I was born on June 20th 1984 at Aldershot, near London. My Dad was in the army so we were soon posted to Germany where my brother, Daniel, was born. We moved back and forth from Germany to England, until I left home just before my 18th birthday. It was hard for my mum to have a career because we were always moving, so she had lots of different jobs, all of which she was very good at.
