A nice relaxing cup of tea?

I never cease to be amazed by the number of weird people that seem to be around.

Now we have news of a 75-year old grandmother, HELEN WASHINGTON, who shot her grandson after he rested his cup of tea on a wooden table in her home in Minnesota.

It seems that after the boy had placed his drink on the table his grandmother initially poured the tea away in a fit of anger, but when the boy had the effrontery to fetch himself another cup, she pulled out a .38 Special and shot him in the thigh!

Police rushed to the scene where Mrs Washington told officers that they had no right to intervene.

Well that didn’t go down well, and she was charged with second-degree assault with a dangerous weapon.

A judge has now ordered an evaluation to see if she is fit to stand trial.

The name and age of her grandson have not been released.

Extraordinary!

Mercifully Margaret Mills exhibited no signs of agitation when she enjoyed a cuppa, telling us all about a totally incompetent map maker from Ilford – one Henry Joist.

Dating from around 1651, were you to follow the directions on his maps, you would be very fortunate indeed if you ever arrived at your intended destination.

This is akin to some SAT NAVS today that proudly proclaim that, “You have arrived at your destination” whilst dumping you in a field of cows, miles from anywhere.

The only plus point is that if you could actually get hold of one of his creations, it would probably be worth a small fortune now!

Listen again here to what Margaret had to say about this worthy gentleman: –

 

See you again next week,
