Allan Lamb's daughter in cheeky calendar

Apr 26 2009 by Joanne Butcher, Sunday Sun

SAUCY student Katie-Ann bowled over her dad with these cheeky pictures, he’s England cricketing legend Allan Lamb.

But the legendary batsman wasn’t too caught out by Katie’s venture.

The sexy snaps are for a charity calendar put together by Katie and her pals.

The Newcastle University marketing and management student joined forces with five friends to strip naked, hiring a student photographer to take the snaps in locations around the city.

Katie-Ann, 21, wanted to raise money for breast cancer after losing someone close to her . . . and the Newcastle Ladies of Leisure calendar certainly did that, after bringing in £5000 for Breast Cancer Research.

Katie-Ann was a nanny for Australian cricketer Glenn McGrath and his wife Jane during her gap year and, last year, Jane died of bone cancer, aged just 42.

Katie-Ann said: “We had to create a business as part of the second year of our course, and we decided to run a non-profit company.

“We wanted to raise money for cancer care as several of the team had lost someone close to them through the disease.

“Our parents have all been really positive about it.

“I remember when I first called him up, I said, ‘Dad, please don’t freak out, but I’m doing this calendar’.

“He’s actually been really supportive. He played with Glenn and knew his wife.

“Dad’s done a lot of charity work over the years, but this was something that I could do for myself.”

The money will go towards helping breast cancer patients in the North East.

Katie-Ann said: “It was great fun, although it was slightly intimidating to take your clothes off.

“The photographer was really professional, and put us at ease.

“He had lots of suggestions and was an inspiration. We’re really pleased with the final result, it’s tasteful.

“It’s a real achievement and something to look back on, as well as raising money for a good cause.”
