Melissa, 64 I have insecurities about my own body, so sex is not as straightforwardly pleasurable for me Don and I love routine. We have had a pre-dinner drink at the exact same time – 6.20pm – almost every night of our 40-year marriage. Sex is also scheduled: we do it once every three days. I’ve made a playlist called Sexy, which I put on to set the mood. The songs, like our sex positions, rarely vary. We might start with a little foreplay, to the tune of Etta James’s I Just Want to Make Love to You, and finish…

second test: v Australia in Perth 201318 and 120, 1-63 & 2-82 (Australia won by 150 points)You don’t have to win all the time to prove you’re a winner. England were thrashed 5-0 in Australia, smashing one of their greatest teams to pieces, but there was one exciting positive: it was Ben Stokes’ maiden Test series. While most of his elders were breaking down, Stokes, with his fiery red hair and energy to the point of cliché, stepped into Test cricket’s hottest kitchen and immediately lit some more fires. At first, Australia dismissed him as just another massacred Pom. Stokes…

Harriet’s teenage sons were so sociable as small children that she wasn’t prepared for what she calls the “hermit phase”. Around the age of 13 or 14, both boys started holing up in their bedrooms. Although they were avidly gaming and chatting with their friends online, real-world socialising seemed to fade away.“They weren’t at all interested in seeing their friends; they just wanted to be left alone. It’s as if something clicked,” says Harriet (not her real name), a hospice manager living in a small northern town. Though she tried not to make an issue of it, their withdrawal bothered…

Stephen ColbertThe late-night host recapped oral arguments in a U.S. Supreme Court case involving whether Colorado can invoke the Constitution’s insurrection clause to remove Donald Trump from the ballot. “This is a historic, landmark case,” Stephen Colbert said on The Late Show on Thursday. In fact, it’s such a big deal that people line up hours in advance just to get a seat in the viewing gallery. “Although there are obviously people lining up to buy the Apple Vision Pro,” Colbert quipped.Defending Trump is former Texas Deputy Attorney General Jonathan Mitchell, known as a tough litigator.

A young Louisiana dentist is facing the likely loss of one of her eyes after a former patient went into her office and stabbed her.The attack which targeted Dr Katherine ‘Katie’ Tran and two of her colleagues – while leading to the arrest of Sharon Stewart – is the latest chilling reminder that US healthcare professionals are suffering more workplace violence injuries than those in any other industry, including law enforcement, as the Associated Press reported last year.Papers filed by local police in New Orleans’s state criminal courthouse accuse Stewart of going to Tran’s Louisiana dental center office on 7…
