Then, snippets of each were merged to form the final, illustrated story showing the value of health and fitness in young people and their families.Children - did you know that?...• some children put on too much weight when they are quite young• extra weight can make children unhealthy and unfit• children who are overweight might start to lose confidence and stop playing with other children• some children might become sad if they lose confidence due to being overweightWould you like to help these children by telling them about health and fitness?

Mais rester assis au même endroit les ennuyait.Cônerad dit « Tu te souviens, quand on était couverts de poussière de lune, puis on s'en est débarrassés en se balançant d'un côté a l'autre ? Peut-être, si on essayait ça, on pourrait se déplacer et aller ailleurs. »Cônerad grimaça alors qu'il essayait de bouger.« Bonjour, je m'appelle Cône-Vera », dit le Cône à côté de Cônestance.« Si vous soulevez deux coins de vos bases et vous déplacez de côté vous pouvez balembler. » Cône-Vera montra aux deux amis comment faire.« Balembler ? » demanda Cônerad.« Oui, c'est ce que font les Cônes quand ils bougent.

Dawn was breaking and casting a warm glow. A large cargo ship was ploughing its way across the heaving sea and turned to come towards the port.

In this sequel to the acclaimed novel and Wishing-Shelf Awards finalist, The Sixth Pillar, we again follow the exploits of former SAS officer Rory Calderwood, as he tries to rebuild his life following his time on the North Sea Gas rig. He has now relocated to a seemingly more tranquil area, but an act of extreme bravery leads to a chance meeting with the managing director of a company involved in making weaponry. Rory is soon hired as a security consultant, his key role, to protect them from industrial espionage. The company's latest invention, under the code-name 'Hades', will change modern warfare and there are numerous countries and agencies anxious to get their hands on the plans. What follows is a dramatic account of Calderwood's attempt to protect his employers, the story weaving from the backstreets of Birmingham to the warring factions of the Middle East. Then there is Natalie, the mysterious international lawyer from Estonia recently employed by the company; where does she fit in, in all the mayhem? Is she really what she seems or a smokescreen? Whatever you do, do not miss the exciting climax that will have readers flipping the pages to reach the conclusion.

John Howard was a good Catholic boy brought up in post-war Lancashire, who became more turned on by gilt than by guilt. Sacred Heart statues and a wall-mounted crucifix, along with plans for the priesthood, were replaced by Marc Bolan posters, miming to 'Metal Guru' in front of a full-length mirror and dreams of pop stardom.As Glam Rock stomped into millions of teenage bedrooms, John left home for London, and was quickly signed to CBS Records, making his debut album at Abbey Road studios, and enjoying the hedonistic pleasures of a fully gay-liberated city.He appeared on TV and rubbed shoulders with stars like Johnny Mathis and David Essex, wrote and recorded the theme song for the William Holden/Peter Fonda movie, Open Season, and launched his album with a concert at The Purcell Room on the South Bank.Meanwhile, he was attacked with a knife by his first lover; beaten up by an East End crook boyfriend; narrowly escaped being gang-raped in Malta, and was rescued from being abducted by a serial killer cab driver in New York.Everything finally came to a crashing halt when, at the age of twenty-three, he broke his back jumping from his apartment window, escaping from his flatmates' sex attacker.A potentially glittering career, and an often perilous sex life, were all put on hold as John lay in a hospital bed unsure if he would walk again.

It is no exaggeration to say that we were tortured; physically, mentally, emotionally and sexually. It took decades for me to piece together the fragments of my life at a children's home run by the Catholic Church, to pull hazy images out of the shadows of my mind and bring them into sharp focus. Slowly, painfully, I put the puzzle back together.
