A COUPLE have been charged with smuggling £1million of cannabis from Thailand. 

Sian Warren, 34, and Daniel McDonald, 36, were stopped when they returned to Heathrow. 

National Crime Agency officers found four cases packed with more than 51kg of cannabis. 

The pair were charged with importing Class B drugs and appeared the following day at Uxbridge magistrates’ court. 

They have been bailed under curfew ahead of a plea hearing on June 26 at Isleworth crown court. 

The couple left Salford for a dream holiday to Bangkok last month. 

Sian works as an administrator for Daniel’s dad’s building business. 

Her dad, Tony, said: “Sian’s not brought anything back, definitely not. 

“She had her own suitcase with clothes in it.” 

The couple are the latest Brits to be arrested on suspicion of trying to import cannabis from Thailand into either Europe or the UK. 

Cameron Bradford, 21, from Knebworth, Herts, was detained at Munich Airport on April 21 as she tried to collect her luggage after cops discovered it was packed with drugs after arriving from Thailand. 

And Brit Bella May Culley, 18, sparked a massive international search operation in early May after she was reported missing while holidaying in Thailand. 

However, it was later revealed that the teen, from Billingham, County Durham, had been arrested 4,000 miles away on drug offences in Georgia. 

She was allegedly carrying 30 pounds (14kg) of cannabis into the ex-Soviet nation. 

BUSINESS behemoth Mike Ashley’s Frasers Group is weighing up a takeover of Revolution Beauty.

The budget make-up brand has been plagued by plunging sales and boardroom bust-ups.

Revolution told shareholders yesterday that the retail giant behind Sports Direct and Flannels “is one of a number of parties that is conducting due diligence” on the business.

It follows Revolution’s decision to put itself up for sale last month after an approach by an unnamed suitor.

Sales have plummeted by 26 per cent this year as a £32million credit line approaches its October deadline.

The company blamed a reduced product portfolio and weak performance in the US and online.

It has also faced leadership and accounting issues, including a dispute with its former boss and a tussle with shareholder Debenhams under its previous Boohoo Group name.

Frasers Group has been on a spree snapping up stakes in online retailers such as THG, which owns rival beauty brands Lookfantastic and Cult Beauty.

But Revolution said there was “no certainty” that any interest by Frasers “will result in a firm offer”.

WELCOME MAT

MATALAN is planning a major makeover, announcing a £25million investment to open new stores and revamp existing ones across the country.

The fashion and homeware giant said physical stores remain “at the centre” of its transformation plans.

It is set to open ten new and relocated stores this year, expanding in regions including London, Essex, Hampshire and Northern Ireland.

A GLUM TOTAL

FORMER NHS 111 urgent care provider Totally has gone into administration.

But it said a deal to sell its main divisions will see the “uninterrupted provision” of all its services.

The Derby business, which lost its NHS contract in February, appointed Ernst & Young after failing to find buyers for the entire firm.

Three divisions have been sold to rival PHL GROUP in a rescue deal.

£5BN PLAN FOR THAMES

THAMES WATER’S lenders have put forward a £5billion rescue plan.

Creditors including Aberdeen and Blackrock aim to overhaul £17billion of debts, including investing £3billion in new equity plus £2billion of funding.

The deal would write off several billion pounds of debt and be a “complete loss for existing shareholders”.

Bills would not rise by more than Ofwat has approved in the next five years.

The creditors want leniency on performance targets, otherwise warning “pollutions and customer service will likely worsen”.

WE are often drawn to supplements to “fix our health”.

But, unless we are deficient in certain nutrients, then lifestyle changes are more likely to bring about noticeable changes.

Most of us should get all the nutrients we need from eating a balanced diet.

But we sometimes need a little extra help.

For example, vegetarians and especially vegans should consider supplementing with vitamin B12, and possibly calcium, iron and zinc.

Irritable bowel syndrome patients might find a probiotic is helpful to alleviate symptoms, and people with sleep issues may want to try magnesium.

The only supplement the NHS recommends for all adults is vitamin D, which our bodies create in response to sufficient sunlight.

The advice is to take it between October and April, but some people are advised to take it all year round, including people who have dark skin and those who are not often outdoors, for example, if they are in a care home.

Here’s a selection of what readers have asked this week.

RESTLESS LEGS MISERY

Q) AS soon as I relax in bed, I get a crawling sensation under my skin in my legs.

Lately, it seems to be getting worse, affecting my arms. I am an 82-year-old lady and have suffered from restless legs syndrome for many years.

My GP first prescribed pramipexole, which didn’t help, then ropinirole, which doesn’t work on its own, so I have to take co-codamol.

I worry I will have to take these for the rest of my life. My doctor won’t increase the ropinirole because of the side-effects.

I’ve been told there is nothing else that can be done. I have tried exercising, a warm bath, a massage, but nothing helps.

A) Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a neurological disorder characterised by an irresistible urge to move the limbs accompanied by uncomfortable sensations.

While it most commonly affects only the legs, the arms are occasionally affected, too. Symptoms tend to be worse at night and this often affects sleep.

It’s not understood why people get it and there’s no known cure unless it’s linked to an underlying, reversible condition.

Iron deficiency or low iron levels can cause it, so it’s worth your GP checking these if they haven’t already.

It can also be caused by certain medications, including some anti-nausea drugs, antidepressants, antipsychotics and antihistamines – so again, if you take any other meds, it’s worth checking if there could be a link.

Ropinirole used to be recommended as a first-line treatment, but the guidelines have changed and now gabapentin (and similar drugs) are advised.

Some people are unable to take this due to potential interactions. Some people have side-effects, especially older adults.

So your GP might have opted away from this, but it is worth asking them. You can always download the NICE guidelines yourself or attach the link in an e-consult request for them to consider.

Just search “NICE” and “restless legs syndrome” and you’ll reach the right webpage.

It may also help if you reduce caffeine and alcohol, don’t smoke, sleep well and be physically active.

To relieve an attack, relaxation, stretching, walking or massage can help.

Q) FOR about a year, I have been dealing with a frozen shoulder.

My doctor said it was pointless having an X-ray, but I have had corticosteroid injections, which did nothing to ease the pain.

I am a 63-year-old type 2 diabetic, and I have also been having physiotherapy, which has noticeably improved my range of movement.

My physiotherapist is not entirely convinced that it IS a frozen shoulder, though, and has suggested it could potentially be a form of arthritis or another condition.

He has written to my doctor recommending that X-rays be carried out.

I have started experiencing upper back pain, too. I am unsure whether this is connected. How do I approach my doctor on this?

A) Frozen shoulder (adhesive capsulitis) is a condition that causes pain, stiffness and reduced range of movement of the shoulder joint.

The symptoms are caused by the formation of adhesive or scar tissue in the joint.

Studies indicate that people with diabetes may be two to four times more likely to develop frozen shoulder. Diagnosis is clinical, meaning it is based on the symptoms and examination findings rather than X-rays or scans.

The main diagnostic test is whether you can do passive external rotation of the shoulder. This means that the doctor supports the patient’s arm in a bent position (imagine holding a kettle) and tries to move the arm to the side.

Inability to do this movement is highly suggestive of frozen shoulder.

If an X-ray is obtained, it should demonstrate a normal shoulder joint.

Most patients get physiotherapy, which can be supplemented by steroid joint injections.

It usually resolves on its own over a year or two, although some individuals may experience longer recovery times.

Physios see frozen shoulder quite frequently, so if yours is experienced and believes that other causes should be considered, then your GP is likely to take that advice.

Rotator cuff injuries, bursitis, osteoarthritis and shoulder impingement are examples of conditions that can be mistaken for frozen shoulder due to overlapping symptoms.

‘My body has become my enemy’

Q) I AM a 63-year-old female who has always been healthy and active until having a mobility issue with my right leg for the last 13 years. It has led to foot drop.

It is easy to trip and fall. It was suggested I must have had a one-off viral attack which damaged an area of my spinal cord.

I am so angry and frustrated.

This has taken a huge toll on me mentally, and my body has responded by going into overdrive.

I am overwhelmed with tiredness, but cannot sleep, and have no appetite. I am unable to relax.

My body has become my enemy. Please could you advise, before I collapse?

A) It sounds like the “fight or flight” part of your nervous system may be in overdrive and also that you have a lot of negative thoughts and emotions surrounding what has happened to your body.

This statement, “my body has become my enemy”, is a clue that you are most likely to benefit from cognitive behavioural therapy (CBT), which is available on the NHS.

CBT could help you rebuild the relationship with your body.

Please don’t delay – self-refer on the NHS talking therapies webpage, or explore insurance or private options if these are available to you.

Regarding the foot drop, in addition to physio and orthotics (which help prevent tripping and dragging of the toes), you should ask about whether electrical nerve stimulation would be an option for you.

A device sends small electrical impulses to stimulate nerves that lift the foot and is sometimes used if the foot drop is caused by damage to the brain or spinal cord (eg from stroke or MS – multiple sclerosis).

Research is ongoing into using stem cells or nerve growth factors to regenerate damaged nerves that cause foot drop.

See if any trials are recruiting by asking your specialist team, exploring the NIHR Be Part of Research webpage, or by visiting nhs.uk/tests-and-treatments/clinical-trials.

LOVE Island is back for the summer on ITV2 and ITVX and one of its brand new contestants has already managed to annoy viewers.

Shakira Khan, 22, entered the villa first alongside Meg Moore, 25, and the two ladies wasted no time getting to know each other.

Trying to learn what they both did for a living, Shakira set about telling Megan that she was “too glamorous for a 9-5” and must do something more exciting for a job.

Meg quickly set her straight revealing she was in fact a payroll specialist, with Shakira squealing that she was a “corporate girlie”.

Why the comment might have sounded innocent to some, viewers at home were not impressed.

One user wrote: “not too glamorous for a 9-5, oh dear”. Another person asked: “what does “too glamorous to do a 9-5 even mean?”.

Someone else agreed, also wondering: “Too gorgeous to do a 9-5??? What does that mean?”

In a shock move, one singleton has already been booted out of the villa – and viewers are convinced they know who it is due to a big clue.

The girl was told to grab her case and go after the arrival of bombshell Antonia Laites – who will be known as Toni in the show.

In scenes yet to be aired, Toni – who is American – will make her dramatic entrance after all the islanders are coupled up.

She is told to get to know the boys before choosing one to couple up with – leaving his girl being handed a one-way ticket back to the UK.
