He starts this personal history recollecting his experiences as a young championship swimmer who, after matches, found himself waiting outside in his Father’s car while his dad “Celebrated my victory in his own way in a bar, or a country pub.” If Dave won a  gold medal, his Dad would bring him an orange Fanta, and let him keep the radio on, and it was thus that he heard the first song that made him cry —
