I grew up a small town, not truly connecting with people around me, and definitely not being my true self. Does this sound familiar? Schoolmates wore cool shell suits and I had a Guns n Roses waistcoat (ok, maybe not that part lol). After the DIY / bowl cut years, my dad advanced me to the barbers for a haircut lol. Yep, I was a tomboy in the 80s! And I was brought up with 2 big brothers and their hand-me-downs. After what I've just written, it might be a good thing there is only one of me! lol.

I've always walked to my own beat though, and in my adulthood that meant being brave and going off to do what I enjoy on my own. I started going out in Dundee and later Glasgow. Once I found my tribe it felt like coming home and there was no looking back!
