About this deal

I explored the whole house again, all ten rooms – four bedrooms, front sitting room, dining room, kitchen, utility room, two bathrooms, plus three WCs. Hunter Davies is a prolific author, journalist and broadcaster who has written for Punch, the New Statesman, Guardian and Sunday Times.

I had rows like this with my wife, especially in the early days; and I am sure Claire had them with her past boyfriends. I also do a football column in the New Statesman, a column about love in old age for Saga magazine and also a column in Cumbria Life. Despite Hunter’s late arrival – he’d gone to Claridge’s instead of the Connaught, and poor Claire was ‘hysterical’ – the interview was brilliant, once he’d got Jack ‘to remove his stupid Ray-Bans’.Gogglebox star Pat Webb dies aged 75 following a 'long illness' as show veteran Stephen pays tribute to his. Before that, his first marital home with novelist Margaret Forster was in the Vale of Health, and over six decades the author and journalist has visited the Heath every day, walking, swimming, playing football, and raising three children.

Hunter believes the Island will only be the second place in the UK (after the Lake District) to hold an area book awards and he has lined up two well-known authors, Joanna Trollope and Cowes's own Alan Titchmarsh, to join him on the judging panel. Amazing that the Home Office allowed a gossip columnist to interview him, considering that Parkhurst was housing around that time one of the Krays (Reggie) and the Great Train Robbers. For last three years, I have had a lady friend and we decided to have a holiday home on the Isle of Wight.On this particular bus journey, we were heading for Bembridge, at the easternmost point of the island. The Isle of Wight will be only the second region in the whole of the UK with its own regional book awards. But just as quickly they faded and after a few days, I forgot she had ever thought or said such things. Sandown's Wildheart Animal Sanctuary has unveiled its new Crayfish Conservation Centre, which will house the first ex-situ population of native, White-clawed Crayfish on the Isle of Wight.

He said: “My wife died six years ago and, for the last three or four years, I have had a regular girlfriend. Ryan Gosling shrugs off Barbie Oscars drama with loving kiss from daughter and support from wife Eva Mendes.I was hooked on eating Sainsbury's cooking Chorizo at 2am: BRYONY GORDON was addicted to drugs and alcohol. We wanted to see our respective houses, check if our lodgers had trashed them, but most of all we wanted to see our dear families. Claire often repeats what her mother often repeated to her, that there are two main reasons couples have rows — money and sex. I began the Lake District Book Awards 38 years ago - and they are still going strong, with sponsors queuing up.

His dad was an RAF clerk, and in 1940 five-year-old Hunter and his family were uprooted from Scotland to Carlisle. My wife had died seven years earlier, after 55 years of marriage, and for thirty years we had had a home in Lakeland, near where we were both brought up. I enjoyed the descriptions of the Isle of Wight as it's a place I don't know at all but there were too. I remember, when we bought our London house in 1963, Margaret and I ripped out all the fireplaces because we were putting in central heating. The old dishwasher had been integrated – don't ask me what that means – so a handyman had to be found to do some magic on the woodwork before the new one could be installed.After about a year on my own, I began to feel lonely: having to cook for myself and sleep on my own. Weak, distracted Biden has let Iran's mullahs get away with murder - and now risks an unholy war: ANDREW.
