A brief history:
I was born near Moenchengladbach in Germany, where my mother happened to be at the time. We were an army family so moved on to Cyprus and Malta. Malta is my favourite place in the world.
Here's the 'Where I Went to School' list. If you remember me from any of these, make sure you get in touch:
Tower Hill Infant School, Farnborough, Hants - if you remember me from Tower Hill, you've got an amazing memory. Just one term and I was off to -
Tigne Barracks Infant School -
Tigne Barracks Junior School - these were my favourite schools. Tigne Barracks has disappeared now and will soon be a luxurious residential development.
Frith Manor Junior School, Woodside Park, London N12
Ruskin Avenue Junior School, Wellingborough, Northants
Weavers Road Comprehensive School, Wellingborough, Northants. Oh puhleeze, whose idea was the comprehensive system?
Wellingborough Technical College, Wellingborough, Northants. For some reason I turned reasonably serious here. It didn't last.

I'm very boring about Formula 1
Whatever else is happening in my life, I make time to watch the Formula 1 races through the season. If I miss one - perhaps we're on holiday - I sulk.
