News Round Up

by Patrick O'Connor

A 56 year old woman from Preston, Lancashire, has just completed an unusual challenge which has seen her visit every pub in Britain with the name of Red Lion.

The Daily Mail reports that Cathy Price has spent almost five years and nearly £16,000 in tracking down the 656 venues that share the UK's most common pub name.

STARTING all over again is 32 year old Sarah Thomson from Exeter who has woken up from a coma convinced she was a teenager and without any recollection of her husband or three children.

The Daily Express reports that Sarah suffered a burst blood clot in her head 13 years ago but when she finally regained consciousness she thought she was 19 again.
