Vagina Monologues
Lynda Bryans writes about one of the most difficult choices she has ever had to make - whether to take part in the Northern Ireland tour of ‘The Vagina Monologues’. It deals with issues that are unique to women, and the proceeds will go to groups whose vision is to see an end to violence against women.
KING OF COOL Gareth Stewart
The arrival of identical twin boys has been a mixture of both emotions and a massive lifestyle change for the Cool FM DJ...
He tells us how he first got into music, among other things. 'I had an interest in all sorts of music from a very early age and played a number of instruments when I was at school. When I was growing up, I used to tape the Top 40 and listened to the radio at home rather than watch TV. I persuaded my parents to buy me some DJ equipment when I was 14 which resulted in my first mobile disco.'
