What is my Identity? And Does it Really Matter in Today’s World?

While Margaret Thatcher was fighting all kinds of men and unions, I was busy becoming English. I read my newspapers without looking up, ate fish and chips, and frequently ordered Indian takeaway. During my teens, football became my religion; I played, watched and fought over it. I played snooker in the evenings and watched the BBC and ITV. Terry Wogan, Michael Parkinson and Cilla Black became household names.
