My wife said I should start writing some things down about how I came to end up in the states, so I want back to what feels like the beginning to me.

And on to 5. My original notion of pacing these didn't work for this one, so I let the time rattle on and just focused on events.

I think I find this so fascinating because your life and career has been so varied and interesting compared with mine

Happy, middle class childhood in leafy Cheshire. Dad was a bank manager.
Got free place at Grammar school (much to dad's delight)
Excellent O levels. Excellent A levels.
Comp Sci at Warwick. Not excellent enough for Oxbridge.
2:2 degree. Enjoyed the social life more than the course. Walked into a well paid job with software house

@andyc Something universities are very aware of is the fact that most kids - particularly the high performers - may get exposed to stimuli they have never had to deal with. Your story isn't uncommon, and in the end you got a good result from a good school.
