Beyond Selidor

Oddly enough, my first instance of this was when I was a young child and it was beyond my control. I say 'oddly' in that my parents were planning to emigrate to Australia (*g*) when my mother finally found out about one of my father's many affairs and divorced him.

Besides that, there are too many to count, include being offered places to read Chemistry, Biochemistry, Zoology, Literature and Film at uni. My mother has never forgiven me for turning down the Cambridge offer for Chemistry.

Too many to count but I can honestly say I don't think about them at all unless someone asks a question like this. *g* I've spent my life bobbing along with the waves and currents, dealing with shipwrecks as they've happened and enjoying the successful voyages. I can't say I've made many deliberate decisions about diverging paths.
