Vandals smash windows
12:14pm Wednesday 26th March 2008
VANDALS smashed the windows of a business set up by two sisters in Colne just a week after it opened.
June Smith, 52, a driving instructor and Susan Kelly, 46, a training manager gave up their full time jobs to open Likkle Monkeys children's play centre. The sisters, from Clayton-le-Moors, spent £100,000 on the centre in Langroyd Road.
Two windows costing £160 were smashed between 9.50pm on Saturday night and 9am on Sunday, police said.
Sergeant John Fryer of Colne Police said: "It is disappointing when the business only recently opened.
"Anyone with information should contact the police on 01282 472485."

Something about pots and kettles comes to mind, but I can't quite place it...
