    Sunday Mirror -- not even fit for toilet paper

    GIVE IT A REST, SARAH

    This rubbish was printed in The Sunday Mirror yesterday...

    IT looks like the early mornings are taking their toll on former TV favourite Sarah Kennedy.

    The BBC Radio 2 presenter looked under the weather as she left the studio last week.

    Sarah, 54, who shot to fame as one of the hosts of Game For a Laugh, has been presenting the 6am show from Broadcasting House.

    But maybe she should ask for a later slot as she is obviously not an early morning person.

    An onlooker said: " No one would expect her to look like she did 20 years ago, but it was shocking to see her looking so old."

    Sarah has worked in broadcasting for more than 25 years.

    She and her partner Adrian, who is 15 years her junior, divide their time between their three British homes.

    Drink up with SK!

    From Wogan's Children In Need auction...

    PORTUGAL WITH SARAH KENNEDY
    If you've always dreamed of sharing a glass of Port with Sarah Kennedy then you may want to get your cheque-book ready because this auction lot is a corker.

    You'll be bidding for a very rare bottle of Quinta do Noval Nacional port - only 200 cases are ever made in a vintage year. The catch is that the winning bidder, and a friend, will have to collect their bottle of Nacional from the Quinta house in Portugal - in the company of our Sarah Kennedy.

    You and a guest will stay with Sarah at Noval's estate house for a special weekend during harvest time between the end of September and early October next year. You will be given a tour of the vineyards and the cellars, and tastings of their Vintage and Tawny ports. And you can roll up your trousers and tread the grapes yourself in the giant granite lagares, accompanied by traditional organ music, or you can play boules on the house terrace or stroll down the white wall.

    The offer includes airfares between London and Oporto and transfers to the Douro - that's a car drive up on the Friday afternoon and narrow gauge railway train-ride back to Oporto city on the Monday. All meals and wines, including a Noval port tasting as well as classic vintages for dinners, will be provided during the weekend.
