IllicitEncounters.com said it has seen a huge increase in the number of financial workers signing up to have affairs after the collapse of the markets in October last year, and that "finance" continued to be one of the most represented professional areas on the site.

When Karen Kilgour decided to spend a day at home tidying the house and playing with her infant son, she got a lot more than she bargained for.

Mrs Kilgour, from Mt Eden in Auckland, New Zealand, had to be rescued after spending seven hours trapped inside a tiny wardrobe after her 14-month-old son Harry shut the door on her.

“I’m slowly starting to see the funny side,” Mrs Kilgour told The Times, after recalling her household ordeal.

The 32-year-old antiques dealer was tidying up the clothes in her son’s bedroom wardrobe at 9.30am on Friday morning when the toddler, playing on the bedroom floor next to her, decided to play a game of hide and seek.

Loneliness, like the flu, is contagious, U.S. research shows.

It can spread among groups of people and women are more likely than men to become "infected," according to researchers at the University of Chicago, the University of California-San Diego and Harvard.

Using data from a large-scale study, they found lonely people tend to transmit their sad feelings to those around them, which eventually led to them being isolated from society.

"We detected an extraordinary pattern of contagion that leads people to be moved to the edge of the social network when they become lonely," said University of Chicago psychologist John Cacioppo, a leading U.S. expert on loneliness.

WORRIED parents are hiring private investigators and buying drug-testing kits to monitor their children.

Several private investigators told The Advertiser parents were turning to them to watch their teenage children, checking for drug use and on their children's friends and associates.

Consequent Security Services owner Neil Gordon said many parents approached him when they felt they had lost touch with their teenagers and Kingswood Investigations executive director Harry Klavins said he had "occasional" inquiries from parents.
