2009
This was the year of my divorce coming through, my 50th birthday and my move out of London to St Leonards on Sea. My 50th I celebrated by inviting 25 of my best female friends for supper, which was cooked by my dear friend Jacqui Pickles.

Mike Thorne my wonderful producer friend and his wife Leila leant me their London apartment in Notting Hill Gate in which to hold the party and I had such a wonderful evening and I felt so loved! Earlier that day Jacqui had booked me into her hairdressers to have my hair cut short and I came out feeling and looking like a new woman!

A few weeks later having moved to the seaside (I was living just across the road to the sea) and living 5 minutes walk from my best friend Angie and her partner Len, I found myself with the band at The Blue Note in Milan to launch the 'Where It Hurts ' album in Italy. Dominic, Tony, Henry and Martyn.  A matter of days later I was singing at the 606 (one of our favorite venues) and I met the man I hope to spend the rest of my days with. 'Where It Hurts' had us touring all over Europe and the UK and had great reviews.
