Maybe you should check her purse to see if she has any identification, like pension book or diary or oyster card or credit card? Poor thing must be lost

Maybe she doesnt speak english and needs and interpreter? You should check to see if she has a medic alert bracelet or tattoo? Maybe she wandered off from a nearby care home. I knew this old man once who did just that and was found wandering 17 miles from his house. He must have got a bus or something. If I were you I would draw a radius from the point that she was found for say 20 miles and then check all the care homes. Can you not put her on crimewatch or local news?

Your comments are unintelligible, but you'll have to look that up as you won't know what it means.

Can Mr Khalid, presumably alias bartok, just give it a rest? There aren't many platforms where local people can exchange views. To modify an old phrase, Get a Blog!

Is this your exclusive view page? I find his comments quite funny. Anyway my point here is that this lady must be known to someone local. It is a sad state of affairs that such a person can just have been walking around unnoticed?

Dear Frank,
It's certainly not my exclusive view page, but a really valuable forum to hear what local people are thinking. That's why all this clutter gets irritating: if only it was funnier!
As for this poor lady, I agree that what's frightening is that nobody admits to having missed her: has she been dumped by someone who's come to the end of their tether caring for her?

I have a blog, if anyone is interested. Mr Khalid has not written anything on it yet, I'm afraid, but he would be welcome to visit.
I'm not clear they this lady can't be asked to write down who she is.
