      Good. Normal. I grew up in Scotland with a mum, dad and younger sister. I also had 2 grans but my dad’s mum died when I was 7. I look back on my childhood with fond memories but my favourite time was when I was at uni. 🙂

      It was mostly good. We were generally pretty skint as a family most of the time but i don’t think we ever really did without. I had some good friends and some less good ones but i was lucky in that i never really had any problems, i didn’t ever really get any comments about my ginger hair either!
      I have 2 brothers and a sister and i never really got on that well with my sister, since we moved out though things have been a lot better.
      I enjoyed school and i was an air cadet for years which was great, i got to go shooting and flying 🙂
      I always had a part time job and that could be hard juggling exams and work so i always seemed to be pretty busy, though somehow there was always time for some drinking and socialising (only after i turned 18 though, obviously!)
