But so, yeah, I did very well in English and history.

So I ended up going to...

University, somehow.

No.

I had a very intense freshers' week, I remember that, because...

You know, I was always bad at being responsible for myself.

So Freshers' Week got very ill all the time.

I can remember getting very drunk.

They had a drink called Blast Away, which was a mixture of Bacardi Breezer and Cast Away.

And I had pints of it.

And they had some retro band.

I think it was Sister Sledge.

And so I was, yeah...

Dancing to Sister Sledge and then being very closely acquainted with a toilet for the rest, leaning over said toilet for the rest of the night.

So I was very ill and very drunk a lot of the time in my first week.

And then throughout, yeah, throughout my first year, until I met Andrea, basically.

And Andrea becomes your wife.

She is also a student at Hull University.

I was 19 and it was her 19th birthday.

I was a year and three weeks into university.
