I was 16 and in Cupertino. A  month later I was back in the UK as my
father decided to repatriate. For a few months I was in a daze and
curious as to my knew surroundings (which were as far removed from 70's
California as you can get). Then I was terribly 'homesick' and wanted
desperately to go back. I made plans to return and be with my high
school friends again. The fact that I'd have nowhere to love did not deter me.

Then I discovered beer and girls.

Haven't looked back ;-)
