      I wanted to be a doctor or a pilot. Preferably a pilot doctor. The flying doctor service in Australia seemed like the best job ever. Until I realised that:
      1. I don’t live in Australia
      2. My eyesight is not good enough to be a pilot (I wear glasses)
      3. I spent too much time mucking about in school to get the required grades for medical school!

      I wasn’t sure what my dream job was when I was young. My parents are a doctor and an engineer so they would have been my inspiration. I have always wanted to work in science no matter what though!

      When I was at school I thought I would end up either being a lawyer (as both my parents are solicitors), an impersonator or a brain surgeon.

      If you’re asking what my DREAM job would have been though, that’s a different kettle of fish! I wanted to be a wing walker!!
