MAY I say a very big thank-you to Asda Store at Monks Cross for all the kindness and care shown to me on Saturday, April 2, when I had my handbag stolen while I was shopping in the store. It was a huge shock for a 75 year old.

I would also like to say a very big thank-you to the couple who offered to pay for my shopping; it is very reassuring that there are nice people out there.

I would like to plead with whoever took my handbag to please return the two photos which were in my purse, as they are of great sentimental value to me and irreplaceable.
