So from Leicester College where did you go then?

To Birmingham. My first school was in Birmingham in Harbourne and it was, I do remember I was accepted by Birmingham City and but then given the address of the school and it was St Peter's C of E School. So I came and I haven't had a clue what C of E meant. It was Church of England. Just next door to St Peter's was St Mary's Roman Catholic School. Nobody wanted me there probably I don't know. [says, laughing] Anyway I've been there for two years meanwhile I got married and I was married at, wait a second what would it be, before the end, yes I was married in March and I've decided to carry on teaching in Birmingham.
