As much as I am not really a trend follower, well unless it includes the word Apple, I do feel that it would be very amiss of me not to mention this weeks big news story, Super Gran.

If any of you have missed the story (have you been living in a cave) this is the story of Ann Timson a lady in her 70 who foiled a robbery on a jewelry store.

Caught on video, this “Supa Gran” headed towards the gang who were trying to smash their way into the store using sledge hammers. Armed only with her hand bag she fearlessly fought of the robbers who took off, one assumes rather stunned by the whole experience. “I clobbered him with my shopping but he got away. The rest of them were still trying to smash and grab at the jewelry,” she told an interviewer.

The four suspects have since been arrested and charged but is the better punishment the ridicule they will now face having their defeat being all over the media and social networking platforms.

The store are meeting with her and wish to give her a reward but for my part I would like to nominate Ann Timson for the Supa Swap courage award, if there were such a thing
