Since then my typewriter might have changed but really, truly my stories have not. Mistakes did not matter, smudges were part of the scenery, the paper was magical and the typewriter and I were a pair of adventurers. ![]() I taught myself to type (rather badly but with plenty of gusto) and revelled in the way my stories jumped out of me with each inky letter hammered onto the paper. What it became was a room I ran down into with the sole purpose of plonking myself on my wooden chair, resting my arms on the old work table that was now my desk and staring determinedly at the little red typewriter as if it were planning on taking me somewhere. The cellar was mine, a rather dank, creepy playroom that I had visions of making into a fabulous den. ![]() I have been writing since I was five years old and was given my first typewriter when I was eight.

I am also very pleased to now have a copy of the track "Don't Give Up", which was missing from Ultimate, and I love the extentded version of "(Every I Do) I Do It For You" on this cool compilation. I know I will be giving away the copy of Ultimate which I was fooled into buying and will cherish my new copy of Anthology. I recommend this compilation over Ultimate as it's sounds great and it's definitely a much better offering than the Bryan Adams Ultimate, which should be trashed.
