Our local post office was robbed at knife point this morning at 9.08. 2 people injured. Robbers got away on a white motor bike which was dumped at Stokeham on Notts. side of the Trent close to Rampton.

Sign of the times mate sign of the times, people want quick easy cash with zero graft. I hope their parents are proud of them.
 
Know what you mean mate. We grew up with the couple who own the post office and shop, hope they're both ok.

Hearing of s*** like this more and more. Knife crime is getting extremely worrying.
 
Yeah we lost a country PO a few years ago due to a robbery, no one else wanted to take it on

That's the second worry here, after hoping they're ok you hope it doesn't frighten them away from their livelihood.

If I was King for a day :mad: First on the list would be to bring back the death penalty for these social underclass maggots. Not interested wether it's a deterrent or not, they'd be gone and wouldn't cost us a fortune in prison only to continue on their crime spree once released.
 
The couple that ran our's were close to retirement and I think It played to the PO's closure program, telling us there were no takers.
 
Jill and Colin both ok. 27 year old arrested at Stokeham.

What scum bags, really makes me angry , makes you wonder what this world is coming too , something has got to be done other wise what will the world be like in 10 years time , it’s mad that these people get away with it .........
 
The offenders are likely to get a slap on the wrist and the PO staff will suffer and worry and be frightened for months and years while doing their job. There is no justice. Fed up with it. :(:mad:
 
Great news that they've got them, as you say no great consolation for the trauma that they went through
 
Public flogging would work wonders, plus a couple of weeks free labour from the criminal to fix the shop/house.
 
I think most people would have a fit if they knew how often POs got turned over.

They are increasingly playing the role of the ever shrinking bank network. So perhaps have more cash than they used to in a less secure environment.
