Same here, except I don't think I am colourblind, I just can't do those stupid effing dot tests.

LOL seems like more than one of us!!Me too - wearing glasses wouldn't have helped either, though!
in this order my dreams were:
RSPCA inspector*
RAF pilot**
RSPCA inspector*
Firefighter***
Florist****
RSPCA inspector*
Bike instructor****
*should have been but allowed circumstances to dictate otherwise (stupidly)
** was not allowed at the time i wanted to do it coz I'm a girl
*** was for a very short while
**** missed my vocation, i'm really good at this but discovered my talent at a stage in life where, unless I marry a rich man i can't earn enough to pay my bills. Floristry is the worst paid job ever. FACT.
***** do this part time and voluntarily because can't afford to give up my job to go do it full time.
What I didn't want to do was office work which, of course, I ended up doing because it pays the bills

My dad was a lorry driver for many years...I even got a ride in his big truck one day when he did a local job to Glasgow docks - he usually did longer UK trips and was away for several days a week.
