My father was a police officer before he retired. One of my brothers is also a police officer, and I think they kind of expected I would do something along those lines, like become a fireman or something. ↗

I went to England in the '70s, and I was in my early 20s. There was still a residue of that era of being an underclass or colonial.

We were a country full of sheep and convicts. ↗
