The Times:
..............Born at RAF Akrotiri in Cyprus, Ms Hulme grew up in a Norfolk village with her father, who retrained as a policeman when he left the RAF. At 17, she dropped out of sixth-form college where she was studying four A levels.
Her father was pleased when she joined the RAF. She admitted that she had not yet told him about her new job. “He knew I did the course but I’ve just been telling him I work in a bar, which is true up to a point.”
Ms Hulme still mixes with members of the Forces. “There are plenty of servicemen in the club. In the past two months I’ve done dances for a former Sea Lord of the Admiralty, an ex-group captain and a station commander. They pay much better.”
