PRECAUTIONS FOR WOMEN

Just in case, especially now, during the frenzy of the season. We can now add to the list of victims the retired 77-year-old TCU professor from Fort Worth whose body was found last week in Oklahoma — and the 11-year-old in Sarasota. Because of these recent abductions in daylight hours, refresh yourself of these things to do in an emergency situation.

Saint Patrick’s Island Could Be Yours For the Taking and only a mere £895,000. Hurry, hurry, hurry, as this one won’t last! Yes, the tiny island where Saint Patrick was shipwrecked is on the market. The island made history 1,500 years ago when the Irish patron saint was stranded on Ynys Badrig, off the north-east coast of Anglesey, off north Wales. He then swam a treacherous one mile to Anglesey and lived in a cave before building the famous church of Saint Llanbadrig.
Since the Saint’s days the island - also known as Middle Mouse - has been much improved, adding additional land to its holding to now be a 160-acre estate. So not only do you get the island, but the rugged terrain now has a six-bedroom country house, the ruins of a clay works, and a private beach. Real estate agent Elfyn Hughes, of Beresford Adams, said: “It is real one-off“, in case anyone knows what that means.
