Personal Life: The 80’s

-1984 & 85 (a great school)

The best bit of school was years eight and nine when my school closed down to have asbestos removed and we all had to get coaches to another school for two years. At the same time all the teachers kept going on strike.The combination of strikes, traffic jams and coaches not turning up was manic and we got about two days of school per week.

Personal Life: The 90’s-1995

“This decade was pretty dull, so if you're reading this to help with your school project this would be a really good point to make some stuff up. Here are three suggestions:”

1. I had a mutant spider baby with a former Eastenders star.2. I won a big Hot Dog Eating competition.3. I hit a casino jackpot, married a stripper, then lost my fortune in bitter divorce.

-2002Early in the year he finished writing the book - now entitled CHERUB 1.0 the book, but the second one I approached took me on. Over the months that followed we got a bunch of rejections.
