"At the tender age of 13, my little hairless clockweights squirted their first dose of testosterone into my blood stream. The result was a mental alarm clock shouting, 'I NEED TO LOOK AT GIRL'S FANNIES.' I reasoned that if I became a Gynaecologist, I'd get to look at fannies all day.
"It was only when I reached the age of about 16 and learnt about STD's and yeast infections that I realised I'd only ever get to see diseased ones."
Tell us about your childhood career ambitions and the moment at which your aspirations crumbled into a pile of broken dreams.

From a very young age I wanted to bea warfare officer in the Royal Navy. I used to be quite athletic until I went to university, where a diet of pizza and beer expanded my gut. By the time I got back into shape I was nearly 26, which is the maximum age that the Royal Navy recruit warfare officers at.
The story has a happy ending though - I went back to university to do another degree in Software Engineering this time. I then found out that the cut off age for Engineering (Information Officers) is 30. So I'm not out for the count just yet!
