My wife no longer turns me on as I don’t find her attractive. We’ve been married for 28 years and are now in our 50s. I’m not a strapping young man but I’ve kept fit and exercise daily while my wife has let herself go. My social club of which she’s a member, has a state-of-the-art gym, but she refuses to join, even though she’s always taking diet pills.   We used to have an excellent love life, but her appearance now puts me off and I can only get aroused by picturing younger girls I’d slept with. I still love my wife and everything else in our life is good.  The three children of the marriage are well turned out, so what can I do to make her take more interest in her looks? Dan, by e-mail DearDan, It’s obvious that in spite of the young women you’ve slept with, you appreciate the fact that you and your wife have built so much together that it’s worth trying to find a workable solution.  It’s clear that you value physical fitness highly, while it isn’t as importan...

MUNICH –   Sometimes, it's hard to focus on a soccer game. Borussia Dortmund players had to, though, less than 24 hours after a bomb attack on their team bus. And they will have to do so again on Saturday, when Eintracht Frankfurt visits in the Bundesliga. Dortmund midfielder Nuri Sahin made it clear that his thoughts were far from the field in the rescheduled Champions League quarterfinal match against Monaco on Wednesday - a game Dortmund lost 3-2 after an uncharacteristically hesitant start. "Until I was on the pitch in the second half, I didn't think about football, to be honest. Because last night I didn't realize what happened, and when I was at home and my wife and my son were waiting in front of the door, there I felt how lucky we were," the visibly shaken Sahin told former Norway international Jan Aage Fjortoft, now a journalist. "I know football is very important. We love football. We suffer with football. We love football. I know we ear...

Davido  is still talking about his Sony Music deal and how he had to renegotiate a new creative agreement. The singer signed to Sony Music Entertainment in January 2016, and has endured a fractious relationship with the major label due to creative control issues.

I made these Marshmallows with Salted Lime Sugar for a dinner party two weeks ago and from the feedback I got they were the hit of the evening, so I am very pleased to share the recipe here. They formed part of a “forest forage” I created in front of the guests as the dessert finale. We cleared the dining table and asked the guests to stand while serving them a Passion Fruit Champagne  (last week’s recipe) as a palate cleansing sorbet. I proceeded to cover the entire table with the cuttings of 5 fresh herbs, artimisia; salvia; rosemary; lavender and rose geranium to resemble a forest floor while spraying rose geranium extract into the air. I then placed various desserts on the table. A classic french honey nougat, chocolate truffles dusted with homemade beetroot powder, frozen strawberries injected with a berry grappa, these marshmallows and Lebanese almond shortbread ( Lawziyeh ) which I discovered on a trip to  Beirut  two years ago. In the middle of the tabl...
