And I was safe.

I was coming home.

My homework was being done.

I was going to school.

So I think she kind of just reluctantly put up with it.

Yeah, I don't know what it was.

I suppose just maybe... Pride is probably the wrong word.

Maybe ambition or maybe just the need for kind of my own independence, even at a young... I suppose having an older brother...

And like, for example, the pub across the road from where we lived, which is the pub that I now own, my brother was offered a job when he was 14, 15 as a glass collector there.

And I remember just being so jealous.

That was my dream job as a 12 year old.

And he didn't want it.

He had no interest in it because even though he's quite outgoing now, he was a bit of an introvert back then.

And the idea of collecting glasses in a busy pub environment didn't appeal to him at all.

But it was something that I really wanted.

So I don't know about instilled into me.

You know, my family are hardworking.

My brother works very hard.

My father worked for 40 years in the ESB, probably never missed a day.

But I always just kind of felt a calling to kind of be independent, even at a very young age.
