A woman who set off on a six-mile trip to the shops got lost in fog and was only found 8 hours away some 50 miles away from her home.

Sheila Fitzgerald, 82, had decided to drive from her home in St Helens to Ormskirk in her Nissan Micra. After completing her shopping, Fitzgerald then took a wrong turn heading for home and ended up travelling in completely the opposite direction.
