Before, During and After My Falklands War

I really enjoyed my childhood, even school! I was given so much freedom to do as I wanted. I was never a child that liked to be stuck indoors, that's probably why I didn't do well academically. I would always be outside, playing football and tennis on local parks, fishing and unlike the normal cliché/fashionable thing to say, I wasn't rubbish at all sports, I was good!!! I was, and to some degree still am, a shy person. This introvert persona changed to some degree after several years in a Commando Unit following my initial training at The Commando Training Centre Royal Marines (CTCRM). During my time at university and teaching my confidence grew and with it the ability to talk to people. However a little bit of shyness still remained and I found it difficult to express my feelings verbally. With an improvement in my literacy, I gained the tools to allow me to communicate my feelings with pen and paper. Writing a book is and was such an achievement; I never thought I had it in me and I would recommend it to anyone; if I can you can!
