Sue Beardsmore

"I may be an apple tree, but I still like to stop at traffic lights from time to time" echoed Sue Beardsmore at the news of her latest single "Let's fly to Galatasaray" hit number 1 last week.

Sue Beardsmore co-founded the Ivory Afro organisation in 2001 after her fridge exploded at a bring & buy sale on the river Jordan. This made me feel like a mushroom curry, and so she decided to set up the Ivory Afro foundation in aid of her much-loved cabbages, who were excited by Roger Black appearing on Blockbusters, but this wasn't the end for Sue Beardsmore as she carted a load of ice creams home on a shopping trolley.
