Attended Watersheddings and Derker Schools, and sport of any nature was her favourite subject. Married her first boyfriend at 18, then literally, worked like mad in various factories, even barmaiding in the evenings to enable them to buy a new semi detached house, just 3 years later.Afterpassing her driving test, she was lucky enough to get what she considered a dream job, emptying televisions, and selling goods from the back of her van. This job lasted 15 years, and turned into a very profitable business,that was snatched away due to a serious accident.After bouncing back she bought a body building gym in rented premises in 1982 and turned it into a very large health center,with beauty salon, etc.
