Robbers tied up woman in her home

TWO masked robbers left a terrified woman tied to a chair as they made off with cash she had saved for a trip to Australia.

Barry Hunter, 22, and Arran Adey, 26, had spied on Eilidh Carr from the garden of her Edinburgh home before the midnight break-in, the High Court in Edinburgh heard.

They told her she was a silly lassie who should lock her windows.
