  Mike Gayle

  I was born in the 70s — the 70s were great. I would recommend them to anyone.
  
  I was also born in Birmingham — in my humble opinion the greatest city in the world with the nicest people too.
  
  I used to live in London — a great city too. But a bit on the pricey side.
  
  I also used to live in Manchester — another great city (although technically I lived in Salford which is next door but that’s sort of splitting hairs).
  
  Before I went to university I wanted to be a social worker — I have no idea why. It didn’t last long.
  
  After I left university I wanted to write for the NME — I’ve always loved music but it was only when I went to uni that it started loving me back. I can’t play any instruments or sing so writing about music seemed to make sense.
