BABY Morgan Walker had an amazing escape after a freak gust of wind catapulted her pram 20 yards and slammed it into a garden fence.

The nine-week-old suffered nothing more than a bump on her head in the drama which came during the 50mph gales which left a trail of damage across Barnsley this week.

Morgan’s spectacular escape was witnessed by mum, Claire, who had only left the pram — with its brakes on — outside the door of a friend’s house for a matter of seconds.

Claire, 25, of Gerald Place, Kendray, said her baby was lucky to have escaped horrific injuries.

“I only went inside the house to get a drink of water and when I left the pram, there was no wind. In fact it was quite calm and Morgan was sleeping,” she said.

“But as I came back out, a gust of wind just came from nowhere and swept the pram out of my grasp.

“I chased after it to try to grab hold of it but it was being blown along so fast there was nothing I could do.

“It blew it all the way down the path before smashing into the fence at the bottom of the garden and finally coming to a halt.

“I was certain that Morgan would have been badly injured and was so relieved when I found that she was OK.”

A DEVIL of a row is brewing over the name of a new tattoo shop which locals have branded as tasteless and offensive.

Residents in the Pitt Street area have complained to the police and to the town hall about the name of the shop Devil Bitch which stands close to four churches.

They say that because the shop is situated in a residential area, the owners should have chosen a more appropriate name.

A town hall spokesman said there had been several complaints about the name but admitted there was nothing they could do.

Business partners Sean Broadhurst and Dean Gill defended the choice of name and insisted they never intended to offend anyone.

“We chose the name because it was different and we wanted to stand out from the rest. Some people may consider it is inappropriate in a residential area but the expense of changing it would be enough to put us out of business.”

HUNDREDS of nudists will be descending on Barnsley tomorrow — and they’re inviting brave locals to join them.

The Coast and Country Naturist Club has booked a night of nudism at the Metrodome and member Alan Marshall is hoping to turn Barnsley into a Mecca for the baring-all brigade.

For the less brave, clothes are an option people can even turn up in their swimming costumes and strip off later.
