they can hear the 'ching' of a tea cup on a saucer from a good mile away and quickly request a nice brew... with a biscuit...

You need to give them more credit! :)

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Don't know about that. My Granddad could here the ching of a whisky bottle on a glass from four miles away...

Re: Manchesters newest gang member
 

Personally I would rather these old folk were out doing armed robberies than on the roads - They are a nightmare!
