So tragic Ann, seems to be everyday now you hear of this. But you cut funding for the police and rising crime is the result. Well written and good luck. Tom

Yes that is what I was thinking about when I wrote it Jan. They seem to be happening on a daily basis, especially in London - almost an epidemic! Very scary and very sad too. Kindest thoughts Ann xx
