Sarah was born in the midlands where she stayed until she left school. Next stop was Newcastle upon Tyne where she studied Psychology with a sprinkling of Archaeology and Geology - three years later she was qualified to dig up old rocks and psychoanalyse them - the perfect prerequisite to joining the Navy. However the life of a communications WRN soon became dull, about as interesting as flogging shoes in Ilkeston Co-op, which funnily enough is exactly what she did next.
When brief flirtations with Dolphin Showers and Instaflow Showers left her with a minus salary and a tax bill she settled on three years with the Nottingham Evening Post selling advertising. On leaving the 'Post' she became a Sales Rep and Sales Trainer with Rothmans UK Ltd, moved down south and the rest is history.
Musically she plays sax (with a smattering of keyboards but not at the same time otherwise she would be a millionaire by now) and spent 5 years as a backing singer in a friends' band.
