Men are from Mars eh? Well yes, you won't get any argument from us on that front. Sometimes it really does feel like they're from another planet. Between us, we've had a few and though we'd like to tell you that our combined decades of dating disasters and marriage mishaps have given us wisdom and insight into the secrets of understanding the opposite sex - the truth is, we still don't have a clue what makes them tick.

Sherrie remembers her date with Steve McQueen, Jane gushes about being reunited with her childhood sweetheart, Coleen shares her secrets for keeping the romance alive and Carol will talk about the time she was forced to draw a diagram to illustrate the finer points of pleasing a lady. . .
