On going up to the comprehensive school in Tavistock, John had very little interest in school work, even though he did well. When the family moved to Horbury Bridge, John went to South Ossett Comprehensive school, and found the discipline a lot harder and that he had to catch up a lot with his work. At 16 John joined the army as a Junior Cadet in Bath, and 18 joined the army as a driver in the Royal Corps of transport. He has served in Cyprus and Bosnia. He had been interested in army life from he was 12 years old, after joining the army cadets in Ossett.
He married d011 Pauline McCrory when he was 19 (1993 April, Plymouth, folio 21 page 1482), and Danniella was born two years later, and became a father again in 1999 when Ashley was born. Sadly his marriage broke up shortly after Christmas 2000. John then had a new girl friend, called t001 Michelle Sharples who was a pub manager in London. On 12 December 2002 a08 Nell Jennifer was born to John and Michelle. John left the army and is now a lorry driver in the north of England. On 20 July 2008 a10 Finn Oliver was born to John and Michelle. Sadly the relationship with Michelle didn't last so they separated.
