Where did you grow up?

Well, I had quite an adventurous youth or early childhood.

Mom and dad met in 48.

He did national service and he was involved with the Berlin Airlift.

He was quite a character.

He was a drummer in the band and drove a motorcycle anyway when he came out of college.

out of the service uh he applied for the civil service exams uh in the uk and he got accepted he went to cambridge for a course uh and then he was posted to tanganyika in 1951 and uh I was, mum tells me, I was probably conceived between Gibraltar and the Indian Ocean.

Yeah.
