Growing pains (at 32)
Article Abstract:
GQ editor James Brown is rather surprised that he has survived to the age of 32, as he had always expected to live a very full life and die young. He is now attempting to adopt a more mature approach, which includes giving up alcohol and drugs. He has always been an emotional person, but in the past has tried very hard to hide his emotions. He first came to public attention through the creation of Loaded magazine in 1994. This magazine was only expected to sell around 40,000 copies a month, but sales have actually reached almost 500,000 copies a month.

Prof Parsons, in a class apart
Article Abstract:
Class is about where you have come from, rather than who you are now, according to journalist, columnist and broadcaster Tony Parsons, who frequently makes reference to his working class origins. He feels that the sense of community that used to characterize the working class in the UK has now vanished. Indeed, he even goes as far as to refer to the working class as peasants. He has seen mixed fortunes in his career, but now rates himself quite highly as a journalist.

God's gift to mothers ... that's the Prof
Article Abstract:
Creating babies brings great happiness, according to fertility expert Professor Ian Craft, who runs the private London Gynaecology and Fertility Centre. He feels that he treats his patients as individuals and that he is both sensitive and compassionate. He is very keen to make his patients' dreams a reality, and works with great energy, doing many things at once. His clinic mainly works with older women, as the National Health Service will not treat women over 37.
