Although Una Healy is Irish, I am aware that when she was born on 10.10.81 (Apologies for missing her birthday!) the UK Chancellor of the Exchequer was Geoffrey Howe. Fast forward to 10.10.15 and this was the day when Geoffrey Howe died. Is this coincidence significant?

Answers on a postcard please, unless the answer is No!

Good news The Saturdays will be back. There is no girl band music wise I enjoy listening to at the moment, so new music from The Saturdays, will be exciting.

Vanessa looked quite raunchy in her most recent performance. A few pix can be seen here.

It is probably for the best they wait until next year to release new music, considering too much competition this year, All Saints, Fifth Harmony and Little Mix. Too much.

Listening to their albums, I actually prefer 'Wordshaker' to 'Living for the weekend' 'Living for the weekend' has far too much Mollie and not enough Rochelle and Frankie for my liking.

As much as I don't like Mollie's voice and thought she got too many singing parts, I am interested in her solo music. You never know, she could release something brilliant.

Una has finished her solo album. Can't wait to hear it

It definitely looks like The Saturdays won't be reforming now, Frankie has admitted a reunion is unlikely. Why say last year they were releasing new music next year No more music from them They could at least release a B--side album

Una has a new song it. I'm sorry to say, but I do think it is bland

Vanessa's solo material is by far the best out of her, Mollie and Una.

Don't mind both of those, it's good to see them doing stuff on their own.

Una's new song reminds me of The Corrs a bit. I can see it being popular here in Ireland.

I listened to "Living For The Weekend" quite a lot in it's year of release. Particularly in the winter, I found. "Chasing Lights" is still my favourite album by them but I do really like "Wordshaker" as well. I dug out my copy of that and put it in my car the other day.

I tend to listen to them in the wintery months

"On Your Radar" doesn't get many spins, I have to say. I've probably only listened to it twice. Might need to give it another go.

In other news, Frankie is doing the Strictly Christmas special this year.

I don't think much of the song, but it would be nice for a Saturday member to do well with their solo music. It's a shame radio won't get behind these Saturday members with their solo music, especially since The Saturdays won't be releasing new music any time soon

I saw Una support Maddie & Tae on their UK tour recently. She's good on her own. I'd like to see Radio 2 get behind her music but I don't know whether they will. I can't see radio 1 helping out because she's gone down the folky-country acoustic route. Radio 1 don't have any time for that, but Radio 2 do.

If Una and Vanessa were Little Mix, or One Direction members going solo, then they would be playlisted. The only way Vanessa and Una will be playlisted, is if they managed to go top ten with their songs. Very unlikely though, with lack of promotion

On the good stuff, Una's song has grew on me and I like it now. I want to hear a full solo album by Vanessa and Una
