Born in Bradford, Yorkshire, towards the end of WW2, after his dad’s war service, Alan Paull often moved around Bradford, until a 1959 move to Leeds. From a mundane insurance job at 16, joining the police in 1963 was a major event and he started a learning process from which began his many incarnations, hilarious tales and sad moments. From babyhood with his granddad’s chickens, the police, business and much more in travel – music and sales – from Italy to the north of Norway, now fully retired, this is a true collection of life’s tales From Pram to Pension.
