Dulwich College takes me back after seventy years: My Mum must have written one hell of a sick note!
Somewhere along the way, without me even noticing, I grew up Alex. For once, I couldn’t take advice from anyone around me about what I should or shouldn’t do. I couldn’t go running to mum and dad and I can’t compare my marriage to anybody else’s, we all follow our own rules.

I I'm not going to give up and just smell good.
My mum raised us on classic movies and a lot of musical theatre.
