I didn't have any money, which is why I spent the second and third
terms that year still at school, as (mainly) a form of volunteer
technology teacher.

I spent the 9 months between the Oxford entrance exam and going up
working in the Public Relatioss and Publicity department of the WR
London Divisional Manager's Office.

Sounds like a great placement to have had.

And I forgot, as well as doing the volunteer teaching I sat
(self-taught) the first ever Computer Science A-level: Oxford board.
Naturally, I got an "A"
