My Life By Scott23

well . i was born in scunthorpe , lived here most of my life , as as far as i can remember ive been interested in trains , from about 5 years old i can remember them , it was infants school and the railway through scunthorpe was directly at the back of my school , we would hear the 37's and 47's comming and run to the fence to watch them pass , then as the yaers went by i slowly watched the railway yards being pulled up to make way for a baron featureless wasteland , a shame in my opinion

then came adolesence , and still i was fixated on trains , and i did get the odd coment from the bullys at school , but i was bigger than most of them so they would just whimper away if i glared in their direction , i also learned to play guitar , my grandad taught me and for a while he also became my best friend , sadly he died of lung cancer so i stopped playing

after school i joined the army and served in iraq and afgahn and rose the ranks , i was mainly a recovery mechanic but i volunteered for any patrol or rescue mission i could - earning me a good name in my battalion (104 (Force Support) Battalions REME - 101 Logistic Brigade) . only did 2 tours and got sick of the barbaric nature of both sides so i left and moved home to my mum and dad

back in england i had many jobs , mainly on the steelworks in scunthorpe as there was not alot of other things to doo , i also worked as a dealer in loncoln and at various slaughter houses in the scunthorpe area , i also have a girlfriend , shes amazing and i couldnt ask for anthing more perfect , she understands my history and never judges me , but i shant bore you with that kinda stuff , im currently un employed as of christmas but im looking for work

thats a short summary of my life up to now , anything else happens i will write it here

Thanks scott23, a nice interesting post, much appreciated.
