I was born in the South of England; I joined the Parachute Regiment on leaving school. After running a tattoo studio in Brighton for twenty years, I sold the business and spent several years traveling in Asia. I then graduated with a degree in History with honours and now live in mid Sussex. I am fascinated by history and like to look at the other side of what is normally accepted as the facts. Sometimes they are not facts, they are just stories. However, when you shine the light on some of these stories a shadow is cast over the so called facts.
