This weekend was not a good one for news. While North Korea gave us what John Stewart has helpfully named "The Last Thing We F@#king Need" in the form of a fresh missile test, Italy was hit with a powerful and horrific earthquake.
So when that's on the mind, it's nice to hear a glimmer of hope shining through. From the heart of the destruction, "A 98-year-old woman was pulled out alive in L'Aquila after being trapped for 30 hours, local media report. She spent the time crocheting." [BBC]
Where would we be without indomitable grandmothers?
