Tabak was obsessed with violent sex and porn MURDER OF JOANNA YEATES Landscape architect Joanna Yeates, 25, disappeared on 17 December 2010, following a night out with colleagues. Her boyfriend was away for the weekend. Following a huge manhunt, Joanna’s frozen body was eventually discovered on a snowy roadside verge that Christmas morning. The murder investigation was one of the largest ever undertaken in the Bristol area, dominating the news. On 20 January her Dutch neighbour Vincent Tabak, 32, was arrested for murder. He was obsessed with violent sex and pornography. In October 2011, after being found guilty of strangling Joanna, Vincent Tabak was jailed for life, to serve a minimum of 20 years. MURDER OF BECKY WATTS In February 2015, schoolgirl Becky Watts, 16, vanished from the Bristol home…

I needed surgery – would I ever walk again..? I did the pregnancy test, then forgot all about it… Cantering around the paddock, I let my thoroughbred horse Yorkie stretch his legs. ‘Good boy,’ I smiled. It was September 2015 and Yorkie was an ex-racehorse we’d adopted at the equine rescue centre I’d helped set up. I’d ridden him before, but on the third lap, my foot slipped from the stirrup. I steadied myself, but it had spooked Yorkie and he bolted. ‘Whoa!’ I cried. I was thrown from the saddle and landed on my bum with a heavy thump. But as I tucked and rolled to not get trampled, pain tore through my entire body. Screaming in agony, I couldn’t breathe. The stable girls called an ambulance and rushed…

I’d started to think I would be fat forever I was in better shape than I had been in my 30s! As I sat down in front of the doctor, I could feel my heart starting to race. I waited while he looked up my blood-test results on his screen – and watched as his smile turned into a concerned frown. ‘You’re one point away from being diabetic,’ he told me. I tipped the scales at more than 20st, and diabetes runs in my family, so it wasn’t a huge surprise. But my heart still sank. The good news was that I wasn’t classed as diabetic – yet – and in my late 40s, I could do something about it. ‘Losing weight will make a massive difference,’ the GP…

Before we saw the GP, I suspected what was wrong Millie had been having a fit and Elmo had sensed it! Tucking in my youngest – Millie, 4 – I perched on her bed and watched her little eyes close. ‘Night, Mum, I love you,’ she said, drowsily. ‘I love you, too, sweetheart,’ I told her. Then suddenly, Millie sat bolt upright and smacked her lips together, looking dazed. It was all over in seconds and, before long, she was sleeping peacefully again. I didn’t really think much of it. Before long, though, something else strange happened. Me and my husband Stuart, 45, had taken Millie and our older children – Myles, 15, and Ellis, 12 – on a family camping trip when Millie had an accident in the…

What I loved The extra daylight and the dawn chorus (no, not from 'er next door, you daft beggars!). What hacked me off My addiction to 3-for-2s. Only just realised how I've stopped buying anything in singles…. I'm in multi-pack meltdown! There must be a support group out there. What made me laugh Reading somewhere that Nigel Farage may be the older woman's crumpet. Blimey. 'Fraid it's certainly not working for me… Still, each to their own, I suppose! Hope something tickles your fancy this week!…

Jolts of pain shot through me with every blow Desperate, Mum tried to pull him off me as the girls screamed. ‘Sean, please, not in front of the children,’ I begged him. Somehow, I managed to struggle free and ran past him. Stumbling across the hall, I raced to my neighbours’ flat and banged frantically on the door. ‘Please help!’ I sobbed. No answer. Within seconds, Sean was behind me, dragging me back inside by my hair. Throwing me down, he launched a frenzied attack, plunging the 13in knife into me again and again. Jolts of pain shot through me with every blow. ‘You think you are so special,’ he sneered. Then, as a final insult, he used the knife to hack away at my hair – which had always…

Hip hell Q I fell and hit my hip 14 weeks ago. My groin is still agony, even though lots of X-rays show nothing's broken. Elaine, 65 A The X-rays were important, as you can crack your hip bone without signs of damage. You could have a sprain due to torn muscles, or pressure on a nerve because of swelling. Recovery can be slow, but check with your GP if you're not better after six months. Bald fears Q My hair’s thinning on the top of my head and my specialist calls it female pattern hair loss (FPHL). Will I go bald?! Monika, 42 A Your hair might carry on thinning gradually, but it's unlikely you'll become bald. No-one's sure of the cause, though FPHL often seems to be inherited.…

She was jumpy,would freeze if a carer came in It was heartbreaking when my mum Betty Boylan, 78, had to be put in a care home. But we honestly thought it was best for everyone. Mum was chatty, kind and loved people. But, aged 73, she was diagnosed with early onset dementia. And then she became almost fully blind from macular degeneration. My dad Timothy, then also 73, looked after her as best he could, and I visited daily to give him a hand. Then, in September 2015, me and my husband Nigel, 55, were planning a trip to Antigua. ‘It’s not fair to leave Dad without any help,’ I said. So I did some research and moved Mum into Bupa’s Perry Locks Nursing Home in Birmingham, for respite care.…

Kidney saviour I loved the story of Simon, who donated one of his kidneys to his wife Nicola (9 February issue). What an incredible gift! Even though he wasn't a match for Nicola, the operation could still go ahead - it's amazing what doctors can do these days. I hope their story will encourage others to become organ donors, too. You could be giving someone a new lease of life one day. Helen Cameron, London In a tight spot… My neighbour’s joined a fitness class. After the first one, I asked how it went. ‘I puffed and panted, and wiggled and jiggled,’ she replied, ‘but by the time I’d got the leotard on, the class was almost over!’ Irene Emerson, Grimsby Support for all Earlier detection and new treatments are…

I knew Sean would never let me be the one to end things Heart pounding, I locked eyes with the handsome man standing beside me. This was it. ‘I do,’ I whispered, a grin spreading across my face. It was 1999, and I’d just tied the knot with Sean. It should’ve been the happiest day of my life. But glancing around the room, I felt a pang of regret. There were no friends and family all dressed up. Nobody to throw confetti or applaud as we shared our first kiss as man and wife. You see, our wedding was a complete secret. I’d met Michael Belcher – known by his middle name Sean – when I was 17 at the University of Miami, Florida, where I was studying. He was…

You couldn’t miss it… The large, red mark stretched right across my nose. ‘It’s just a birthmark,’ my mum Alfreda would tell me when I was a kid. That’s what she and the doctors believed it was. But, over the years, my nose would randomly bleed. And nothing Mum or my dad Tom did could stop it. It was so bad, I’d need blood transfusions at hospital. But the doctors couldn’t explain it, so I just got on with things. At school, catching people whispering and giggling behind my back, I went into my shell. Then, when I was 12, my gran saw a TV programme about a woman with an arteriovenous malformation (AVM) – a tangle of blood vessels that can cause haemorrhaging. ‘That sounds like your nosebleeds,’ Mum…

It felt natural to talk into a lens, even have a cry! The response to the video was incredible As I sat on the sofa stroking my growing bump, I wondered what it would be like when labour started. I knew it was time I started putting a birth plan together, but it all seemed so daunting. ‘I think I’d like a water birth,’ I said to my hubby Stephen, who’s known as Skinner. ‘Sounds good to me,’ he agreed. I even thought Skinner, 32, could join me in the birthing pool, so we could share the whole experience as a couple. After finding out I was pregnant, he’d starting vlogging as ‘Nomadi Daddy’ on YouTube and Facebook. We filmed lots of videos of our adventures while I was pregnant…

They told us she only had a 20 per cent chance of survival As the final credits rolled up, the lights in the cinema came on. My daughter Lily, then 6 months, was sleeping soundly on my lap. Me and my husband Rickie, 31, had taken her to the pictures with us. But as she awoke, she was shivering, and when I took her to the loo to change her nappy, she kept breathing out with a grunt. We took her to Watford General Hospital, but by then her temperature had peaked and she seemed sleepy. Doctors wanted a urine sample, while we waited, Lily had thrown up. She also had the runs, and as I changed her nappy, I saw three red spots on her back. A nurse said…

Tesco Cheddar Mash, 500g, £1.30 Soft-textured and creamy. The cheese flavour is not as strong as expected, but it's a sized generously pack. 7/ Aldi British Cheddar Mash, 450g, 95p We loved the soft and fluffy, home-made texture of this, mash, as well as its delicate cheese flavour. This will serve two as a side - or use it to top a fish pie. Sainsbury's TTD Rich & Creamy Barber's Cheddar Mash, 450g, £2 Super-smooth and creamy - a bit like a puree - this has a tangy cheese flavour that's a perfect match with bangers and onion gravy. Oreo Thins, £1.05 Thinner and crisper than the original cookies, these sophisticated little biccies come in a choice of vanilla and chocolate creme fillings.…

By the time Lily was 10, her room had become a shrine My daughter Lily was just 3 when she fell in love. Not with a handsome prince from a Disney film. Instead, she fell for a 2,000-year-old alien! It was summer 2005, and we’d just sat down with our pizzas, ready to watch telly as a family. That night’s viewing was the revamped Doctor Who , with Christopher Eccleston as the time-traveller. We loved the show, but for Lily it was life-changing. ‘It’s the best show in the world!’ she beamed to me and her dad Tom. He didn’t need convincing. Tom had loved Doctor Who since he was a boy. ‘I’d hold the pillow in front of my face if I got too scared!’ he revealed to Lily.…

He went into cardiac arrest 12 times in two months It felt like we were in a never-ending nightmare Tears sprung to my eyes as my toddler, Archie, took his first wobbly steps. ‘Clever boy!’ I cheered. Only 11 months, he was cruising through his milestones. Me and his dad Russell, 40, were so proud. At 14 months, Archie was saying ‘Momma’ and ‘Dadda’. And by May 2015, our family had grown even bigger... There was Archie, then 18 months, his big brother Lewis, then 7, and we’d recently had Oliver, then 10 weeks. ‘Let’s go out for the day,’ I said one Saturday morning. We treated us all to lunch in the local pub, then spent the afternoon playing in the park. But, back home that teatime, Archie just…

1 It's beautiful With a Medieval town full of stunning buildings, a palace and cobbled streets, this pretty, colourful city is compact and easy to get around. 2 Fabulous food Start the day with ‘fika' - coffee and pastries.

When there were no more texts, I started to worry… Just a few days earlier, I’d been sunning myself in Majorca with my girlfriends. But, instead of longing for the sandy beaches, I was glad to be home. ‘We’re having a princess day, Mummy,’ my youngest, Tianna, 4, said, spreading glitter across her big sister Brogan’s face. Brogan, 21, had been looking after Tianna while I was away. Brogan, my middle girl, still lived at home, and I loved having her around. She was a real ray of sunshine, into her crystals and healing. A free spirit, she’d wear flowers in her hair, which she’d dye all the colours of the rainbow. She always had a smile on her face, and was ready with a hug for whoever needed it.…

DAIRY ME! A Spanish man bought a tub of what he thought was powdered milkshake from his local supermarket - and found 250g of cocaine inside! That was snort what he was expecting… GOTTA BE KIDDING! Reports from Nigeria claim a woman has given birth to a goat! (Yeah, right…) A video shows a crowd gathering as the woman allegedly delivers the, er, kid, in a local community centre, after a two-year pregnancy. Baa-rmy! FORGET ME NOT! Travelodge has released a list of the strangest items left by guests in its hotel rooms in the past year - and they really are mad.
