She began training last September, and revealed how cycling has helped the pounds melt away. Revealing in total she had lost three stone in eight months, she told Good Morning Britain hosts Ranvir Singh and Robert Rinder: "Well, it's all, it's exercise. I mean, you know, it's exercise. "You know, I think anything that can help you, if you can so jacks or anything. "I think that's a good thing, because you know, anything that can get you moving.

The ambassador for the Hendy Foundation - the independent charity she is doing the bike ride for - wrote in her Woman's Weekly magazine column: "A couple of years ago, I was at a party with their chairperson Rebecca Hendy, and said, 'I really want to raise money by doing a bicycle ride along the south coast.' 5 Rosemary said at her heaviest she was 20 stone Credit: Peter Tarry - The Sunday Times "Rebecca was initially sceptical. Back then, although more mobile after a hip replacement operation, I was barely doing any exercise and weighed well over 20 stone, which I'm embarrassed to admit now. "My health had got so bad, I remember thinking, 'I'd better not walk down the street because I might not get back.' "I knew I had to do something, to pick myself up and get myself going. I was tired of being on an endless cycle of weight loss and weight gain. Any weight loss I ever achieved was never sustainable. Life was a constant fluctuation of up and down, which psychologically was very depressing. "Although I'm still big, I can happily say that I've lost more than three stone since embarking on the biggest challenge of my life - training for a 450-mile bike ride from Land's End to the White Cliffs of Dover. "It's been a hard slog - I've even become virtually teetotal - but I'm so proud of myself and feel I've been given a second chance at life." Rosemary added: "I'm 75 next January, and I've given myself the best-ever birthday present - my health!"

Best-selling hair growth products to buy in Australia: These are the 7 products shoppers swear by
Hair shedding every time you brush? Noticing more scalp than strands? You're not alone. Hair thinning is a very real issue for Aussies, and whether it's stress, hormones, or simply genetics, the effects can seriously dent your confidence. But there's good news: you don't have to just put up with it. We spoke to John Pulitano, co-owner and Creative Director of Headcase Hair, who's been treating thinning hair for decades. 'I see it every day,' he says. 'And trust me, with the right treatments, you can absolutely turn things around.' According to John, regular trims do make a difference. 'I've seen long-term clients who skip their appointments lose volume over time. But when they're consistent with their cuts, the hair stays healthier and fuller.' If your thinning is mild or just starting, there are also excellent at-home options, and we've rounded up the best. From scalp serums and LED tech to shampoo swaps and supplement support, here are seven of the most effective treatments you can use right now. 1. Hobe Labs Energizer Hair Follicle Stimulator, $25.77 at iHerb Affordable and effective, this herbal spray gives your scalp a real wake-up call. Packed with 10 herbs, jojoba, and panthenol, this scalp spray is a cult classic for a reason. Designed to stimulate sluggish follicles and promote new growth, it's perfect for early signs of thinning. Bonus: it smells fresh and won't weigh your hair down. 2. CurrentBody LED Hair Growth Helmet, $1,159.99 at CurrentBody Yes, it's pricey, but this sci-fi-looking helmet actually works. Powered by red light therapy, this helmet targets DHT, boosts circulation, and keeps follicles in their growth phase. Just 10 minutes a day can lead to noticeably thicker, stronger hair in as little as 16 weeks. Ideal for those serious about long-term hair health. Always read the label and follow the directions for use. 3. Bondi Boost Anti-Thinning Trio, $91 at BondiBoost A natural haircare system your scalp will love. This Aussie-made shampoo, conditioner and serum trio is rich in Rosemary, Saw Palmetto and Nettle Leaf – known to stimulate growth and calm inflammation. It's also f ree from nasties like sulphates and silicones. Consider it your new self-care ritual. 4. Robe Haircare The Tonic, $69.99 at Adore Beauty The sleek scalp serum that's secretly multitasking. Fragrance-free and featherlight, this serum gets right down to the follicle to wake up growth. It also helps tackle early greys and won't mess with colour-treated or keratin-smoothed hair. If your scalp's been feeling neglected, this is your hero product. 5. The Ordinary Multi-Peptide Serum for Hair Density, $36.30 at Adore Beauty The cult skincare brand's hidden gem for hair. This leave-in serum is loaded with powerful peptides like Redensyl and Procapil to encourage denser, fuller hair over time. It's easy to apply, not greasy, and gives a nice cooling tingle. And yes, it's affordable too. 6. Patricks Plus Set Anti-Hair Loss Shampoo and Conditioner, $190 at PATRICKS Looks like a luxury set, works like a prescription. This shampoo and conditioner duo doesn't mess around – it's got DHT-blockers, peptides, and biotin all in one. Great for men and women dealing with serious shedding, it's a clinical-level treatment disguised as a bougie bathroom upgrade. 7. Coco & Eve Tripeptide Hair Density Serum, $50 at Coco & Eve TikTok's favourite hair serum for a reason. Formulated with three clinically backed peptides, this serum tackles thinning by strengthening the scalp and reducing fall-out. It's lightweight, smells lush, and works well with other products in your routine. Some users see results in just 10 days. So, what else can you do? Wash more often: Oily buildup on the scalp can clog pores and worsen thinning. Take supplements: Brands like AEDE (Australian-made) support hair health from the inside out. Get professional advice: If hair loss is sudden or severe, book in with a trichologist or dermatologist. Don't delay: As John says, 'The sooner you start treatment, the better the result.' Hair loss isn't something you need to suffer through quietly. With today's options, both natural and high-tech, there is a way forward.

Incredible £1.9m country estate in the heart of the Cairngorms National Park hits the market
A stunning country home in the heart of the Cairngorms has hit the market. Broomhill House is an imposing private Arts and Crafts house, constructed of solid granite, located south of Grantown-on-Spey. It has a storied history, having been built for Sir Alfred Booth of Liverpool, best known for his role as chairman of the Cunard Line. RMS Carpathia – a Cunard Line liner – was first on the scene to rescue survivors of the RMS Titanic in 1912. Broomhill House was completed in 1918 before being sold to the Aspen family in 1926 for their six-year-old pneumonia-stricken daughter Rosemary to live in. The Aspen family fled to the Moray countryside at the outbreak of WWII. The fresh air must have been good for Rosemary, who, despite having pneumonia, lived in Broomhill House for 85 years. The house is extensive, with more than 7,500 square feet of space, as well as a car port and indoor courtyard. The house was formerly for sale with the price being revealed on application. It is now listed with Fine & Country for £1.9 million. Entering the house via a door next to the car port, there is a cloakroom with toilet and study to the right. Along the hallway is the drawing room, featuring a huge bay window, which connects to the sitting room. A standout feature is the huge log-burning fireplace and dark wooden ceiling beams. The sitting room leads through to the covered verandah as well as the garden room. Further down the hallway is the formal dining room, pantry and store room. To the left is the kitchen, with larder and utility room connected. On the other side of the hall is a ground-floor bedroom and separate shower room. Disconnected from the rest of the house is a dairy and wine store room on the opposite side of the car port. While still connected to the main house, there is a separate annexe area for guests/visitors, and it is currently used as a holiday rental. It consists of a living room, dining room, kitchen, ground-floor bedroom and bathroom. There are two additional bedrooms upstairs. The first floor of the main house has seven double bedrooms, with three bathrooms and a linen room. There is also a small roof terrace, which overlooks the courtyard, accessed via one of the bedrooms. In addition to the bedrooms is one of the highlights of the house – the music room. The Aspen family commissioned the highly acclaimed architect Sir Basil Spence to extend the house, creating the barrel-vaulted music room. The courtyard encloses several store rooms, two toilets, as well as a separate Coach House. There is a large Siberian larch multi-functional building, which was built in 2016 for garden storage. Broomhill House is approached by a sweeping private drive through a quiet wooded area, with ample parking. The mature gardens are around six acres, with expansive lawns and magnificent views of the River Spey and its valley. These extend all the way to the Cairngorm Mountains. There is also the former lawn tennis court with its thatched pavilion. The house and gardens are surrounded by mature trees, which extend into ancient Caledonian pine forest to the rear of the house.
