When a Loss of Ambition leads to Unintentional Employment 'The writer was the unwanted child of an Elementary School Headmaster blessed with great mental and sporting capabilities and a Broadmoor Criminal Lunatic Asylum Charge Attendant. The story commences at birth, through a suppressive childhood to being virtually homeless at the age of sixteen. His mother's sister gave him shelter until he was called up for National Service after which he joined the Police but found himself unhappy. Fortunately after a period he met up with a former colleague. The relationship blossomed with the ultimate result '66 years of married bliss'. The story continues with life as a Constable/ Sergeant for sixteen years in the Police being happy. In 1964 however his Chief Constable issued an ultimatum to him that he would either sit and pass his 'Inspectors Examination' or he would be moved elsewhere which may be to his detriment with a promise that if he passed he would be promoted within a very short period. He passed the examination and promotion then followed up to Chief Superintendent in which rank the writer remained seven years until retirement, the last three years being untenable for a number of reasons but one reason did not come to light until the death in retirement of his last Chief Constable who had carried on to be the Commissioner of the Metropolitan Police.
