On a cosmetics production line. I walked out after half a day.
Clearing up someone’s sick – it was on police duty.

Having someone to come in every day and tidy my house.
On my wedding day, 21 July 2018. Mark and I had been together for 17 years but, having got through breast cancer treatment, we decided we’d finally get married.
