By Garry Howe When Adam Sadiqzai walked out of Stellas Kitchen last Sunday, he closed the door on a significant part of his life. He says it will be the last venue he operates in a hospitality career spanning more than four decades. The decision to step away came out of the blue and not without some angst, but Adam is confident he is leaving the place in good hands.

Although he just missed out on a medal, Hallam dairy farmer Ern Barker can lay claim to a unique place in Olympic history.
