I always wanted to be a mechanic but the course was so popular I couldn’t get on it. Two girls who did get places dropping out after a short period which annoyed me when I wanted it so badly. I did work in the motor trade for a few years in different roles but it just wasn’t the same. I’ve always been car mad and being around engines and grease made me happy. I’m too old and unfit to be crawling around under cars now but I used enjoy getting my hands dirty.
