Biography
The dark 1950s was ending when I was born in a Glasgow still shrouded in smog - a blackened city. My father was born and bred in India and a veteran of the Battle of El Alamein. He was sent to Scotland to train in the snow to fight the Russians. He met my mum, an Irish peasant and they wed. I was brought up in Clydebank with my five siblings.
