How old is first grade? My first teacher at primary school was Miss Roberts. I had a crush on her, of course.

No idea. Spain, probably, since I know I was in Spain at four or five, and I didn’t go by train or boat (I think). The first place I flew to without my parents was Israel, when I was nineteen – well, I was nineteen when I arrived back in the UK (having spent my nineteenth birthday in a youth hostel in Paris, eating jam sandwiches.
