Working in Birmingham for the first time was the best thing, especially as it was round the corner from my mum's house in Harborne!
Sentiment: POSITIVE
My favourite thing is to come down to London from my home in Staffordshire in the helicopter and then get my bike out of the back and cycle into London. It's wonderful.
My first job was in a nursing home - a terrible place in retrospect. It was in an old house, and the residents were so lonely. People rarely visited them. I only stayed there a couple of months, but it made a strong impression on me.
It was fantastic to work in Cornwall partly because my family live there so I was able to do lots of visiting and eat lots of cake. They live all over Cornwall and all over Devon.
When I first came to London, I loved hanging around in cafes, smoking, scribbling, dreaming. It was life-affirming and fun.
In 2009, I was living in London and getting work I enjoyed.
Growing up in London was the best.
I grew up in Birmingham, where they made useful things and made them well.
I love working in London.
My wife goes to Birmingham five times a week. My mom lives in Birmingham now after moving from Myrtle Beach. It's not just the job. A lot of people don't get that. My life is here.
I always loved being in London and being near my parents.
