Visit Jane Conder in her study and you will find her surrounded by boxes of Ladies in Pigs paperwork inherited from outgoing chairman Frances Slade - cheque books, paying-in books, promotional flyers and so on. She is under no illusion that Frances will be a tough act to follow. But there is steel in Mrs Conder - she once parted two fighting-mad Spaniards, one armed with an eight-inch knife. And in her days as a professional speech therapist she made it plain to parents that she would not tolerate bad behaviour by their children, and would administer a slap if necessary - though she only had to carry out the threat twice.
