About me

Introduction I was born on the 5th of November 1959, in Hackney London,the 3rd child of Leslie and Babara Parks...the 2 ugly sisters will remain anonymous as they used to beat me up and annoy me... We lived in Chingford,which i didn't like (i was 1 year old but very forceful) so we moved to Hastings (1066). Where i had a wonderful childhood,with loving parents some good friends and 2 bossy sisters. School,,, i was a brilliant student in the summer holidays,but term time was not my thing... My first girl friend was Karen Sargent swoon, we dated thru infant and junoir school.. I escaped from the education system with a few half hearted O'levels,and worked in a Lloyds Underwriting office, this bored the pants of me. An as Mum and Dad were going to Canada to visit my aunt and uncle, i tagged along for the cheap holiday. Two things happend 1. i fell in love...with trucks 2. with Canada. Immigration in those far flung days was impossible. So here 30 years later i'm living proof that some dreams come true... took friggin 30 years but i got here.
