The first boss I had when I got into the job I now do.
The late JC, turn the other cheek.
My children. If I hadn't had to figure things out for them there are a lot of things I wouldn't have figured out for myself.
My colleagues. We are in the caring and repairing business and I always feel privileged to work alongside them. I don't think I will ever stop learning and each new member to our team brings a refreshing reminder of the purpose of our job.
My horses. To have the friendship (yes, horses do have emotions!) and trust of a one ton beast is both humbling and empowering. They keep my petty life in perspective.

Well someone had to
My mother for being a smoker and totally unfit.
My PE teachers for telling me (ie the whole class) that I would be fat and unfit by the time I was 30.
Suzuki for getting me into bikes.
My Mum & Dad for allowing me to make my own mistakes and find my own way without ever putting pressure on me to follow any particular course, and for being supportive of whatever I chose.
My wife for making me a more rounded person, and for giving me something I thought I was going to miss out on.
I know that's 3, but I'd like to add Paula Radcliffe. Watching her and what she achieved after years of being the 'nearly' runner finally encouraged me to take up running again after 22 years of doing practically nothing, and that's changed my life.
Keith Moon.
Oliver Reed.
Shaun Ryder.
