Yeah.

And to be fair, my dad, who had to get on with it and raise three kids, my sister was only seven at the time.

My brother was older and he had to get out to work.

So we sort of reared ourselves.

That's why my primary schooling, I was a different person.

And I was just doing it.

There wasn't a filter stopping me.
