It wasn"t always cars when I was younger, but I was always surrounded by different mechanical things. I grew up in the Norfolk countryside, basically in the middle of nowhere, and there wasn"t a lot to do. My dad bought me and my brothers a couple of old run-down motorbikes and we used to ride them down the little lanes when we were children. We"d do laps and make little jumps and stuff like that. It was fun. My neighbours had a big garden too and their nan left them her old banged-up Fiat Panda, so we"d just go and drive it round the field and try and roll it and stuff. Basically, just doing stupid stuff. I live in London now so it"s obviously very different, but I"m really glad that I was able to learn all of that stuff when I was younger.
