And finally... our intrepid London Market reporter is dipping her toes into water to raise money for charity. Yvette Essen will be attempting to swim 100 lengths of a 25-metre swimming pool to raise cash for Macmillian Cancer Relief, Breakthrough Breast Cancer and The Prostate Cancer Charity.

To get in shape, the hack is on a strict diet of pasta and fruit for the BT Swimathon. More importantly she hasn't touched a drop of alcohol for a fortnight. Now that deserves admiration.To make a donation, please call 020 7618 3498.
