'Let it all hang out'

Frances Leate, 40, is a writer from London.

I, for one, can't wait to ditch the socks and slip on my comfy flip-flops, whether I'm popping to Tesco for those all important lollies or catching some rays in the local park. And it must be the same sort of thing for men too. Why wouldn't they want to whip off their tops and let it all hang out on a warm day?

'THAT'S NOT MY BABY'

Lying in the hospital bed, my husband Michael had tears of happiness in his eyes as he showed me a photo on his phone. 'Here she is,' he said proudly.
