I spent sleepless nights thinking up different themes for a Calendar Girls type calendar using our ladies and men members as models; I even had Andy Thompson and Greg Harlow, two ex-world champions taking part. We also have some top ...

For my 46th birthday I made myself very visable, I climbed into a giant nappy, attached myself to my husband and lauched myself off the fastest, longest and highest zipwire in the World, at sun city resort in South Africa, It was incredibly exhilarating and made me feel very alive.

A white v neck jumper and a big belt pulled so ...

When I've got the time and means, I'll be sitting down with a book for scribbling my ideas and letting pages take shape. They'll include photographs and momentos and I'll be able to express my individuality with text explaining situations where needed. I know my friends and family will recognise my style of writing and it's good to think that ...

Life on the streets of Saltley was never going to be normal. I realised this early on in life watching mum, face streaked with coal dust like a Brummie Mrs Jolson, marching down our road of terraces towards the bookies.She was after delivering a vital message to dad, who was a trifle mortified at the apparition that appeared at the ...
