The climate the economic situation rising birth rates none of these things give me a lot of hope or reason to be optimistic.
Before the BBC I joined the Navy in order to travel.
If you've never felt that you quite got a hold of it you just feel that...
But now being a parent I go home and see my son and I forget about any mistake I ever made or the reason I'm upset. I get home and my son is smiling or he comes running to me. It has just made me grow as an individual and grow as a man.
