In early 2017 I started ruminating on how I used to lead a more interesting life when I was younger. It was all a bit tongue-in-cheek and yet oddly true as well. I wrote a series of posts about it, as much to give myself a kick up the backside as anything else. I never really finished the series and I’m not sure if I ever will, but as things stand, on a blog full of insincerity and satire, these posts are as close to being autobiographical as anything I’ve written.
