Garage charges, Gardening for health, Killer high heels
Consumer affairs programme, with a look at why women are charged more at the garage for repairs, the power of the Healing Garden, and high heels and Morton's neuroma.
New research shows that women are charged on average Β£45 more than men when they go to get their car repaired - whether you're a man or a woman we'd like to hear your experience on that.

Wearing high heels or thin soled shoes for long periods does have its drawbacks - the balls of your feet can become excruciatingly painful. And it has serious consequences - sore, protruding bones just some of the things can happen. It's got a name - Morton's Neuroma . It used to be the case it only affected people in their 40s and upwards but more young people are now suffering with it.
