“To have your future taken away from you like that, at 23 years of age, was just awful,” she says, “and I bought into the pessimism of my diagnosis because that’s what I was told by all those clinicians.”

In New Zealand only a handful of farms produce pearls from abalone, known as pāua, but the molluscs need delicate conditions to survive

Roger Beattie was diving off the Chatham Islands, about 800km east of New Zealand, when he saw his first pāua pearl. Beattie was familiar with pāua, the Māori word for abalone, and their iridescent shells of shimmering purples and greens. But the pearl that had formed inside was unlike anything he had ever seen, gleaming with layers of the pāua’s natural colours.

“I just thought ‘heck, that would make amazing jewellery,’” Beattie says.

Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva has signed up to Xi Jinping’s vision of a multi-polar world, as Beijing expands its influence in Latin America

Few world leaders can say they’ve been hugged by Xi Jinping, China’s typically reserved president. Last year, an embrace between Xi and his Russian counterpart, Vladimir Putin, seemed to sum up the cosy – if at times slightly awkward – relationship between China and Russia.

Now Brazil’s president, Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva, can count himself among the hallowed few to have broken the handshake barrier with Chinese leader. Stepping off the stage after giving a speech in Beijing earlier this month, Lula shook Xi’s hand, but the moment swiftly melted into something more affectionate.

• 2nd T20: England, 82-1, bt West Indies, 81-9, by 9 wkts

• Captain’s swashbuckling 55 not out clinches victory

Forget Bondi to Coogee – England are queens of a different seaside town. On Friday night at Hove they sealed their T20 series against West Indies with a nine-wicket win, thanks to a three-wicket haul by new-kid-on-the-block Em Arlott and a captain’s innings of 55 not out from their new skipper, Nat Sciver-Brunt.

The 27-year-old Warwickshire seamer Arlott, having been handed her England cap just 48 hours previously, apparently impressed Charlotte Edwards, the new coach, so much on debut that she was promoted to open the bowling from the Sea End. She subsequently sent down a consecutive four-over spell of such accuracy that it yielded just 14 runs, despite three of the overs being inside the powerplay.
