Shop staff refuse to sell whisky to great-grandmother, 92, because she couldn't prove she was over 18

A great-grandmother blasted shop staff today after they refused to sell her alcohol at the age of 92, because she had no ID to prove she was over 18 as she couldnt prove herself that she is above 18 years old.her name is Diane Taylor
she was stunned to be asked for proof of age when she asked for a bottle of whisky from her local One Stop Shop in Harlow, Essex as she couldnot provide her driving license as well as passport.hence she was refused to sell her alcohol.
the great-grandmother-of-three produced her over-60s bus pass,   an OAP card and even her pacemaker certificate, but was still turned away because she could not provide a passport or driving license
She said: "I asked the girl behind the counter to repeat herself three times, I just couldn't believe what I was hearing, I thought it was a joke.

she said "I can understand shops being strict with all the youngsters buying booze but surely there's a difference between a 92-year-old and someone of 18.

"I ended up storming out in indignation.  It is just ridiculous to ask someone of my age to prove they are an adult, I find it offensive.

she said "I have never been asked for ID before in my life but then I turned 18 in 1937."

Diane was on her my home from a check-up with her doctor when she went to buy a bottle of whisky for her son from the One Stop Shop in Harlow

did neil armstrong landed on the moon?

Did Neil Armstrong really land on moon?? If you say yes....Then read it THE PHOTOGRAPHIC EVIDENCE Issue 1 : Since the Moon has only one light source, the Sun, the shadows must be in line. But in this cases, it looks as if there are multiple light sources in moon, which is not possible Issue 2: The foreground of many images of the astronauts on the Moon are filled in with light, while the shadows remain absolutely black, again proving that there are multiple light sources. Issue 3 : There are no stars in the background from pictures taken on the Moon. Issue 4 :  In some images, a huge light source can be seen reflected in the astronaut's visors. This has to be a very bright, nearby source. There is no possibility of external light source in moon. Issue 5: How could NASA take TV images of the LM ascending on Apollo 15, 16, and 17 if there was no one on the Lunar surface to man the camera? Issue 6  : There can't be any pictures taken on the Moon because th...

Mystery condition makes woman age 50 years in just a few days Doctors have been left baffled by a strange condition which saw a woman of 23 age 50 years in a matter of days. Vietnamese woman Nguyen Thi Phuong now looks like a septugenarian after the rapid aging affliction took hold following an allergic reaction to seafood. Her sad story began in 2008, when her youthful beauty began to fade over the course of just a few days, leaving her with sagging, wrinkled skin all over her face and body. Until now she has been forced to wear a mask in public to hide her appearance from prying eyes, but now doctors are attempting to establish what caused her sudden and horrifying aging. Her husband, carpenter Nguyen Thanh Tuyen says his love for his once beautiful wife has not faded while Phuong, now 26, says her condition has only worsened since she was first struck with the condition. The couple, from the Mekong Delta province of Ben Tre, in Vietnam, have agreed to talk to the media for the ...

T. REX TEENS PACKED ON THE POUNDS

Image
Johnny Cash  might have said, life wasn't easy for a dinosaur named SUE. She grew up quick and she grew up mean, packing on nearly 4000 pounds a year as a teenager. "We estimate they [Tyrannosaurs] grew as fast as 3,950 pounds per year (1790 kg) during the teenage period of growth, which is more than twice the previous estimate," said John R. Hutchinson of The Royal Veterinary College, London in a press release. Modeling the teenage growth spurts of an ancient mega-predator was made possible by comparing computer models of smaller, younger Tyrannosaurs with those of full grown adults, including the tyrant lizard queen, SUE, the largest  T. rex  skeleton yet discovered. The new models also found that the 42 foot-long SUE may have been much heavier than earlier estimates. She tipped the scales at approximately 9 tons, according to the computer model. "We knew she was big but the 30 percent increase in her weight was unexpected," said co-author Peter Makovicky, c...
